Destroys the signal in the best possible way
Using it primarily with synthesizers. I’m finding it’s working well with FM synths like my Yamaha DX7. All of the wave tables keep me experimenting and finding inspiration. Very very cool pedal. Would have gotten the pro if it was available at the time. This one is still great.

An absolute power house
The pedal is amazing, it’s an absolute powerhouse which can emulate just about every fuzz pedal out there and it has a few bells and whistles of its own. Be warned however, this pedal takes a little know how to get the sounds you want, but the possibilities are endless. My only complaint is that the green LEDs don’t work on mine, I attempted to contact WMD, they responded but never gave me a solution to the problem.

So versatile, I can barely begin to explain.
I've had this pedal for 14 hours and have lost 8 of them just trying to wrap my brain around it. I've run a microphone, guitar and baritone guitar (picked, tapped, and *swoon* ebowed), and an electric viola through it and all of them react differently to it.there are 250 wave tables and four pretty much dual purpose knobs which dramatically alter the sounds of each wave table you select. some wave tables turn the higher kHz range into chaotic static. some wave tables don't make any sound at all with a particular instrument, then you plug another one through it and it's insanity.It's diminutive in size and weighs next to nothing, but is built like a tank and puts out noise that could wake the dead.I would agree that this pedal is a tone junkie's worst nightmare, but if you are the type who enjoys experiments in sound i can't recommend it enough.I like it so much I'm actually considering buying a few backups of this pedal in case the company discontinues the line.

Well, you probably know enough already
If you are reading reviews, you most likely know enough about this product and what it can do. Buy this beast already. You'll love it.Personally, I love it. It is a fun and very very creative guitar effect. There is so much control with each wave, that it is not feasible to hear all of the sounds this thing can actually do.I am anxious to get an expression pedal for this guy.Pros: Unbelievable sounds. Cool packaging. Waves counted in Hexidecimal. 15 additional ways each wave can be changed when pressing the wave table knob. Lighter than you'd expect. Fun LED colors. Takes everything: guitar, bass, drum machine, saxophone, and more!Cons: Top inputs are not ideal for me. It can be a challenge remembering a particular setting, however it remembers where you were when you turn it back on.

full-featured bit destroyer
I really like this machine. You get variable bit-depth and sample-rate reduction, gain, EQ, and wavetable filtering. Many of these factors interact so there are thousands of combinations. Once you find a setting you like, it's useful to take notes or photos if you ever want to reuse the patch. It's possible to get square-wave distortion, notch/comb filtering, phaser-like effects, etc. Each effect can range from subtle to unrecognizable. It's the most efficient sound killer I've ever used. This works well on any source. I've processed keys, toys, guitars and drum machines with it. Every time I play with it I find a completely new sound to enjoy. The build quality is tops. If you want a hardware bit destroyer, this is it!

thumbs up!
this one takes "thinking out of the box", and shreds the box for you in the process:) AMAZING, high quality pedal with so many possibilities.

One Dimensional Boondoggle
I have to dissent here.I like noisey, weird sounds. I like hooking 8 pedals together and twiddling knobs until something unexpected happens and then go to town with two expression pedals.This thing basically only has about 2 sounds that aren’t that great and you have to work to get them.Sure, you can say I just don’t know how to use it. But it’s not hard - it’s just like any other pedal.It’s basically a fuzz / distortion with a narrow, cheap midrangey band-passed sound + badly tapered bit crushing.The wavetable selection is a joke. They each sound a little different, but they’re only minor variations on the same sound. If you really listen, you can probably hear that you’d get about the same range of sonic variation from fiddling with a 3-5 band eq, or an eq with sweepable mid frequency.Except that would be easier to use; instead you have to shuttle through a random assortment of waveforms to get this somewhat mundane variation in sound.A good way to understand what this pedal is capable of is to imagine a different pedal:- 1 cheap band-passed ear piercing distortion sound which serves as the basis for all sounds the pedal makes- 2 bit crushing controls that almost immediately dissolve the pitch into a monotone digital white noise- a little bit of tone / eq control, but not muchit’s not super great, is it? sounds like a miss to me.take that pedal and do the following:- assign eq settings randomly to 256 integers instead of having eq knobs so you have to go on an easter egg hunt every time you want to make an adjustment- also randomly assign up to 10x difference in volume level to these integers; you’re playing russian roulette with blowing out your eardrums or clipping anything downstream in your signal path.It’s not fun, it’s a train wreck. And you just spent $300 on it. Good times.If you want something more musical that actually has tonal variation and is still surprising, take a look at the Earthquaker Devices Data Corrupter. That pedal is killer.

Weapon of Mass Distortion
I'm the only kid on my block with this one. It has endless possibilities, too bad it doesn't have presets or user presets. However that is also part of it's beauty. I love it. It isn't for everyone. If you've sought it out, it could be for you. Pricey and original.
