Hotone Skyline Harmony Digital Polyphonic Pitch Shift Shifting Organ 12-String Detune Guitar Bass Effects Pedal

I was looking for a bitcrusher type effect and stumbled across this randomly, and was swayed by the good reviews. It turns out, they are all correct, this is an extremely nice pedal for the price, if this was in a boutique enclosure it would be five times more expensive. First off, it is very tiny, only about the size of about two matchboxes on top of each other. I knew it was small from the photos, but in real life it's still a shock at first. I love how small it is though, it won't take up any space on my desktop and yet still looks really unique. The top clear knob also lights up white when you turn it on, so that is a really cool visual to go along with the small size. It sounds great! I ran a few small synths I have through it as a quick test before I hooked it up to larger equipment. They all sounded awesome through it, there is such a huge range of sounds. This will really take any instrument I run through it and give it a filter to tweak the sound into something out of the ordinary. You can also use it in a live manner, turning the knob to crush the sound digitally either opening up a track/song or closing one out by having it descend into digital crumbles. As far as the crushing sound, this is on par, if not better that both the software I have that does crushing, and the hardware I have (Digitakt, Typhon) that have built in crushing filters. It has a great sound that isn't an overly harsh digital cheesefest (although you could take it there with eq and effects), but more of a literal pulling apart of the sounds as you turn the knob. Hard to describe in words, but it sounds really good, and not just like a gimmick. This is great for adding character to samples, pads, and (sampled) percussion, as well as just fun to run synth sounds through. The only thing I'd add to this would be to have a stereo option to have this in my stereo chain. It works amazingly as-is, so no points off for that, but I would definitely pay more just for that option, if the manufacturer ever reads this. Overall, is it worth the money? Yes, this is one of the best sounding small purchases I've made in a long time, it didn't just deliver, it actually exceeded my expectations. You will need to buy a power cable for it, I ordered a D'Addario PW-CT-9V to go with it (slim size ac adapter) and it's working great.

The Sonicake KRUSH is a solid compact-sized bitcrusher mono lo-fi rate reducer pedal with a true bypass. First observations, metal case, all the jacks were tight, same for the control knobs, foot switch (solid with a distinct click, but not loud click). Power is a standard pedal 9V negative tip connector. Mine worked perfectly with either a standalone power supply or on a daisy chain. I found the control layout to be straight forward with the controls being very responsive. Even the Velcro is included. Its compact size is a perfect fit on my pedal board. Test time, after I was done, I loaned it to a couple friends. It worked with a standard electric guitar, an electric bass, an acoustic electric, a synthesizer, a drum machine and a condenser mike. Put an ABY pedal at the end of your pedal chain to feed your computer. Tri-mode with a radio simulator, neutral and vintage phonograph. Each mode can be highly unique. Wanna to be Jimi? It can help. Metal ? Grunge? Space Rock ? Psychedelic Rock, this pedal is a must. Wanna make the blues more authentic? You can be the South Side of Chicago, a smokey bar with bad acoustics. I found it to be very flexible. You can use it simply as a radio/phonograph filter pedal with both sample rate and bit reduction knobs turned to zero. A pedal of infinite possibilities, limited only your imagination. Overall, a very useful, fun and affordable pedal, and not for just special effects. I Love It !!!!!!

It's adorable. I took a star off because like 25% of the times I turn it on it makes a gross bugged-out droning noise, and I have to restart it. I waited a long time to get one of these, despite being obsessed with bit crushers and enjoying software units. It is my favorite pedal now lol It does what I want. A blend knob is vital to me in a bit crusher, and it gives a good variety of SICK, usable, organic-or-not sounds when used in conjunction with the big "Krush" knob. Most of the time I use it as a very subtle gritty overdrive-style effect thru an amp sim and I'm totally in love with the sound in that application. Anything over like 20% crush sounds like a video game, which is fun but kitschy, difficult to integrate, and definitely not the vision I have for a crusher. The little switch in the middle feels like a bandpass or something and it is creative and useful, but neutral is clearly the best to me and the others feel a little goofy most of the time. The ubiquitous bit depth control is hard to see practically as anything but an aesthetically offensive noise generator, and I leave it off. I like all my pedals, but this one is wicked charismatic to me. The two knobs that I use are worth the price to me. Taming it down into an effects chain, using it as an effect instead of an instrument, so that it speaks without shouting, is very gratifying and can produce some genuinely exciting and novel textures. I don't think you can get a bit crusher effect this usable from a pedal this cheap anywhere else.

Love this pedal. Tiny, cheap, and works great. It’s actually the second one I’ve bought.

This little thing is amazing. There are many strange effects possible--some downright spooky--but the thing that most amazes me...and that I use the most... is the way it emulates a 12 string. I don't need that sound often enough to lug around an entire 12 string guitar--so being able to stomp on this is perfect. I bought it thinking it was a long shot--but it sounds quite good.

Late delivery, it wouldn’t work. I thought my power supply had problem which runs perfectly with other pedals . Then finally i Order separate adapter for it and guess what wouldn’t work still , not it’s out of return window also coz I actually thought Amazon would have delivered the right product , this is not acceptable whatsoever.

Es casi como poner un overdrive antes de un fuzz. Para mí gusto la opción de menos gain (la del círculo en el toggle switch) es la que mejor se escucha. Puedes bajar el volumen de la guitarra y se aprecian matices agradables. Muy buenos sonidos, bien construido y súper mini. Estoy muy contento con mi compra.

Huge fan of this pedal! I've used pretty much most of the common entry level dists. (Ds-1, pro Co rat, metal zone, Donner dists, tc dark matter and others I can't remember) I found this to be the best sounding, tight Distortion! Super easy to mess with and Hella loud!

..and hear the lamentation of your soundsource. Geiles Pedal. Für die Gitarre nur bedingt einsetzbar, macht mehr Sinn bei Synthesizer, Drumcomputer etc.. Der Name ist Programm. KRUSH

PRO: Smallest bittus chrunchiess of a pedal that looks like a robot on a bender or one small, amazing robo tiki heads that munches the sound real good. When paired with another effect that does sweeping (ADSR, cyclicEnv, LFO, cutoff pass on a filter...) and smooth tweaking on the bit reductuion and sample rate dials with the mix almost 80-90 total velocity and you get 5-bit S & H like sequencing. Run it on a synth or plug in that does classic trance gating sequencing and chords and you have lo fi gritty arpeggios. CON: It's only mono! ,T _ T Please make one with TRS input/output.
