It sounds good when it works. The initial attraction to me was the control pedal/CV jack. Though in practice it is not usable in any artistic way. I was hopingI would be able to adjust the length of the delay time to more closely match teh tempo of what I was playing. Instead it gos from top to bottom of its delay time in afraction of an inch. This is with, Moog, Roland and Ernie Ball pedals. It does sound good,but yuo have to be sure you get your levels right. It sounds ugly when overdriven, and noisy if fed a quiet signal. Mine broke after a couple weeks. It still passes signal, but no delay.
