Three knobs easy to use. The mix that mixes the wet and dry signal is very edgy after 1 pm position

I like it a lot. I use it with a few other effects and it realy gives that sort of sigur ros sound if done right. It does have a tendency to sound to chopy in the breaks unless you turn the speed know down real low. also it is always a few second behind you. Not the best thing for live playing

Very easy use since there are only 3 knobs: mix, speed (sample time),
and repeats. Just plug in your guitar and your playing some cool reverse sounds!

This pedal sounds awesome! I can finally do some cool Adrian Belew stuff during a live performance! This pedal isn't just a envelope filter with a delay to make it sound like a reverse effect, it really does reverse the source material.

The unit is built very solid, but I've only owned it for 2 days so
its hard to say.

I sent the company some specific questions about the DR-1 before I
purchased it and they never replied back after a week of waiting. So I ended up just buying one and taking a chance on loosing money on shipping costs if it turned out to be a envelope/delay pedal.

I play pop-rock and the pedal is very appropriate for the genre.
It adds a sense of mystery and eerieness to the music, so I love
every ounce of this pedal! :) The only thing I can gripe about is the sample time - I just wish it was a wee bit longer. I'm still looking
for a nice midi controlled device with this kind of effect so you can
change the wet/dry ratio in real-time, but this pedal is worth every
cent until I see something else worthy of upgrading to.
