Very good for what it is - NOT for everyone
4 of 4 found this helpful I have some experience using this pedal for drum machines/keys and I enjoy the weird sludgy sound of its virtual tape delay: adding semi-crappy saturated effects to stark, pristine electronics can be a good thing. I like the fact that it is stereo, and since I am using it as a tabletop module, I like to play with both the rate and intensity at the same time... You can edge it up to feedback overload and get it to roar without going out of control. The reverb is not the greatest emulation of a spring, and it pings kinda oddly if hit hard. The "Bass" and 'Treble" knobs work more as cuts than gains for sculpting your signal (the pedal in general leans towards the midrange). This pedal is probably not the best for everyone, and I wouldn't ever suggest it as the only delay for a guitarist - it just doesn't DO clean, for example - but you should try it out and see if its particular flavor suits you. Its digital emulation of tape will do much longer delays than an analog delay, and the tap tempo is helpful. A Line 6 is a lot more versatile for the same price range, but doesn't really sound like this. If you want a really nice sounding tape emulation (and you have the bucks) look at Strymon's El Capistan (or Time Line!). If you want a real Space Echo but can't afford it (I certainly can't), well this probably doesn't really sound like a real Space Echo either. It does a good job of suggesting a saturated lo-fi dub delay.

The nadir of the Nazi Zombie movies - great if you Love TERRIBLE films!
I remember seeing this movie (also known as Oasis of the Zombies or Treasure of the Living Dead) on UHF TV many years ago, and perhaps I thought the film's poor quality was partly due to dodgy reception, but NO! Jess Franco seems to have decided to save money by hiring actors nobody else would dare to, and it looks like most of the budget was blown on a tank. The print quality and sound quality (complete with fizzy static and a great 60-cycle hum) of this edition are really terrible. Frankly, however, an absolutely pristine restored print of this sucker would not do much to redeem it. Incredibly poor camerawork, bafflingly stupid dialog and nitwitted hippie characters with bad haircuts abound. Some very funny zombie effects, some very brief nudity and a laughably absurd end... I really like watching incredibly horrible movies, but you have to be practically insane (as I am) to enjoy this one. I thought it was great!
If Shock Waves is the best of the Nazi Zombie movies, then this is surely the absolute worst.
