Tasty reverb pedal.
The Alabs Cetus is an Excellent Reverb pedal. NOT 'for the the money,' but compared to ANY reverb I've owned/used (over 30 years playing).Build/Use:I used a relatively cheap isolated power supply (500ma) and the Cetus produces NO UNWANTED NOISE.It's easy to use/manual easy to understand.Seems well made compared to the Strymon, Walrus Audio, Nordland, Coffee Shop, JHS, Peterson, TC Electronic, etc pedals it sits next to on my pedalboard. (And better made than a lot of mid to high priced brands I was disappointed with and returned or sold).It DOES NOT suck tone, or alter volume of dry signal (dry signal decreases past about 2 o'clock on mix knob to go fully wet if needed, eg, effects loop).Comes with a very nice pick, 4 stickers, little stick-on rubber base pad, and an easy to understand manual (printed on quality paper).Sound:The reverb tones are VERY impressive on every type/setting (I do keep modulation low or off on most - but up is great on the spring).The tones are the hi-fidelity type, not lo-fi. And sound very natural.The Plate, Spring, Hall, and Church are my favourites.I prefer normal/natural reverb sounds, so that affects my opinion. The Cetus does this very well, and then some.If you like really weird, artificial sounds, or reverbs that seem tacked on along-side your dry signal, this is not the reverb you are looking for.Cons:I don't really need freeze functions, and I would have preferred separate Pre-Delay and Modulation knobs rather than the little switch (Switch seems same quality as Strymon or Walrus Audio in feel/use, BTW).Also top mounted TRS stereo jacks would have been nice.Writing on pedal could have been a bit bigger, or used a more contrasting colour to help my knackered old eyes.Shiny knobs do reflect light a bit, but the look has grown on me.I can't comment yet on long term durability, obviously.Conclusion:Great sound, analogue dry-through, no tone suck, soft footswitch, true stereo, easy to use, well made, looks nice.Tone/effect quality and specific features (analogue dry-through, size) make this reverb pedal better than any other for my needs. And better than any reverb I've owned/tried at over 3 times the price.The Alabs Cetus Reverb is a 5 Star pedal, in ANY company, at ANY price point.

Must Have Pedal.
A New Guitar Pedal Manufacturer, I Was A Bit Dubious About This, But I Needn’t Have Worried, This Pedal Is Well Made And It Sounds Fantastic, Either On Clear Or Distortion, I’ve Got A Lot Of Big Name Brand Pedals, Fender, Walrus Audio, Catalinbread, Boss, Demon FX, TC Electronic, And This Pedal Definitely Rates With These.

Fantastic affordable reverb, but not weird at all.
I bought this on a whim, specifically for bass guitar. It has a useful blend control and plenty of good reverb effects ranging from subtle to intense. There is a function to hold the note indefinitely while holding a foot switch.This is great fun when combined with fuzz and distortion.In short, it's a solidly built, affordable reverb pedal. It isn't weird or unusable like some pedals. It's a great budget pick if you can't afford a Slö pedal.

Wow!!!!!!!!! UPDATE……Still Wow!!!!!
I am so impressed with this Reverb pedal!!!What incredible value!The sounds that this pedal produces is nothing but outstanding.Don't believe me? Check YouTube.I don't think you could find an all round better Reverb pedal, and not just in this price range either.Sounds are crisp and in clear stereo. Very little, if any interference noise.I am that impressed I will be buying the other 3 pedals soon.Watch this space, 'Alabs' remember the name. These pedals are brand new to the market and I am pretty sure prices will rise as the word spreads, which it is doing very quickly.If you are thinking about getting one or more of these 4 pedals, just go for it before they sell out.UPDATE-I have since bought the other 3 Alab pedals and I can tell you they are simply amazing!!The Timeslip Delay pedal is the best delay pedal I have ever used. It literally blew my mind when I first used it. Out of the 4 pedals I would say that the Timeslip delay is the best, but they are all fantastic.For value for money you won’t get better at this price range. These pedals are as good if not better than some at twice the cost and more.

