tremolo pedal

Tremolo meets reverb in a modulator that excels at old school amp trem’ and much weirder fare.

A cleverly designed and superb-sounding tremolo pedal with several outstanding varieties of modulation, and excellent reverb. Compact design. Many unexpected tones.

A separate footswitch for the reverb might be nice, but would likely require a bigger pedal.

The clever Portlanders at Catalinbread have always been great at the design game. And the new Tremolo8 shows how much creativity they continue to squeeze into a compact pedal enclosure. At just 4.25" x 2.25" x 1.12", the Tremolo8 is no larger than the average small-format, single-footswitch effects pedal. The price isn’t much more than your average compact stompbox, either. Yet, impressively, the Tremolo8 packs the kind of deep-dive functionality you’d expect from a chunky, more expensive, double-wide unit.
