I'm looking for a tremolo that is cheap, small, good-sounding, and has a tap tempo. Sadly that doesn't seem to exist.

The Invalid Link Removed is small and cheap.
The Joyo is even cheaper, and while it doesn't have a tap tempo, the led pulses at the speed of the tremolo, so that's pretty nice.
The Link Removed is very cheap too, and has the pulsing led AND triangle square wave LFO.

Has anybody tried both of these out? I need to set a tempo-synced tremolo, so the pulsing led is nice. Is the sound quality different? On the youtube demos, the Mooer seems to have a slightly nicer sound than the Joyo, but it's hard to tell.
 
The guitarist has a joyo tremolo. I tried it out and thought it was pretty good. The LED is pretty funky. If I could find an application for one myself, I would think it would suffice. Can't compare to the mooer, as I haven't tried it. I think the majority of Joyo stuff is pretty good, and can get a bit of a hard rap.
 
Oh my, there are a lot of cheap tremolos out there...
So far, I'm seeing:
Mooer
Joyo
Meon
Danelectro Cool Cat
Danelectro Tuna Melt (What's the difference???)
Behringer Tremolo/Panner
Behringer UltraTrem (Doesn't the Trem/Pan do all the same and more?)

Uhhh... Brain losing feeling... I might actually go for the Behringer :eek: Tremolo/Panner, it's $25, has a rate indicator LED, and square/triangle waveform knob.
