I always thought compression pedals were only for those uber tone freaks because the difference was so minimal, but I like all the extra features this one has. But is it worth it at $169?

Don't they need to rename it "Sorcerer's Tone" for the USA?

"Sly and the Family's Tone." Or would that be a phaser?

Looks like a failed EHX pedal.

I saw this one aswell. It sounds pretty good. I'm not too big on compressors but this one sounds quite different from the norm. If its your thing you might aswell try it out, resale shouldn't be too bad.

Pretty great sounding - the grit feature is a really nice add-on.

I thought the grit idea was great but to me it sounds fizzy and a bit wank, I'd be all over this if the grit was nicer sounding I think.

Although on the newer Pro Guitar Shop demo it sounds much nicer.

I like that second demo. The grit knob sounded a lot better.
