I thought I had a dud at first. Very muted and not much tremolo effect . Thankfully It was only a weak battery. Plugged in a OneSpot 9V and WOW what a difference. The rate and depth knobs do something now. Unity gain is easy to dial in. The Depth and Rate knobs are easy to fine tune. You can modify the sound of the wave with the switch and Shape knob. Very happy with the Pulsar. Gonna use it on Elevation Worship's "Rattle!" first.

I wanted to add tremolo effects to a couple of the songs I perform. I tried the TC Electric Chokra and wasn't happy with the the sound plus the one I received effected my signal chain when it was in the off position. I ordered a TC Pipeline in February and TC kept pushed back delivery to Sweetwater from April to May. I decided to give the "NEW" Electro-Harmonix Nano Pulsar stereo tremolo pedal a try. It gives me the vintage tremolo tone I wanted for some of the classic 60's and 70's rock songs, added nice coloring to country tunes, and it fattens my overall sound when it's set to give a hint of tremolo. I'm running it through a pedal board with clean boost and some delay and reverb set on my Boss Katana 50 amp.

The older "medium sized" version of this pedal was a favorite on my board and a pedal I regretted selling. As soon as I saw a nano version of this came out I knew I had to have it. It's fairy easy to dial in. I use either a classic amp like sound or a HARD chop. It does either setting perfectly. The volume know is also a welcome upgrade over the old version. EHX does it again!

This was a birthday gift for my husband, and he says it does exactly what he wanted it to do. He's very pleased with it in all respects. Thanks, Brad and Sweetwater!

I was almost immediately able to dial in a setting for Nancy Sinatra's 'Bang Bang' despite this being my first tremolo pedal. Day one giddiness: achieved. Lifetime of continued tweaking: in progress. The Rate knob is indeed quite touch sensitive, as others have mentioned, but I don't see an issue with getting even more range out of the pedal than I thought possible. My only complaint is that I'm used to Boss-quality hardware and both my Pulsar and Ram's Head fuzz are not as solidly built as I was expecting. Maybe that's just to cut down on costs, but I'm also not expecting the thing to break underneath my foot. Just a surprise as I try out different brands.
