I bought this pedal to help create guitar sounds coupled with a Boss line switcher that allows me to play like a guitar through one signal, and my bass through the other or both at the same time. Add some fuzz and it is awesome!

So nice and very fun. Inspiring

Great pedal with all kinds of sounds. However the only problem I have with it is that the bypass switch is extremely hard to activate and you can hear an audible click through your amp when activating. Also whenever you click on it if you have a delay or reverb on down your pedal chain the click will pick up the delay and reverb and sound terrible. I thought maybe it was just my pedal but after reading reviews online it appears it's a common issue with this pedal or I would just exchange it for another. I have found an aftermarket mod that is supposed to correct the issue. Hopefully it'll help! But keep in mind this is just a minor issue that can be worked around (such as keeping it in your "dry" signal when running stereo. I still love this pedal and the sounds I can get out of it.

I intended on using this unit to -1 octave on the 3 lowest strings on my acoustic guitar. I have successfully isolated the low E, A and D strings on a separate pic up and pre-amp. When it works it sounds better than any other octave pedal I've tried. BUT, this thing operates for 5-8 songs then the effect fades and goes silent, RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF A PERFORMANCE, YIKES!!! Electro Harmonix Fixed it a couple times, but after a while the problem comes back. They said something about the power supplies are not designed for continuous use of these high power effects, just momentary solos. Turns out, no octave pedals I've tried can stand up to 3-4 hours continuous use. Come on Electro H. Solve this problem.

For such an expensive pedal EHX should have better quality control. With the "Q" setting on 3, cycling through the "Dry FX" setting causes the whole pedal to momentarily shut down and a huge "pop" to go through my system. It then has to be unplugged and replugged for anything to work. EHX says they will look at it for $25 and then $12 S&H. Seriously disappointed with how unreliable EHX products are.
