The Seymour Duncan Shape Shifter Tremolo pedal is an all analog, dual mode tremolo pedal. The SFX-07 Rate mode allows a steady speed from 1 to 20 cycles per second to be manually adjusted by the rate knob. In Ratio mode, the tap switch sets the rate of the tremolo and also gives you the option of setting a tap-to-note ratio: 1:1, 2:1, 3:1, or 4:1. With this function the Shape Shifter Tremolo lets you decide on 1/4 notes, 1/8 notes, triplets, or 1/16 notes. Another distinctive feature of the Shape Shifter Tap Tremolo is the Shape control. Normally a tremolo has an even relationship between the time that the volume increases and decreases. With the Shape knob at 12 o'clock, this characteristic is maintained, however when you move it left or right, the relationship changes. The SFX-07 will deliver a short volume increase followed by a longer volume decrease or vice-versa which will add a very different feel to the overall effect.
The Seymour Duncan Shape Shifter is a very natural sounding Tremolo. The all analog signal path keeps your tone pristine and gets a very vintage vibe from the Shape Shifter. With the Wave control, the SFX-07 can deliver smooth creamy tremolo or choppy square wave style chop. When a short volume increase is coupled with a long volume decrease via the Shape control, the tone gets very percussive and piano-like. We found the Tap control extremely useful in a live situation where the drummer is your metronome and quick changes are a must. The Seymour Duncand SFX-07 Shape Shifter Tremolo is the most versatile tremolo pedal we've seen and it also delivers the vintage '50's style tone that most tremolo fans will adore.
That pedal is SICK
I love the 3:1 setting!
You just have to keep the knob within the boundary for that ratio. It's a dual function knob so that's why it's not crucial to be exact.
very great pedal. the only problem i had with the pedal is that the tap polarity is the opposite of how i want it. i just modded it to have a tap tempo out jack so i can plug in a tap tempo pedal and change the polarity on the pedal. works the way i want it to now.
Great review! Really shows what this pedal can do.
This is a true champ and at a reasonable price.
Yes.I have one and you are correct.
@indierickenbacker you are correct
Mine is in the mail!
How does this pedal work with effects before it in the chain? Specifically Fuzz, OD, and other high gain effects. Will it effect the LFO? Or can the Trem still be super choppy regardless of what's before it? (Like a good vox amp trem or something)
Boooooooorn on the Bayouu!!
That's no problem at all. How many times will you change a tremolo tempo in a song? I received mine and used it on the same day in a gig, on a song that tap tempo was crucial, and it was very good.
Is anyone else confused by the ratio locations? It seems that when the demonstrator wants a 1:1 ratio, he points the dial all the way left; when he wants a 4:1, he goes all the way right; but when he wants 2:1 or 3:1 he points the dial to the numbers themselves, which is not where the knob is when it's all the way left or right.
Is it always going to be 1:1, 2:1, 3:1 or 4:1, so long as it's within those 4 zones, without gradation within the zones?
The only thing that really bugs me on mine is that you can't set the time when it's bypassed, so live, you gotta step on it and get tapping quick!
This sounds like a great box for the money. But if you want a really bad ass trem, check out the Diamond.
@thricex05 Sorry, what do you mean by tap polarity?
the complaint i hear about this pedal is that it has to be engaged to set the tap tempo... which is a bad idea. It can be modded easily... and I don't know they wouldn't make that mod standard. That and an internal volume trim would be golden.
look on their website.
If you're playing live and want to match the tempo of your tremolo to the tremolo of the song, you'll need to tap it in.
@ProGuitarShopDemos
Great--that's what I figured
sounds like the supa trem only with more features
Dude, it's a trem. Lots of clean or lead parts use tremolo
Tremulus Lune with tap tempo
@androidophanium yes. its a simple lfo
I hear this pedal is discontinued. Anyone know where I can get one?
This is the same type of effect used on the intro of Green Day Blvd. of Broken Dreams, most specifically, the settings you see at the end of this video where it sounds really choppy.
exelente !!!!
Best trem evar?
@BlisterOnTheMoon it's better cause of the tap tempo. imo you can't put a price on being able to adjust tempo on the fly. after all its a bitch trying to get it right live on the first try w/ your drummer. but if you're a studio musician or just want it to mess around with for yourself you should go for something cheaper.
Is this similar to the EHX Pulsar??
what song is that at 6:36?
wow soo amazing, any1 know how much this is??
Potentially nice if used with a synth or some other sound source, but it sounds less than extraordinary with the guitar...
no! there's no volume drop. i have one:)
CCR
tempo* of the song. Excuse me.
Exactly WHEN should i need this effect pedal lol? ;p i dont know if i like it...
@zepredator It's faster and easier to do live.
sounds very unlively and flat, kind of gives me a headache
