Harley Benton MiniStomp Alien Signal

I wanted a bit crusher to try out some experimental new tones and this one definitely meets my expectations, with solid build quality at a very reasonable price.

The main Crush setting has a pretty cool range and you can get some ridiculous "digital" sounds out of it. The mix dial is very usable and lets you blend in your preferred amount of crush.

It also does a nice job with boost, overdrive or fuzz pedals in front of it, and this pedal has potential for some crazy spacerock/cybermetal tones. And if you want to play old school Nintendo game theme songs, it will do that too.

My only gripe is the Bit setting is really only useable at 0-1 or the pedal creates a lot of noise and static - although a noise gate might allow for some interesting crushed out tones.

Overall, it's a great little pedal and a cool addition to my collection. If you're thinking about trying out a bit crusher, it's a no brainer.
