UAFX tape Echo
I purchased this pedal because a review demo I watched in YouTube. I readily admit pedals are not really my thing. But the difficulties I encounter were a lack of internal power (battery), the in/out/power plug are all a little to close together, and when I did hook up a battery with a small pig tail power plug, it consumed batteries at an alarming rate.
Read more What I did like was the size and build quality. When I got past the power source issue the pedal seemed to work well, but again I'm not really a pedal guy, and can't really say I knew what I was doing, or wanting to achieve. This is not the first time I've encountered this problem with a pedal.
