The Electro Harmonix Super Pulsar Stereo Tap Tremolo Pedal is currently retailing at £159.99 and it is preorder. Available to be delivered to you by post direct (some charge may apply). The top pedal chef at Just Pedals thinks that Electro Harmonix nailed it here.
The Electro Harmonix Super Pulsar Stereo Tap Tremolo is perhaps the most versatile tremolo pedal available today. This pedal delivers every kind of tremolo effect you could ever need from the subtle to the insane in a way that is intuitive and easy to work around.
Incredible Control
You can control pretty much anything you could ever need to control with a tremolo thanks to this pedal. You have 8 knobs at the top of the tremolo that control volume, phase, wave, shape, depth and rate as well as envelope depth and envelope rate that reacts to how hard you are picking. No other tremolo offers you this much control on your pedalboard. Everything from a vintage classic tremolo to weird and wonderful unheard effects are at your fingertips with this pedal. Did we mention that you can also store 8 different presets so you don’t need to reprogram the entire thing between every track.
It doesn’t quite end there though not by a long shot. You can also plug in an expression pedal that can control either rate, depth, shape, phase or volume your choice. This opens up a whole world of morphing tremolo sounds that move with the expression pedal adding some real life to your performance. Last but by no means least you can also program a rhythm for the tremolo to follow that can be up to 16 steps long. You can save up to 9 of these presets at any given time so enough for an entire gig easily.
Range Of Sounds
As standard you have triangle, pulse and sine waved as standard but the added rhythm function means you can set up any 16 step sequence you could ever need. Plus with the tap divide section you have 5 different settings for thins like triplets. These waves can them be morphed with the shape tool which will take you through every kind of tremolo shape you would expect on the built in waves but again the rhythm control gives you much more power over your sound.
One other very cool switch is the xRate mode which takes it in to super speed and creates a ring modulation like effect. With this turned on and an expression pedal connected to the rate control you can get some really awesome dynamic ring modulation effects that you can control on the fly. You can even reverse the envelope on a lot of these effects which opens up even more opportunities for incredible sounds.

A pedal is an electronic device that alters the sound of an electric guitar by applying various effects. Pedals are typically connected in a series between the guitar and amplifier, allowing guitarists to switch effects on and off with their feet while playing.
This enables musicians to quickly and easily change their sound, adding versatility and creativity to their performances.
Pedals are essential tools in many musical genres, including rock, blues, jazz, and metal, allowing artists to craft distinctive and dynamic soundscapes.
Once you buy one, you can’t stop and then you have to sell them and buy more.
This product is available to Pre Order.
Stereo refers to a sound setup or effect that uses two channels (left and right) to create a sense of space and dimension in the audio. In a stereo configuration, sounds are panned across the left and right speakers or headphones, providing a more immersive and dynamic listening experience compared to mono, which uses only a single channel.
In the context of guitar pedals, a stereo pedal can output a signal to two separate channels, offering a broader soundstage and enhancing effects like delay, reverb, chorus, and panning. This allows for more complex and expansive soundscapes, with some pedals offering true stereo outputs to achieve rich, spatial effects that evolve across both channels. Popular stereo pedals include the Strymon Timeline, Eventide H9, and Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail Stereo, which all utilise stereo outputs to create rich, evolving tones that feel more immersive in a performance or recording setting.
A tap pedal, often called a tap tempo pedal, allows musicians to manually set the tempo or speed of certain effects, such as delay or modulation, by tapping the pedal in time with the music. This feature is particularly useful for live performances, where the tempo of a song may change or the musician needs to sync their effects to the rhythm of the music on the fly.
Tap tempo pedals typically have a footswitch that responds to the musician’s taps, calculating the tempo based on the rhythm. This makes it easier to adjust effects like delay or chorus without needing to manually adjust settings or rely on preset tempos. Many modern delay, reverb, and modulation pedals from brands like Boss, TC Electronic, and Line 6 include a tap tempo feature, enhancing flexibility and control during performances.
Tremolo is a modulation effect that varies the volume of a guitar signal at a controlled speed and depth, creating a pulsing or wavering sound. This effect is achieved by rapidly increasing and decreasing the amplitude, producing anything from a subtle, shimmery movement to a dramatic, choppy stutter. Tremolo was one of the earliest built-in amp effects, famously used in vintage Fender amplifiers. Modern tremolo pedals offer classic analogue circuits or digital flexibility with features like tap tempo and wave shape control. Popular tremolo pedals include the Boss TR-2, Fulltone Supa-Trem, and Strymon Flint, making it a favourite for surf rock, blues, indie, and experimental music.
