that does look pretty cool. Would have been nice if the LFO shapes were selectable per side, allowing dual Square or dual Triangle ALA the Lovetone Wobulator.


Yeah it would, but I'm not complaining. It's an incredibly delicious sounding pedal, and the buffer is one of those you always want on just because of the way it seems to improve signal. Just seems to give a little more back of everything when running it in my loop, particularly when splitting the signal between two amps.

Also, I've lusted after Lovetone pedals for a long time, but that's a lot of scratch for a pedal.

Also, if you love trem, then you'll appreciate this. The way I run my set up I have both the Chopper, the trem on my amp (Tremoverb), the reverb on my amp, and the reverb on the amp that's slaved to my tremoverb via my stereo pedals. Running one speed on the amp, another speed (or 2 depending on setting) on the Chopper, and then both verbs maxed is crazy cool sounding.

Add my Echolution 2D and...

mmmmmmmmmmmm.....Wobulator, best tremolo is Lovetone tremolo.


It certainly is a gorgeous sounding thing, particularly in stereo. :)

Alesis Ampliton has dual trems and can sometimes be found for cheap, if you can work with a desktop unit (and it requires an Alesis AC adapter).

There's an Alesis ampliton in a pawn shop near me for about £19.00 (approx 30 US dollars), I've been tempted to get it but because it's a desktop unit I've been put off by it.

Decent price, probably easily flipped if you don't like it, though the Bitrman or whatever it was is the one with the real cult following. Worth knowing that this is a pure digital effect--everything goes through the converters. (Same goes for my Adrenalinn, which is my go-to wild trem pedal. I would suggest it, but I doubt it'll work for OP if the Line 6 and the Slicer won't.)
