Tremolo pedal love

Among fuzz and delay, the tremolo effects is one of my favorite.
What is your favorite tremolo pedal and why?
At the moment I like my Mid-Fi Electric Yggdrasil and the tremolo side of the Fairfield Circuitry Randy's Revenge. But I'd like to explore the trem effect a bit more.

I LOVE TREMOLO?
I do like the Randy's Revenge a lot. Basic Audio Throbby is a nice sounding unfancy trem.
What aspects of tremolo would you like to explore?

Nothing special... I just want to see what other ILFer use and love.

Enjoying my Boss PN-2, right now. I had a Z. Vex Sonar that was super cool.

Sonar is rad, I forgot all about that pedal. Tap tempo with the 4x switch and the machine circuit was awesome for weird noisy almost ring mod stuff. And besides that, it's just a useful feature packed trem.
Randy was awesome for subtle trem stuff. I loved running it last at lower depth with the clean blended in and the rate higher for that film projector kinda whirr over everything.
Maybe I need a tremolo again

Vox Repeat Percussion-style trem is a great sound.
Creepy Fingers Starstream, EQD Hummingbird, Magnetic Effects Electrochop, lots of other builders doing their take on the circuit

Hummingbird was my first trem way back when I first got into effects on bass! Got me hooked.

I'd love something like Randy's Revenge with more wave shape.

Used to love the RR trem.
Now I use a malekko. It's tiny, simple and sounds nice enough.

Hell yeah! I'd like to supplement the malekko with a repeat percussion style trem.

Me too.
I liked that Lo/Rez Mona Lisa Overdrive that Chankgeez has.
Randy is fun.
Love the one on the ampeg gemini amp.
Vox repeat percussion is fun, but Koma BD-101 kinda does it and more (however, awkward gain stage). Pigtronix ring master has been fun. I like the trem mode on noah'sark ring mod too.
Lightning Wave Ghost! It can be used as a slow gear swell too! I love that thing (thanks Lee!).

Hot take: no tap tempo, no bueno.
CBA Gravitas is the best one I've tried.

I don't use it (or anything else) in a tap tempo requiring way.
