AZOR Chorus Guitar Effect Pedal Pure Analog Mini Pedal for Electric Guitar True Bypass

I'm not a huge pedal guy, I try to keep things simple and pure, usually just plug straight into the amp and go. Have owned a few pedals and a some multi-fx units in the past but I try to keep it to the bare minimum these days because I try to keep it as real as possible. But I will have to say that I love this Azor analog delay, it's very addictive and I LOVE IT. It has spawned so much more creativity out of me. There is just a hint of noise when clicked on but nothing bad at all, it's a true bypass so when off it's the same as not even having it. I wentthrough the fx loop on my tube practice amp and it sounds very clean and smooth, I can't complain about anything... sounds perfect to my ears. It's built very solid. I HIGHLY recommend this pedal. Best $24.50 I have ever spent on an fx pedal. I might even buy another for a backup.

The Brown ReverbFor $25? Best deal on Amazon. I have spring reverb tanks in a few classic tube amps, but my VOX AC4TV doesn’t. I had a great sounding T-REX reverb pedal on top of it for over a decade, but I guess $19 only goes so far. This one has only one setting, spring, which is all I use. Sounds just like a spring tank to me. It’s very quiet, heavy, and small enough to leave on the top of the amp, where I can reach the knobs. I don’t need to reach the button because it’s always on. Not crazy about needing an adapter, but 9v batts are $6ea now!, so plug it is.

As a stand alone pedal, the Azor Overdrive earns high marks considering it costs less than $25.It has the small form factor and built well. Made out of metal, this mini pedal has has weight on it.I wanted to get the Mini Tubescreamer but decided on a cheaper copy or clone. I like to use a TS typepedal to boost my tube amp, a dirty channel or another dirt pedal. I was looking at the Kokko Overdrivesince I know that it's a TS clone. However, the Azor has an extra "hot" setting that made it more versatilein about the same price point. After a day of testing, to my surprise, my untrained ears tells me that it isnot a tubescreamer clone. It might be based on one but does not behave like it. I have a Hardwire CM-2which I believe is a more versatile TS variant as a comparison pedal. To me, there are 3 things that TS orTS type pedals do. 1. It cuts off bass frequencies. 2. Adds or boosts certain mid frequencies. 3. Rolls offthe top end for smoother clipping. The Azor had more bass than the CM-2, less mid hump and morehigh end coming out even when the tone knob is at noon. I detect a little fizziness on the high end whichI don't care for. It has plenty of gain than your regular TS. In fact, it was closer to the Caline Orange Burst,a BB Preamp clone than the CM-2. What happened to the saying: "If it is green, it must be a tubescreamer!"The "hot" setting clearly is louder, a boost in volume. I can't tell if that setting has more gain. When the gainis fully dimed, both settings were so compressed anyway that it's hard to tell. I'm a little disappointed thatI can't use it as a boost pedal. Well, I can, but I don't get the desired results that I'm accustomed to.It works as a good stand alone overdrive on a clean amp and can be pushed by a boost pedal. It's not goingback because it is so inexpensive and sounds good too. So far, instead of using it with my tube amps, it sitsin my small pedalboard for my wet/dry rig consisting of Boss Katana (solid state) & Vox Cambridge Twin (hybrid).UPDATE: This pedal is similar to my Fultone OCD v. 1.4 on an A/B test. Although not an exact copy but it comesclose. I was surprised since I haven't found any info about this on the net. Even the toggle switch on the Azormimmicks that on the OCD. Apparently, Azor has a clone of the OCD called the Leon Drive, which has the exactnaming of the toggle switch, HP & LP. So now I'm not sure where this pedal was modeled after. Perhaps amodded Boss Blues Driver? If anyone has compared this pedal with another, please share your thoughts. Thanks.

The pedal compresses guitar signals at a budget price. Very much worth what you pay - and then some.What's here: a big lighted compressor knob, EQ and Level controls, and a tiny enclosure built like a tank. What I find particularly useful is putting this compressor after EQ with boost, and before or after overdrive with boost. Since this compressor *also* has boost, you can shape your sound relative to both input and output levels at three contiguous stages in the pedal chain. Incredibly useful for varying timbres.What's not here: attack and sustain controls. Attack can be a bit much with heavy picking, but you learn quickly how to match your playing style to what the compressor can do.Feature-wise (and probably sound-wise), the pedal is like a bunch of other compressor pedals with similar features. In my case, it plays well with two AZOR overdrive pedals and a JOYO graphic EQ.The pedal board that it's on also has two inexpensive Behringer pedals (FX600 multi-effects and DR600 reverb) at the end. The board was built to prove that it's possible to combine the best of inexpensive pedals into a very functional, complete unit - and it is!I have more expensive effects pedals and pedal boards that are - yes - better in most respects. But the AZOR compressor filled out what is a great complement of inexpensive guitar pedals that are versatile and actually sound good. Kudos to AZOR for this pedal and the two previously purchased overdrive pedals, each of which is amazingly good for the $.Compression on single-coil clean Tele and Strat sounds with the AZOR compressor sounds great, is just what is needed.So if you haven't invested in simple compressor and EQ - plus optimally, a noise reduction pedal such as the Behringer NR300 - then just do it. EQ, compression, and noise reduction are the foundation of any electric or acoustic/electric guitar sound. And at these prices, there's no excuse not to.
