Kmise ABY Pedal,Box Line Selector AB Switch,Electric Guitar Effects Pedal Mini Single Type DC 9V True Bypass

First, I am bound to state that I received both these pedals at no cost for review. Having gotten that out of the way ...KMise Tremolo PedalWhat is a tremolo? As relates to electric guitar, tremolo is a modulation in the volume of the sound. That's all. Back in the way early days, this was an effect that could be implemented very inexpensively using the often-unused half of a pre-amp tube in an amp. This made it a popular feature for amp manufacturers, which in turn led to its use by musicians, especially back when there were basically no other effects.I have several old tube amps with tremolo, and this pedal does a pretty good imitation of the genuine article. The tremolo effect varies from almost undetectable to a full underwater warble kind of sound. I also have some more modern tremolo effects, and I think blindfolded you would be hard-pressed to tell the difference. The pedal is true bypass, the full signal goes through with the power disconnected. When the effect is enabled, the volume does go up a bit, but with basically no additional noise.I've seen some complaints that this pedal doesn't really kick in until you have the intensity half way up. Actually, more like 1/3 the way up, and that is pretty much how an old tube tremolo worked. To turn an old built-in tube tremolo off, you simply turn it all the way down, there is no switch. As far as the rate goes, this pedal is also comparable to the real thing.For the price, this pedal is surprisingly well made, with an all-metal case, and solid-feeling switch. The pots are smooth and quiet, but the shafts are plastic, not metal, and the knobs come off rather easily. The jacks are tight. There is no provision for a battery, you will need a 9 volt power supply. I use a 1Spot. The lack of a battery does not bother me at all, I never use batteries in effects. Modern batteries are awful, they all leak, you are asking for trouble.Inside, there are two stacked circuit boards, one for the electronics, and the other for input/output/power/etc. All the components are modern miniature surface-mount, everything is very neat. The jacks, switch, and pots are supported solidly by the sturdy metal case, not the circuit boards.I'm not a cork-sniffer. You can spend $200 on a tremolo pedal. Would that be better? I hope so !!! This pedal does everything you could want from it for $20. It is a terrific value - well-made, quiet, and sounds fine. I would not take it out on the road and stomp it every night with hob-nailed boots, not with those plastic pot shafts. But for bedroom or studio use, it is perfectly good, and a great way to pick up an old-time effect.Summary: I like this pedal.================================================KMise Phase PedalA phaser is a fairly simple device. It adds a swirling effect to the sound. Most 'classic' phasers have just a single control for the speed or rate of the effect. The only other control on this pedal is a mechanical true-bypass switch. This effect cannot take a battery, you will need a 9v power supply, I recommend a 1Spot. Batteries today are expensive and very poorly made anyway.Construction is good, with a strong two-piece anodized aluminum casing. All the controls and jacks are supported by the case, not the circuit boards. The only weakness is the plastic shaft of the knob, which could break if abused. That makes this pedal more suited for the studio or bedroom than the road. Mine has an error in the printing on the case - it is a "Vintage Phas". Ha.When engaged, the pedal gives you the classic phase effect, with no noise or change in volume. There's just not a lot to a phaser. I have one other phase pedal, and the two are quite comparable, this one having a more pronounced effect and greater speed range. For the price, this pedal is a great value - good sound and good construction, small enough to fit anywhere.Summary: I like this pedal.

