'DigiTech's iStomp is well conceived and well realised, and definitely goes on my recommended list'.
The DigiTech iStomp is an entirely new concept in pedals. It works just like a traditional stompbox with one huge exception. It can be completely reconfigured with an iOS device and loading it with any of the 28 (and growing) e-pedals available in the Stomp Shop app.
'Two effects are downloadable free of charge to get you started: the Redline Overdrive and Total Recall Delay. Both are suprisingly good, the delay in partiuclar showing that the iStomp is based on some good, solid audio engineering, with clean digital conversion, low noise (101dB signal-to-noise), and plenty of input headroom (maximum 7.8dBu)'.
'Even better, and unusual in a pedal-type delay, it offers 'dynamic delay', with the dry signal attenuating the repeats by a user-set amount until you pause playing and allow a tail to come thorough'.
'...this is a really useful concept, well realised via good-sounding hardware...'
The full review can be found in the June issue (Vol 27, Issue 8) of Sound On Sound magazine. The DigiTech iStomp is also available now at £159 RRP.
