Ease of Use
:
8
I have the normal (non-mondo) Nocto and I find it easy to use, but I could see how some people might feel differently.
You have 2 knobs, 2 3-position switches, 1 normal switch, and 2 stomps.
Sound Quality
:
10
Using this with a Steinberger(seymour duncan pickups) into a 100W Fender Twin.
It sounds friggin great! There's a pronounced high-end buzzsaw-ness to it, but that tames wonderfully with any pedal after it.
I tweaked the internal gates as the gate on the 'loco' mode wasn't tight enough (it would just howl when turned on).
The octave/jumping/indecision sounds great when combined with the pulse mode. A pseudo tremolo/synth type thing.
Reliability
:
10
I own 3 4ms pedals (swash, atoner and nocto) and I've never had any problems I didn't cause on my own.

Dann is a great guy, very responsive (sometimes it takes him a week or so to get back, but he does). His turnaround for repairs/tweaks/mods are good as well.
I want 4ms to come out with another pedal, so I can buy it!
