The envelope filter looks like great fun. And they're all quite reasonably priced, too!

Their like EHX, but $60.00!

That caught my eye too. Audio clip is just ok. Would really love to see someone demo this and run through all the settings. But for the price seems like a good deal.

I really want one of those smart FX loopers. I can imagine having all my combos programed in for super speed changes.

Me too.

I have several of the Moen pedals. Very well made and no troubles after 3 + years of use.

Oh they sound good too.

I like the looks of that, too.

Also wondering if the outputs on that power supply are isolated?

Heck yeah... I found one of these on ebay a long time ago, and have always been intrigued by them.

I even saved a picture of it so I wouldn't forget about that pedal... I want to get one eventually.

I can't believe they have a power source that has 8 outputs (two of them with adjustable voltage) for under $100! I may finally be able to ditch my powered pedalboard! Also, analog delay for $60 is pretty tempting, but how to choose between the biyang and mars? I know MM has mentioned that moen has one too, though I didn't see it on that seller's page...I wish I could see a shootout comparison of chinese analog delay...

MM, which ones have you got?

Pretty Dolly: delay, warm rolls the top off and 1 second delay.

Holy Choir: chorus, very nice and liquid sounding
Shaky Jimi$ Univibe it does the Univibe thing well
Buffalo: boost/od/pre/di thingie. 3 band EQ with cut and boost plus mid frequency control
They all work with bass.
Maybe not as great as #300 boutique pedals but better than a lot out there.

theres gotta be a catch

I have the biyang flanger.

It makes decent flanging noises (ok, I suppose) but that's not why I bought it.... I bought it because it self oscillates like crazy (literally starts to go insane when the knob is just at 10 o clock - from then on it goes out of control!
Enter loads of funky siren noises. At really fast rates you can even change the pitch like a synth oscillor with the mysterious "manual" knob (the knob doesn't do much most of the time but in extreme settings it does lot's of strange things.
When it's not on, and you listen closely, you can hear the flange sound leaking through... maybe that'll piss some people off but in the heat of a concert nobody's noticed it so far.
For 60 euros, it's pretty fun. It's solid metal. It resists beer being spilt on it (yes I tested it!). And every concert needs a siren noise at some point! It's a rock law!

Given the fact that all the "made in USA" companies (not counting smaller boutique companies, of course) are getting their boards made in China, there's no reason these couldn't be just as good as EHX, MXR, Boss, etc.

Plus, nobody's heard of the brands, so they get you extra indie points.
