Poison Noises Tractor Beam review on pedal-of-the-day.com

pedal-of-the-day.com

The Poison Noises Tractor Beam Optical Tremolo V2 is a stellar addition for any pedalboard, offering a rich array of tremolo options that can evoke everything from subtle vintage vibes to intense modern chops. Its clean boost circuit effectively addresses the common volume dip issue found in many tremolos, while the new wave shaping controls enhance its versatility. However, while the pedal excels in sound design, some users may find its complexity daunting at first. Overall, it’s a powerful tool for modulation enthusiasts, easily earning its place in the lineup.
