The only compressor pedal that had all the features I was looking for - a few usable ratios, sidechain HPF, tone tilt [that's still transparent], good metering, and parallel blend. Easy to use if you're used to 1176-style compression. One could argue a threshold and output gain control would be easier to use on a pedal than input/output on a fixed threshold. But it doesn't hold the pedal back from doing everything I need in a first tone stage.

Musical, emotional, gorgeous — this is an extraordinary pedal. I don’t even really utilize heavy repeats, and am way more of a set and forget guy than a knob twirler, but this has already become an indispensable tool. Fascinatingly versatile, endlessly absorbing. Not easy to find, not inexpensive, worth the trouble and the cost. Some things just have the magic. This does. Do yourself this favor. You’ll be grateful.

Not only one of the best reverbs out there, but one of the best modulation and tape warbles I've ever played. Everything Ezhi & Aka puts out is amazing.

Sound Shoppe you guys are amazing! Thank you for the super fast shipping as I was so excited to try this pedal. The tone on this pedal is incredible! Sounds just like playing thru a quality tube amp. Love it!

I recently had to give up my full tone bass drive and had been searching around for a replacement, found out about this Italian handmade clone and decided to give it a shot. Honestly I like this more, smaller footprint on the board and I believe the boost/holy F is more effective than the OG. Sounds like an SVT swan song before the power tubes give out . I’m running into an ls2 and a fuzz war in the B loop to blend in fuzz while keeping the incredible tone from the BFD. Sound shoppe was the right choice to buy from and if they get it back in stock you should get this pedal.

Where to even begin. The most surprising thing is that the manual for this pedal is only 12 pages, but the pedal itself is insanely deep, sort of like how an elektron box is easy to learn but hard to master. There is 8 included presets and slots 9-32 are empty for you to make your own presets. Along with a good few sound engines, and other effects built in. If you can think of something to tweak, it is tweakable. You are even able to sequence when and how the effects go move which is very powerful when wanting to get evolving textures in your sound. My personal favorite sound engine that I mess with is the ring modulator as I have a bit of a bias towards those, however overall this is a very insanely deep pedal for everything from lofi, to glitch, to heavily experimental and distorted and evolving tones. There is not enough words within this review that can be able to cover everything, I even made a video that was almost a half hour and it barley scratched the surface. Like I said, this is a simple pedal on the surface as it is only a 12 page manual, but the longer you play with it the more you find and the more tricks and sounds can be crafted from this. I personally highly recommend this pedal for someone looking for a heavy glitch, modulated, lofi, or experimental type music playing. But me personally I am very industrial/experimental/dark synth based so the glitchy evolving textures help give that darker crunch to my tone. Just be prepared to take some time with it to enjoy learning the pedal, and let the pedal give you some fun in return.

The mix knob and three voices push this pedal to the top of the pile. Who knew there's so much to discover in low to mid gain tone topography.
Special.

Lovely old school crazy looper

Love the sputtery fuzz this thing can do, I use it on bass...it loses a little low end but I use it with a blend pedal and it sounds fantastic.

I've used a Timeline as long as I can remember. TSA did their thing and finally broke it after 10 years of travel. I was planning on replacing it with another Timeline, but decided it could be a cool opportunity to try something else. I bought the Solis Ventus based on the recommendation of a friend and am pretty happy so far. It's a decently complicated pedal so the editor helps a bunch. There's some magic in the Timeline that I'm not sure if this will replace but as far as capabilities go this one has it beat. The fidelity of the effects is impressive along with the vast amount of delay/reverb engines. I updated the pedal as soon as I received it and so far I have encountered any of the quality issues that can come with this pedal. If you're wanting to try something new or interested in consolidating you delay/reverb I'd recommend giving this pedal a try!

I bought this pedal as a buffer but there's definitely some mojo going on under the hood. Sounds amazing on guitar and bass. It's almost a bummer hearing it because it sounds so much better than before. I've used tons of different buffers over the years and this is by far the best sounding one. Pedal is built extremely well and is probably the coolest pedal I own aesthetically. It's on the pricier side for what it is, but if you're on the fence, just do it. Wish I'd bought it sooner.

The Endless Dreamer lets you do the regular delay thing, but start feeding in that second delay and add a touch of bit crushing....chef's kiss! The pedal is great the ONLY thing you need to take into account is the size...it's a chonky boy, but if you have the space and the power it's a no brainer. As always, Sound Shoppe provides an amazing ordering experience.

This is so unruly that time playing it feels like trying to tame a wild animal. The loudest fuzz I've ever dealt with, and the most interactive stomp I've come across in a long while. Unforgettable experience and lots of fun.

Stunning, unpredictable, temperamental and yet addictive pedal. Just when you think you've cracked the secrets, it does something unexpected. Not for everyone but a much needed stomp for those who like this kind of experience.

This is the wildest pedal that I've ever owned but very controllable. Each of the three voices has it's own volume control. When I saw that they were in stock I jumped on it. The tape and noise voices react to your playing in a beautiful and musical way that I love. Your dynamics and touch really come into play.
