That's great that it has frequency choices and can be locked to keep it that way, all tuners need a 432 setting at least to be useful, and other choices for those rare occasions is a big bonus, like tuning to a homemade flute that may be a odd frequency when it was built... looks like they trully made a winner with this pedal...
This looks like an awesome pedal. Though I don't use a volume pedal, I can definitely see why it would be good to have a big bright display on it indicating the current level. When your foot is on it, you can feel the angle. When you're not using it though, it's not so obvious where you left it. So the display is a big plus. The tuner display is very clear too. Regarding the FX loop -- does that mean that you can have the tuner be at the beginning of the chain (where it belongs!), and then have one or more other effects pedals in the loop, with the volume pedal after those pedals? If so, that's brilliant; it really makes this 2-in-1 pedal function like two independent pedals.
It's such a great idea. I've never been quite able to justify the : - A) money B) pedal-board space C) Added impedence to the signal chain ...of both a chromatic tuner pedal aswell as a volume pedal. Neither are strictly necessary for a predominantly home player as myself. But putting them together like this is such a clever yet simple way too address all three of those issues! It's like when two B actors or music stars date to form a Power Couple strong enough that together, they can be worth front page / exclusive party treatment, like.... (I'm thinking, I don't know famous ppl! ..Um..ok! I had to research this, but..Alyson Hannigan and Alexis Denisof. Alyson is the girl from American Pie ,of "That one time in band camp..." fame. Alexis is from Buffy, and has been in movies but you'd never remember him - he is not leading man material. Ok, so this example is a bit sub-par. I was going for B actors and prolly really got C..☹️ As I said, I don't know famous people!). How about Nickelback boofhead (Chad Kroeger) & Avril Lavigne! Anyway! I want to ask... Do you lose tone when the volume pedal is set less than 10, in the same manner that you do from your guitars'volume knob? And also..if you've become reasonably adept at volume swells from the guitars' volume knob, is there really any need for a volume pedal? I expect you have to use one to discover the answer to this. Whether it serves some fundamental needs, or whether it's a novelty you could've gotten by without, easily enough..? Thanks for the cool video.
I am thinking about ordering this, especially the red one as I have quite a bit of red in my studio and apparel. Nonetheless, I have a couple of issues that I would have to work through. One, is the fact that I can't see the volume setting when actually using the pedal. That seems a bit bonkers and self defeating really. Also, I really hate the green and all around color combos. Having a touch screen and especially at this price, I would have expected to have color settings. Loads of pedals have that, not really a big deal this day and age. Pricey for a volume pedal and a tuner that is almost functionless compared to the many great tuner pedals out there. Still, I like the concept. So, I might give it a try. Readout on the top and color settings and, bang!
Ouch $199.99 @ Guitar Center. Nice pedal no doubt, but that much for a tuner and foot activated volume potentiometer seems a bit steep to me.... I'm an old frugal basement noise maker, so this is most likely not targeted for my uses and demographic in general. I'd take on one for $40 though, lol.....
It’s their launch day. They sent the pedal to a bunch of RUclipsrs and asked us to release it today. I had no problem with it since they have helped my channel out tremendously and are a great company.
"Don't mind the reflection from the light bar" ... Yet, I do mind if it's going to be an issue. Many, if not most of 'us' are not in control of lightning. We're playing venues inside and out where light, darkness, glare are legitimate concerns to visibility. Precisely why I went "Snark" because it's in my horizontal visual plane, hence less effected by glare. I'm not "knocking" your review, nor the device mind you. However "if" ... oh let me shift this volume pedal so I can see is a realistic concern, it could be the proverbial camel back breaking straw ...
Love the bright display

I don’t see a money savings here. A good volume pedal is about $100
And a good tuner pedal is about $100
This thing is $200
But it doesn’t go to eleven
... not talking about 13 . . .
Great Flick!

Yep just about the price of a good volume pedal and a good tuner pedal.
Not really a savings there. Just the space saving on the board.
this is like the fifth video today on ths WTF !!
