An amazing pedal with a serious flaw
jire 15.10.2019
Absolutely love this pedal - it has a great look, solid build and it really dones something that few others can but unfortunately it has one major flaw - it produces quite a bit of loud hiss/white noise as it modulates the low-pass filter. this was initially inaudble to me when i watched demo vids of the pedal but now that i'm aware of the sound, i can head it in the demo vids too. It is very extreme when put through an amplifier and unfortunately I thnk this may make it unusable for some users.

Lush Lo-Fi pedal
woollie 13.12.2021
I use this pedal to bring Lo-Fi life to samples from a computer. It Works great with everything from drums to strings to pianos etc. It does produce a weird high pitch noise that makes the pedal unsuitable for live use but in the studio it's very easy to notch the frequencies. It's a solid build that feels great.

It's great, but not for me
Derk H. 28.09.2021
In the beginning it takes some getting used to, but once you get it, you got it. I found that I never use it for recording music though. This is because the whole lofi, worbly music stuff is great to listen to for me, but I don't want to make that type of music. So I would recommend anyone who considers buying this pedal to thing about whether the sound of this pedal fits your personal playing style.

Hope this was stereo
Blippo 01.08.2021
The sound this pedal produce is very unique. It doesn't sound like any other modulation pedal (until you know how to dial it up to sound like a chorus, that's included in the manual). Beware of the trimpot inside the pedal: to change how the LPG works you have to be very careful and not turn it too much because it's really difficult to turn back to factory settings. In essence this is a must have also for synth players that love how the rate knob acts with its random modulations. Sadly it's only mono. If this was stereo this already great pedal could become fantastic.

Stellar example from Fairfield Circuitry
galore 05.08.2022
Shallow Water is state-of-the-art pedal from Fairfield Circuitry, true to their philosophy of going few steps beyond what is expected. In principal it’s a modulation effect based on input dynamics. It is subtle but very ambiental effect and you can get old tape quirks as well as random chorusy effect. Splitting a mono signal and feeding two of these in parallel would give you true stereo. I use it on bass but it can be used on just about anything one can think of.

Something Special
whogaux(Cartoon, WATEVA) 26.12.2022
This little thing has a lovely character. It's extremely simple to turn static lead sounds form a preset into something magical. Every time when i feel the element in the track needs something to give it some "humanness" or "randomization" i turn to this guy. It just breathes some life into leads and basses.

The only two downsides it has for me are
1) would love it to be stereo, but its not the end of the world, as i can compensate for this after i've resampled the audio back into ableton
2) sometimes the lower frequencies of bass sounds lose a bit of phatness, but again this can be compensated after resampling.

But other than that, it gets used in basically every project, on multiple different elements.

Love it!

Unique and Subtle Pedal
Julius the first 17.01.2022
Didn't really like it at first, but once you get to know it, it opens up and turns out to be a wonderful, unique and subtle piece of gear, not only for guitar but for so many other applications

KFM Shallow Water
JamieT 19.07.2019
There is absolutely nothing more to be said about Fairfield Circuitry pedals, other than that they are unique, original design audio tools and they all play in a category of their own. Shallow Water KFM is no exception. A Dynamic, sweet and expressive, analog bbd, random chorus/vibrato modulator
