The Analog Alien Rumble Seat can easily replace 3 pedals, saving you valuable space on your pedal board. You can have each effect on one at a time or you can have just two or all three. It all depends on you, the guitarist. Here is a quick review of the Rumble Seat's features. The Rumble Drive simulates a vintage Marshall 69 Plexi amp. It has 3 controls: The Output knob controls the direct output level when the Rumble Drive is engaged. The more you turn it up, the more output you send to your amp. The Tone control is very versatile and sensitive. You can dial in the right amount of treble or bass depending on the guitar you use and its pickups. The Gain knob controls how much gain you send to the circuit. The sound of the Rumble Drive is never harsh or brittle. It has a smooth breakup and retains much of the guitar's dynamics even at high overdrive settings. At a 2 o'clock gain setting, the Rumble Drive reaches its maximum gain. Once you get past this point, there is no more gain left, but the overdrive tone becomes more complex and harmonically rich. Turn it all the way up and you get a very sweet overdrive with loads of harmonics! When the gain control is turned all the way to the left, the Rumble Drive produces very little to no gain at all. In this configuration, you can use the Rumble Drive as both a master output and a tone control. If you engage the Delay Reverb circuits and use the Rumble Drive output as a clean boost and the Tone knob as a master tone control, you can enhance the sound of the Delay or Reverb or both. If you want to introduce just a little drive, try cranking up the gain control a bit. This will give your Rockabilly riffs attitude and really make them jump out of your amp! The Delay in the Rumble Seat is about as sweet as it gets. With delay times ranging from 25ms to 650ms, going from a Rockabilly slap to a Gilmourish long delay trail is as easy as turning the knob. Let's take a look at the controls: Delay Controls the time of the

worth the high cost!
Three pedals in one, smart control set, great sound, low current demand, expensive but worth it!

Works great!
I only gave it 3 stars because it doesn't come with a power supply. I had one from another pedal and used that for now. I makes all the sounds and does the thing you want it to do pretty well. I just wish they would put in the description that it doesn't come with a power source.

When You're Ready To Step Up Your Game
It seems to be a pattern for most guitarists, start with a long string of guitars and amps till finally springing for the higher end item and wishing you had started with that. Same is true for pedals, multi-effects, all sorts of ordinary dedicated pedals till finally 'the one'. The Rumble Seat is 'the one' category.Exquisite tone, a delight to use with obvious knobs and no scrolling to menus, compact with the essential effects without patch cords.It even turns cheap amps into sonic glory.I wish I could have started with this one.

It is definitely from a different planet
So the sound is nice. But why build this in reverse? Maybe it’s me but amp, then delay, and reverb reading left to right. But the input on the right and output left like every other normal pedal. So why is the amp on the left and reverb on the right? Maybe I am being too picky and its nice for a multi effects but the order drives me crazy.
