Detuner and octave for voice and copper.

Just a wet / dry for each effect type

This is digital.

UTILIZATION

Super simple. The big advantage is the internal preamp, which you can branch the live vocal microphone or instrument pedal.

SOUND QUALITY

I used it with a tenor sax.

The octaver is in serious, less in acute or synthetic ridiculous it sounds live. The Detuner is nice, great for making tablecloths is a little different from a chorus, you can do the test with a vst plugin.

Others are useless from my point of view for a sax (but some effects are generally effective for a sax).

OVERALL OPINION

This is a pedal to start in effects. It is very simple and convenient but limited. The preamp is not a mind-blowing quality but if you have a cell or a microphone that is entry level it is fine.

Another negative: there is always a delay between the note played and effect. Even if you download the preset is telling 0ms delay.

Certainly it is a few tens of milliseconds, but this is already too long to play rhythmic phrases or peaches. I say this because it is important, often on sax like effects to gain power, as if it were a paper clip or an electric guitar, then it will not be possible.

In short it will be perfect for making tablecloths, intros, long tones, but for funk or rock forget.

I tried a lot of effects on sax but little speech processors. Since I sold that there are lots of new things out, not sure at the moment with this budget I will take it.
