SONICAKE QSS-08 5th Dimension Digital Modulation Guitar Pedal Phaser Flanger Chorus Tremolo Vibrato Autowah Guitar Effects Pedal 11 Modes

Very good pedal with several effects.. But you need to try out the settings to get the right sweet spot for the sound that you want. The Phaser sounds good and clean. Both Flanger effects are very strong. You need to keep the depth and the rate at a low setting for Jet Flane BR and the Jet Flane. Cryin' Bot sounds amazing. I'm yet to find the good Chorus settings - not used them much. Both Liquid Trem and Opto Trem sound very nice and prominent. I don't think I'll ever use Lo-Fi.Cons: the control knobs are very small. Text can be difficult to read, specially in dim lighting or stage settings.Still, overall very happy with the product. :) Would wanna try more of Sonicake's pedals.P.S. Can anyone tell what BR means on JET FLANE BR?

The Sonicake 5th Dimension is a mini sized digital pedal containing 11 different varieties of modulation including Phase, Flange, Chorus, Tremolo and Rotary.First thoughts on unpacking is that this pedal is built like a tank! Its reassuringly solid and heavy in the hand with one large mode selector to choose the modulation type and three small light-up knobs to control Mix (effect level), Depth (effect depth) and Rate (controlling effect speed). The soft touch on/off switch is a pleasant surprise on a pedal in this price point, engaging gently without the customary clunk.A lot of thought has been put into the presentation of this pedal too, with the inclusion of two cards detailing the 11 modulation effects and a decent quality patch lead & pre cut velcro strip to help you incorporate it straightaway into your pedalboard.Like all mini sized pedals the Sonicake 5th Dimension has no option for battery power but a standard Boss Style 9v centre negative power supply (not included) works just fine.The 11 effects are Phaser, 2 varieties each of Flange, Chorus, Tremolo and vibrato, an Auto-Wah and a Ring Modulator effect. Sound quality throughout is excellent and all settings are very useable to various degrees. With each effect its definitely worth taking some time playing around with the Mix, Depth & Rate controls to find the sweet spot for each and then making a note of each. I particularly liked the ability with the Mix control to set a very subtle level of each effect to avoid it becoming overpowering.After spending time working through and adjusting each effect Stereo chorus is definitely my personal favourite - a really rich chorus effect that sounds fantastic played through a clean amp with some reverb. The Rotary and Tremolo effects came a close second for quality & usability. The Ring Modulator effect (labelled Lofi) is probably the exception as its an effect I never really understood nor used, but I have to admit even this was fun playing around with the balance between the clean and effected signal for some very weird robotic crushed sounds!With the absence of presets and a volume level difference between some of the different effects I'm not convinced that I'd want to be changing effects in a live environment, but that's not really the point because most of all I think this pedal shines as a tool for home use, recording and just finding sounds to inspire and enhance your playing. I'm not usually a big user of modulation effects and I don't have pedalboard space (or the money!) to load up with a selection of different ones - for me its usually a choice between phase, tremolo or chorus - and I'm never satisfied with the one I end up with! This pedal is a great value solution to this dilemma, and a perfect option for the effects newbie who wants to find out what modulation effects can do.

小型・多機能・高価でないモジュレーションペダルを幾つか使ってきましたが、こいつが一番使いやすく且つ面白いです。音痩せは一切なし。ONにしたらむしろ音量上がるものもある。だから、MIXツマミの効き幅に余裕があります。2種類のコーラス以外は、MIXを0にするとエフェクト音も原音も0になって何も聞こえなくなるという謎の面白仕様です。コーラスは、歪みと合わせても揺れない(フランジャーみたいにならない)設定にできます。フットスイッチ長押しでタップテンポになります。Lofiモード以外は全てにタップテンポが効きます。Cyrin'Bot(オートワウというより、フィルター)モードでタップテンポ設定すると、本物ワウを足でチャカポコチャカポコ短い間隔で動かす設定から、ゆっくりジワーっと長い間隔でワウを踏む設定までできる。オートワウは基本？ピッキングの強弱でワウの動きを再現すると思いますが、こいつのはワウ+フィルターの要素なので、ピッキング強弱ではなくて足下のスイッチでワウの感覚を出している。このワウ+フィルターはハマります。とはいえ、本物の足で動かすワウのようにはいきませんが。Lofiは操作の簡略化された良く効くリングモジュレーターっぽくもなります。これは、値段以上に楽しませてくれます。

Sounds are fun and pretty good quality with a solid variety. The knobs at the top are very small and hard to adjust for me.

Not quite as good as Sonicake’s absolutely outstanding Sonicbar series, but still well worth the money. It’s not without its faults but for approximately £3.50 per effect this represents outstanding value. I bought it mainly as a cheap way to get a Flanger and a Phaser, and to fill in the gaps in my pedal collection and it’s great for that purpose. You can only activate one effect at a time but that this is not as much of a compromise as it sounds since the difference between the various effects on offer can be subtle. As a Chorus junkie I was delighted to have two more styles to have a play with, and the Stereo Chorus especially gives a lush, deep sound. My only criticism is that it can be too easy to overtweak the parameters on some of the effects, especially the “jet plane” phaser and the flanger. Only the first third of the pot rotation is usable before the sounds devolve into an uncontrollable mess. Maybe it’s unfair to criticise for this because at least the scope is there if extreme pshychodelia is your thing. There’s some real left field effects provided, but far better to get a ring modulator included in this great deal than pay full price for a pedal I might only use three times in my life. Overall this is a great pedal to experiment with and will help me decide which effects I might want to invest more money in for a future full featured standalone pedal.

Ich würde durch einen Freund auf das Gerät gebracht. Ich dachte zuerst "toll, nicht vom Fachhandel, 50 Euro und dann auch noch gleich mehrere Effekte. Das wird nichts".Ganz ehrlich, es entwickelt sich zu meinem neuen Liebling. Zugegeben, einige Effekte werde ich nicht nutzen, da ich bereits einen Chorus z.B. halbe, aber als leichter Hintergrund effekt, etwa das Vibrato oder Lofi, hübscht den Sound insgesamt wirklich schon auf und macht ihn Dynamischer.Besonders überrascht bin ich über die Qualität. Es ist ausgesprochen robust, der Schaltung funktioniert einwandfrei, es ist eine Befestigung für das Pedalboard mitgeliefert und es gibt weder bei Gebrauch noch bei Bypass Geräusche ab.Insgesamt für den Preis wohl unschlagbar als nette Ergänzung für die Effektsammler.
