I finally got one of these things at a local music shop and my god is it great. It replaced five of my pedals.
I know a lot of people on here like em so I wanted to start this thread.

Delay and Chorus for sure. Whammy? Octaver (I doubt it) I don't really know after that, but I'm curious. |

So praise it. | sounds like it should cover your delay and octave for a bit as well, so make it 5 - it's official.
Dangittaheck I want one! |

Dangittaheck I want one! | It's definitely a cool pedal. I primarily use it with an expression pedal, but occasionally it's nice to have a delay at the beginning of my chain too. The most unique use I've got out of it was using it in Mode 7 into my S&H filter during the bridge of one of our songs. |

Tremolo picking and some delay/verb.....thing's freakin blissful.
I've also been using the dual detuned chorus sound a lot. verrry lush. |

Dude try mode 4 with feedback at 3 oclock and make the detune completely normal (no detune) and you have an awesome reverb like crazy cool.

The PS-2 has a fantastic delay, otherwise its settings on bass are pretty horendous.

I got it for $100 second hand. So I guess between $80-$100. |

I picked up a new one with an expression pedal though, and now im back in PS-3 heaven
