Geuss ill have to give the LFLJ a shot then

If at all possible, check one out in person before buying. Some people equate the sound to a shitty tape recording, just ultra lofi and not for everyone. The vibrato effect is killer plus stacking it with other effects is titz! It also reacts like a SHO when playing over a loop, that really high impedance sparkle drenched on the signal, shit sounds good.

alright, ill check it out. the instant just gave me a slight warble when fully cranked and the other side of the knob was just a compressor

Thanks guys... I've found a used one for 320$ in Montreal, but it's still too expensive for me.
There's a looper in my Superdelay, but the Lo-Fi Loop Junky look like a lot of fun.

Looping it live can be a pain it the butt if you want it dead on in a band situation. But besides that theirs nothing else that can get "that" sound. Is it worth the price? Yes if you want "that" sound. Buying a Vibrato, Compressor and a loop all on its own would cost you more and then what Zvex wants. On top of that the filters needed to get it to sound Lo-Fi and you still wont be able to get the crackle that it has.

Yeah...I can't even say it's that hard to use in a live situation. The price may drive people away, but you really can't get that sound from any other pedal. Haters may hate, but this is one Vexy that lives up to the hype.
