The only reason why I'm giving this pedal 4 stars instead of 5 is because there is no (or haven't figured out yet) switching the fuzz and drive without having to get down on your knee to do it. I have to say this is my first EH pedal and I was pleasantly surprised, Excellent quality sounding effects, full, deep reverbs, smooth tremolo, (limited but effective pitch shift) and decent tweakable drives and very responsive controls. I love effects that are easy to comprehend, my "sitting down in front of effect units for hours" days are long gone 'cause of work and the kids and of course the wife, so trying to get a pedal board together instead of dialing in and trying to crack nuclear defense codes into an effects processor seems like a good idea for now. Right now I've got the sans amp tri-ac for drive, the boss dd-20, delta lab chorus (which I'm thinking of changing for a higher end chorus pedal), a go go tuner, this particular unit, boss eq-20 and morley slim line wah, it's a very basic board but sounds pretty decent. Bottom line: It's a great pedal to have and if I had the cash I would definitely look into buying more EH pedals, starting with an early memory man.Read full review
It's not the best reverb out there (I'll always go for analog first), but it sounds deep and luscious, like playing in a huge cave, and non-audiophiles probably won't be able to tell it's not "real." PLUS, you get EHX's drippy, trippy, anti-hippy fuzz, which still holds up to more "metal" distortion pedals any day, and a really good tremolo effect to boot. My only issues are that the controls are a little clunky, you can't use more than one effect at a time, and the pitch shift function sounds goofy (but don't they all?). And even though you can use a 9 or 10 volt AC adapter to power it, it won't sound it's best unless you use an Electro Harmonix 9.6 volt adapter ($15 from EHX.com). This is truly a great sounding box, and when you look at the price of a cut-rate digital reverb AND the cheapest Big Muff Pi version, this pedal is clearly the best value. I recommend it for anyone who wants to color their tone without hiding the guitar, and for all but the most extreme forms of metal.Read full review
I usually stay away from pedal that do more than one thing or even that have to many options. Simple pedals are great & this one is just that but with multiple effects. The reverbs are amazing, seriously I was shocked at how great it was. The pitch shift is very fun. It has good tones & the overdrive is surprisingly decent. I’m amazed this thing is so cheap yet so good. Do buy it even for just the reverb or pitch shift.

Old tube amps had trem and reverb built in and we loved it and then hated trem when we got some new toys and then we started to love trem again but they stopped putting it in most amps, and amp reverb got trashy if they had it at all. Well this handles that old amp sound plus fuzz. That's about it, plenty of other pedals that do those things but this is an all in one for that sound and it's EHX so you know it's solid.

EHX's First and only Multi effects unit. To be honest, I am confused by this pedal. It only comes with 4 presets (plus the distortion and fuzz,) that sort of don't make sense together. 2 reverbs plus pitch shift and tremolo is kind of a bizarre choice for a multi-effects box. With that being said, the reverbs are actually not half bad. They seem to be based off of the Holy Grail verbs. The tremolo is decent, but doesn't have many options control wise. The pitch shift is the most interesting part of the pedal. I had mine modded which it more usable, but overall I still didn't find it completely necessary to keep. Still love EHX products, but this one doesn't do it for me.
