Perfect pedal for creating abient guitar effects!

I bought this pedal for making ambient guitar swelling and swirling, this pedal does the job perfectly! It's simple to operate, just rock the foot pedal back and forth and hear the volume swell and decrease. Works best combined with reverb and/or delay. Also, it doesn't need a power supply, saving power on your pedalboard.

Preferred Settings + Usage:

A useful pedal to have! I'd put it after drive (though I use little to no drive with this pedal), and before time based effects like reverb and delay.
