Frequently Asked Questions

They're inspired by Koch’s renowned amplifier and pedal designs, but reimagined for this compact format – expect familiar sonic characteristics.
The synchronization is designed for accuracy, allowing for complex rhythmic interplay between the tremolo and delay, though very fast tempos might require slight adjustments.
While the circuit is well-shielded, analog pedals are inherently more prone to noise; careful gain staging and a quality power supply are essential for a clean signal.