Unleashing Sonic Creativity with Exceptional Functionality and Unique Tones
The media could not be loaded. After receiving the four ALABS pedals, I was pleasantly surprised after playing around with them for a couple of days. These pedals are exceptional tools that can significantly enhance your creativity in playing. They produce impressive ambient sounds and create a vast sonic space with a multitude of integrated effects, along with stereo functionality.With nine effects/pitch options on each pedal, the two-way switches provide added versatility for the freeze mode on reverb, whammy for pitch, tap rate setting for delay, and modulations (oh, those modulations are fantastic!). They also enable you to adjust various parameters, such as resonance, wave shapes, duty ratio, shift frequency, etc., for different effects on a selected two-way switch, other than modulation or tone control. The pedals can perform a myriad of functions beyond your imagination, and having a freeze effect on reverb in this price range is exceptionally rare—great value! Perhaps the best value you can find on the market.Exploring and taking advantage of these impressive functionalities will undoubtedly take some time, but it's a fun journey to acquaint yourself with them. The "infinity" or Explore Mode is a novel feature available on every pedal. It provides you with five seconds to memorize parameter changes for four knobs. You can easily recall them by holding the foot-switch in Explore Mode. Holding the footswitch and turning the two-way switch effortlessly clears the memory curves.The operation of this pedal is very intuitive, but it's essential not to just trust your instincts and plug them in without getting to know all the functionalities. There is much more than meets the eye. After a short learning curve, you'll find everything easy to control and adjust. The single LED can turn white, blue, yellow, purple, green, or red, indicating different functionalities for different settings. It allows you to hold the footswitch while powering up to turn the two-way switch and change between true bypass or buffer mode (you can decide which one suits you best depending on your signal flow).All pedals have a signature tone that you'll instantly recognize when you hear them. They produce spatial, high-tech, and psychedelic sounds. Beyond their luxurious functionalities, they can genuinely add more character to your playing.

Intéressante créative et unique mais pas du tout un bon Pitch Shifter
Je l'ai achetée pour les sons bizarres et les modulations qu'elle produit autour de la note transposée, et je ne suis donc pas déçu. Mais la pédale est inutilisable comme Pitch Shifter pur, la raison : Une trop grande latence ! Il y a un délai de plusieurs millisecondes entre la note originale et la note transposée donc oubliez le Pitch Shifter pur ! Pour cela vous avez Digitech avec ses Whammy et Ricochet, et Electro-Harmonix avec ses Pitch Fork qui font tous deux dans la perfection, sans latence avec glide et tout, mais sans modulation ni mémorisation de paramètres de jeu. Certes c'est plus cher mais aucune latence avec ces deux marques. Mais l'Alabs Orbital est très intéressante pour les modulations qu'elle apporte autour de la note transposée et la sorte de "morph" qu'elle propose avec sa fonction spéciale qui mémorise une "courbe" d'enregistrement du trajet des boutons Rate Detune Mix et Tone sur 5 secondes maximum. Une fois la mémorisation effectuée, vous pouvez jouer avec un son différent puis en pressant le switch le son se transformera devenant le son que vous avez mémorisé pendant 5 secondes. Seule limite, la transposition ne changera pas au moment du passage au son "morph" car ce bouton ne peut être mémorisé. Donc si vous aimez les sons fous bizarroïdes et uniques cette pédale est faite pour vous, sachant que la note transposée et trafiquée apparait comme un doublage à cause de la latence qui cause un léger retard, mais si vous cherchez un simple et bon Pitch Shifter cette pédale n'est pas pour vous. Etrangement le manuel insiste sur le fait que le son direct (sec) n'a aucune latence, mais oublie de dire que le son traité à une latence non négligeable du tout ! Une dernière anomalie : la couleur de la pédale n'est pas du tout rouge comme sur les photos du fabricant, c'est une sorte de rose légèrement orangé, incarnat ou nacarat très pâle et mat, rien à voir avec les photos, voyez les vidéos YT.
