Recently purchased this to replace my Boss TR-2 tremolo (which I love) I got this because of the ability to tap tempo to have the tremolo pulse match the beats of the song. So far so good. The controls give you many more options than the Boss TR-2. One thing that I don't like is the flashing LED light that matches the tempo.
It continues to blink even when the effect is disengaged and it's pretty bright so it's a little distracting. I'll probably get used to it after awhile but initially it's a distraction.

Great trem pedal with the ability to wave mix. Beats the the pedals with the single triad spike. Three wave forms here. Much richer!

Just to reiterate what others have said. The mix knob is like an on/off switch, completely useless. The wave knob seems to go from one extreme to the next. Also, the pedal has a high pitch noise that is annoying. No, it is not my power supply because I use the same 9v block supply and a TrippLite line regulator with everything else, and everything else doesn't hum.
There are so many better alternatives out there. Seek and ye shall find!

This thing is crazy. Every setting is a game changer and it will always be heard. It's great for clean tone and distortion. Some people say that it's to intense but that's just not true. You can use the tap tempo, the speed knob, the ratio knob, and the shape knob to change the intensity to what ever you see fit. Coming from a metal player, I can say that this is the best tremolo pedal I've ever played for the genre.

I had high hopes for this tremolo. It delivered on some of my expectations. But it was a let-down in other ways. It is wonderfully transparent. On the downside, the sine wave is a bit sterile. The square wave is okay. There are better options out there.

very loud pop when you turn on the pedal. the mix knob is almost useless until about noon. it's either no trem or too much. not very much room for subtle trem sounds. the lights are so bright they burn my eyes so i put gaff tape over them. the tap function is amazing. the wave knob is meh. kinda of a shame. expected more.

This is just my opinion, so take it or leave it, but to me this is just a combination of several mediocre sounding tremolos. It's fine, but I took it off my board and replaced it with a TR2. If you're looking for several different "decent" sounding tremolo shapes, you'll have fun with this, but if you have a specific trem sound in mind that you want a pedal to do very well, there are better, cheaper options. Tried for a long time to dial in a great sounding, useful tremolo, and kind of just found fifty different moderately fun sounds, that I wouldn't care to keep on my board for long. Some people will love this though, I just prefer my TR2. The Tidewater by JHS is fantastic though

Ive owned quite a few different trem pedals over the years, this is by far the best tremolo pedal I have ever played or ever heard. Ever. I could go into details about how versatile it is, or how many wave forms you can choose from, or that it has a mix knob and tap tempo. But all you really need to know is..this is it. This is the one. If you can't get a sound you like out of this pedal then tremolo is not your thing. This pedal is perfection.

Not kidding with the right settings it can literally growl. I really liked the tremolo, tons of options and wonderful warm sound. Love the that tap tempo, But it's just not exactly what I was looking for in my rig so I'm exchanging it. Just an FYI make sure you know what you want. Exchanging items through sweetwater is easy but can take up to a month to process. Waiting for package return, waiting for money return, waiting for new item to be bought and shipped, etc. Other than that,it's a great pedal from JHS and good customer service from sweetwater (just make sure you test your stuff at a store before you buy)

The Tap Tempo is a must. Versatile, killer sound quality. Josh at JHS has it dialed.

I went from my old original Voodoo Lab which I dearly love but this Kodiak with tap tempo is so smooth and versatile... Love it!

Great tremolo pedal. Wasn"t sure if I would use the tap tempo, but found it was essential when playing with the whole band. I play in a church/worship group that does a lot of last minute improvising- this keeps everything on tempo. It also has an awesome Kodiak bear on it. Highly recommend.
