3. USEFULNESS 5 out of 5
1. It's a solid feeling thing its not designed to be foot operated but I do operate it with my foot carefully but pretty confident that the slider won't break. Its a hard little box so not much else to say on that.
2. The design printed on it is very cool and is actually useful. I preferred this design over the plain one, not realising about the gauge lines being missing, but doesn't matter because the pattern helps keep a measure of its settings.
3. I personally use it to plug into a plethora x5. It works perfectly with and has unlocked lots of new sounds and ease of use for the plethora. It is especially useful for adjusting the volume of a loop and also having an always on reverb or master volume .... I could go on its just very useful for that particular unit.
