"UV300 Provides Vibraphone Quality to Chords."

After buying two other Behringer Pedals which work just fine, I decided to try a Vibrato Pedal primarily because it was rather fun purchasing a stomp box for only $25 bucks.
The UV300 Vibrato Pedal has become one of my primary pedals. I play at lot of "clean chordal comping jazz stuff" and the pedal gives the chords a rather "vibraphone quality" which is quite beautiful when combined with a little reverb.
.
One of the things to understand is; The UV300 is NOT a Tremolo Pedal. It provides Frequency Modulation to the guitar much as a whammy bar does. That's what it's supposed to do and the pedal does it quite nicely. Vibrato is Modulated Frequency. Tremolo is Modulated Amplitude. Don't confuse the two. If you're looking for that "Bo Diddley Tremolo Sound" get a Tremolo Pedal.
The pedal is also capable of provided more "radical modulations" to the guitar but as I'm just a humble Jazz Guitar Student playing clean most of the time I'm no subject matter expert on what to do with the more extreme settings.
Overall, the UV300 is a keeper and a fun device.

This works really well for the price. It's understandable that it came in plastic instead of an aluminum case. I would recommend for at home or for jam sessions, but not to sure for a live set...

I wouldn't even use this if I were at the gig and had nothing else to use. I would just set it aside and play the guitar flat! That's how bad it is.
Sound
Terrible. The thing sounds more like a BAD chorus pedal. I bought it for the "classic" vibrato effect. It is nothing like the classic 60's, 70's vibrato effects. The "RISE" control doesn't seem to do much. And of course for ture "classic" vibrato, you wouldn't want any modulation. So that is a real problem.
Features
Behringer is trying to give us the extra option to introduce more or less modulation to give more of a chorus sound, but the "RISE" control didn't seem to do much. And it really sounded terrible no matter how I set the controls. I wouldn't clasify the sound as vibrato nor chorus. Just a trashy cheap sound.
Ease of Use
They tried.
Quality
It was defective. There was an audible electronic clicking no matter if the pedal was active or inactive.
Value
No matter what the price, it has to work!