Its really nice to have tiny little pedals that take up practically no room and perform well.I have both the tremolo and the phase pedal: and both are useful.The phase pedal is the star of the show though, as it gives a lush dimensional phase effect with minimal change to the basic guitar tone. Simple: sounds great!Despite the cautionary warning to not open it: no user serviceable parts inside: I did open it up to take a look as I have built a few pedals myself: and I like to see how things are made.The build quality is very good: the casing is made of tightly fitted pieces of extruded aluminum. So it’s not only strong, but outstanding EMF rejection. The circuitry is impressively low noise. With the miniaturization possible with SMD manufacturing: What used to require a big box is now nicely done with the tiny components on one board and the switching on another. The pots have a good feel: a bit of resistance, and stay put. The switch is bog standard.As far as the tremolo sound: it’s very clean at lower settings and covers a wide range from imperceptible rate of 1hz and no depth, through subtle pulsing, to well known country and rock tones near the middle of the knob’s travel and finally to thick and murky with the knobs all the way clockwise. There’s enough flexibility to get quite a range of colors, and it works well in combination with a delay or chorus, because it won’t dull the high end. There’s a hint of gain boost and slightly more clarity than the bypassed tone at lower settings, so it won't seamlessly match volume from on to off at some settings, though the treble character can be softened to taste with the depth knob.Not as nuanced and versatile as high end products that cost 5x or more as much, and if you use need more extensive control, you might consider the three knob version. But for basic tremolo effects I generally use, this unit works very well.

Great bit of kit, needed it for a gig, was getting a lot of noise from my pedals, fitted this to my set up, even low it drastically cut out the buzz and hum, yes as you crank it higher you've got to pick a little harder but that's fine and isn't always either, it's a balancing act just spend time getting it right on the setting, it turned out I didn't even need it as we just used a DI box.It was going to get 4 stars because as you crank it higher you have to pick harder, but that's normal for a noise gate and for the price and value and quality of the pedal. It's metal casing and came with sticky pads too, it totally eliminated my hum and buzz when set to about 40-50% and didn't effect my actual sound at all. Whilst I didn't end up needing it for the concert I use it at home in my setup and for my Amp and it's on hand for when there's no DI to use! Life saver and so cheap!

I bought the Hot Plexi simply because it wasn't expensive and I was looking to experiment with a few budget pedals. I'm really glad I did! On it's own, with a boost, or blended with a t.c. electronic Dark Matter it's a great pedal! It works great alone, as an OD or distortion. It's not noisy, looks great, fits easily on my board etc, etc... I can't say anything bad about this thing! I just spent the last hour playing with it, and plan on getting back in a few minutes.If you think you'd like it, you probably will. I get tones from blues rock, classic rock to metal.Best $18 pedal I've ever seen!

Yeah, it's good, it's not great. It has that classic Ross compressor/ dyna comp thing going on. Attack control doesn't do a lot, but it qorks well enough. I suspect country guitar players will love it, or someone using it in front of drive. Kind of pumpy for bass, but that is inherent in this style of circuit I think. I don't know how long it'll hold up, but it is metal, and you can't beat the price.

Very surprised at this budget pedal ,works well.

Excelente para engordar el sonido de la guitarra y bajo, tonos presentes sin perder la dinámica, siento que el Sustein y el Ataque están invertidos, o tienen tiempos muy rápidos el sustein para mi fue acomodarlo como si fuera el ataque pero mas como un Ataque lo sentí como una perilla de Gain y el Ataque ahora si la acción de compresión con tiempos rapidos de liberación por eso no se ve tan afectada la dinámica si quieren saber el potencial de este pedal dejen el Volumen al 100 y experimenten con las perillas de Ataque y Sustein Buen día

Very decent little box! Works perfectly

No vas a irte a un tour con él. Pero en verdad es muy bueno, sirve muy bien, necesitas buenos cables para que suene mejor. El volumen es increíble.Buen tono, se acopla bien a la pastilla que pongas.

I've been playing guitar for 40 years. Boss and Yamaha were my go-to pedals back when I was actively playing gigs, so I wasn't really expecting a lot from this inexpensive pedal. Needless to say, I was pleasantly surprised at how good this sounds... it gave me just enough chorus to add that extra layer of sound without getting annoying or too wonky sounding, and their "true bypass" really is... there is zero noise going through the pedal whether it is in use or bypassed. Impressive.I'm just getting back into recording music, and although I am a rhythm player (mostly country) on acoustic and archtop guitars, I'm going to start adding other pedals from the KMISE line to my arsenal because not only are they a great value for the money, I can achieve other sounds and tones if I need them for certain tracks without breaking the bank.For how inexpensive these are compared to the bigger name brands, can you afford not to have a few of these pedals in your musical toolbox?
