They say: 

The Dot Chaser is a PT2399 based envelope optical modulator, "simulating" dusty cassette heads and worn out tape. This pedal can also cover light gain overdrive due to the internal LM386 power amp, as well as subtle chorus sounds.

Equipped with four controls:

  • Mix - Dials in amount of wet signal from Delay chip.
  • Lag - manipulates the single repeat delay time
  • Warp - controls the amount of modulation from the LDR network.
  • Vol - Master Volume Control

The "more" switch toggles between resistance in the LDR network allowing more intense or drastic modulation.

The sensitivity of modulation achieved is based on input level. Weak signals may not open the envelope.

Suggested Pairings:

The Dot Chaser works really well before or after a really lush chorus, it adds an extra touch of modulation, as well as the perfect amount of grit and unpredictability. If placed at the beginning of your chain, try turning the "Mix" control all the way down and use it as an Overdrive.

By placing it at the end of your chain, give every pedal before it that unpredictable nauseating warble. The Dot Chaser works really well with Phasers before it for a really psychedelic rock sound. Another great application I've found is turning down the "Warp" control, and using the single delay repeat as a way to add movement or texture to a fuzzed out lead riff!

Only “tough” toy my Doberman loves!
Pattern Name: Octopus
Not indestructible, but last a good long while. Definitely worth the money and lasts longer than any other plush toys we’ve had (which is all my dog will play with). It’s for sure my Dobermans favorite, I’ve ordered probably 10 at this point. He gets the stuffing out after a month or two and we open a new one. He’s picky with toys, either destroys them or ignores them, but he never gets bored with his octopus! 🐙 He sneaks one outside once in a while and the neighbor’s dogs steal it. They love it too and thankfully can’t destroy before I retrieve it.

Great for a Pitball
Pattern Name: Octopus
I have a Pitbull and she absolutely loves this toy. I always wait a while before giving a review. She has had this toy Since the beginning of July and she is still playing with this toy. It does have little holes but it is still going. She loves it. Playing tug of war with her. I also take it and wrap it around her collar and watch her dance around trying to get it out(I don't leave it there long). This a great buy. I also bought and extra one so when this one does finally dies she will have another. The material is strong, The sound is about normal for a squeaky toy.

Cute, but not tough enough.
Pattern Name: Octopus
This toy is cute, my pug loves it, and I like how the legs are strong but the top of the octopuses head isn't tough enough which is worrisome because thats where the squeaker is. It might work out for a smaller dog though.
