good budget pedal for vibrato lovers
I was quite impressed with the vibrato mode on the ehx mod 11, with envelope and waveform possibilities. A heavy fun vibrato that instantly pulls you into a waterfall and makes you turn all around.
So I bought this one as a stand alone pedal.
The MOD 11 vibrato , although digital, is still a litlle bit more fun and captures dirt better. I must admit.
But Eddy is fun too. Here's why :
You get this typical analog sound, wich of course is less extreme. The waveform setting and envelopes make the difference for vibrato lovers. And the biggest reason to keep it for me is the expression input (not on MOD11). That's really nice. An analog vibrato with waveform, envelope and expression input for 99 euro ! I don't know any other. The chorus is nice, but is less important for me and I don't need to manipulate it. But it is a nice chorus als surplus. If you are interested in heavy vibrato and manipulating this sound, this is a good pedal. People who just want a vibrato as sometimes to use effect, this is maybe less interesting. If you just want a chorus, you take the Small Clone. I must say that the sawtooth waveforms start tot take over the lfo in the last quarters. For me this is less interesting, but I stay within the first quarters and it gets weird enough, but in a softer way.

Pros - nice sound, versatile, nice color and painting, adapter included, price
Cons - Very noisy, tried it with different adapters/power sources, in front of amp, in the fx loop. Paired with strong distortion it´s almost unbearable.

Title: Much deeper than a normal chorus pedal
I bought this mainly for chorus and vibrato, but there’s much more control here than on a basic modulation pedal. Slow chorus settings sound really lush and subtle, while higher Depth and unusual Shape settings can get properly warped and seasick.
The envelope control is particularly interesting because the modulation can react to how hard you play. I’ve found chorus works really nicely after distortion, while the vibrato is more of a special-effect sound for me.
It also sounds great with delay and reverb after it. Very useful for shoegaze, ambient sounds and cleaner experimental guitar parts.

Very versatile and good sounding chorus/vibrato.

Lovely sound and controls, VERY noisy
It’s true what is written about this pedal. The noise floor is unacceptable.
Controls are fantastic for those warpy/trippy pitch effects, and the chorus sound is great as you’d expect from EHX.
The noise ruins it for me. I sold it on a few months down the line and got something else.
