Nice for the price
First impression from the three presets are that they are ok. Not excellent, but ok. However, the salt of the pedal is that you can tweak pretty much everything and I managed to find some very nice sounds from the neuro editor. There is a lot of different drive engines, some mediocre, or unusable (for my taste), but some are just awesome. It takes time to learn how to use the editor, but it's worth it. I have spend couple of days playing with this, and I still feel like I've only scratched the surface.
My biggest concern is that neither the desktop or iOS version of the editor are that good/stable nor have good usability. I had the desktop editor freezing or stuck in single virtual knob without getting to do anything but reboot my computer (win 10) and the iOS version for iPad... it's even worse. It kept loosing the edits and I couldn't access either the library or community preset every other time using it. So basically when desktop version keeps freezing, I switch wires and use iOS until it starts messing with me again - so I switch back to desktop et cetera. I really hope Source Audio updates/fixes their app(s)!
That being said, I'm still keeping the pedal, because for the price it's awesome and it's got me playing more, since I like to experiment with the settings and different drive engines.
One other thing. Not sure about the bybass, there is a big volume drop when not using the pedal so maybe it is not true bybass. I think I have to experiment a bit whether the fault is the bybass, settings or what…
Pros:
+no hiss or hum of any kind!
+power adapter included!
+three decent factory presets, but huge load of other available from community or make them yourself
+Did I mention that there is no hiss or hum?
Cons:
-Neuro editor seems to malfunction/freeze with this pedal a lot more (both desktop and iOS) than with my other Source Audio pedal from One series
-Drains at least 150mA, which is a bit difficult if using basic power bank for pedal board, as some have only 100mA available. But I think this is not that different from other digital pedals, so just buy a bigger/better power bank.

Vaativa särö
Todella monipuolinen särö jossa on potentiaalia vaikka mihin monipuolisten asetteluidensa ja muutaman tallennuspaikan puolesta.
Vaatii kuitenkin melkoisesti paneutumista asetteluihin, jotta tästä saa täyden potentiaalin irti, eikä tämän app ole kaikkein selkeimmästä päästä. Saundit myös kuulostavat lähtökohtaisesti hiukan ohkaisilta, joskin tämä on varmasti korjattavissa sillä että jaksaisi ruuvata asetuksia pidempään. Laite tuntuu fyysisesti hiukan heppoiselta joten laadusta ei voi antaa kummoisia pisteitä.
