Goatkeeper 3 of course.
But at the end I don't need the fancy stuff for most of the stuff I play, so I will be happy with any tremolo, really!

They have ruined tremolo pedlols for me.

I have one and I love it a lot. It sounds really nice.

I've settled on a swindler effects red mountain!

I'll have to pop back in here to let you all know how it is.

I had gas for this one, so I'm interested in your thoughts.

Swooping in pointlessly late to drop a +1000 for the 80Tape Variable State Tremolo....

Aaaaaand read the thread, so late.... InifniPicard mode: activate.

Never tried a fancy tremolo. I like the Black Cat mini trem a friend of mine has, it just sounds really nice, volume and tone knobs so you can use it as a boost with zero trem depth. A/B'd it once with another friend's HardWire TR-7, which is more versatile, but digital so sounded noticeably colder. I like my tremolos choppy. Would like a PN-2 at some point, if I can find one at a reasonable price.

For standard tremolo I think the supatrem is one of the best sounding ones I've tried. And it's pretty affordable used if I remember correctly.

The goatkeeper is a great pedal as far as functions and possibilites go but it's kinda cold sounding and harsh on the wave. Imho.
The gravitas is better but I can't get the warm sounds I see in the knobs video. Amazing features on this one as well tho. So it's a lose&win situation with these two.

Any more info on the 80tape one? Discovered it in the bts thread but I can't find much info or demos business the one posted by vidret

Moog MF Trem has been my keeper. Easy to use, wide variety of sounds. No tap, but I don't really need it. No volume knob, but it's automatically compensated for a slight boost when it's on. It uses a LFO which gives it a warm but unique tone, just a touch of synth to its texture that I find really miss when I use other trems.

Tap tempo is imperative for me when it comes to trems, especially with choppier waves, can't stand having my guitar's attack be cut out when I don't mean it to be. :idk:

Right now I'm rocking a Moog. I miss the fuck outta the tremolo on the Flint though.

Man, no one has mentioned the Spaceman Voyager? Easily the best trem I've ever tried. Easily.

MF Trem was also very sweet though, and a fraction of the price of the Voyager.

Bumping up -- how's the swindler red mountain. Looks dope, based on vids.
