Description

The Cherry Pie Tremolo is a clone of David Rolos Twin Peak Tap Tempo Harmonic Tremolo. It is an optical tremolo and features controls for Rate, Tone, Symmetry, Shape and Multiplicator. The rotary switch features 4 different tremolo modes:

  • Black Face (regular volume modulation)
  • Brown Face (modulation between bass and treble, like the Harmonic Vibrato in old Brown Face amps)
  • Bass modulation only, with fix treble
  • Treble modulation only, with fix bass

The TAPLFO chips was updated. For the new cip please leave X1 and C6/C7 empty. Also leave R10 and R12 empty!

The tap function enables the selection of speed per footswitch. Shape sets the waveform, the multiplicator changes the speed according to its setting. What makes a harmonic tremolo special is that the treble and bass are modulated seperately. This gives some really unique sounds.

This kit contains the pcb and all necessary parts. You can choose an enclosure, please buy knobs separately (for 6.3mm shafts).

5 from 5 Sounds good - fun to build

I have build only couple pedals before this one. They say that this insn’t beginners kit, but the pcb is so good that it’s easy to build.

Tremolo is very versatile and it sounds really good.

4 from 5 Very versatile tremolo

The versatility of this tremolo is astounding; many waveforms and adjustment for them.
After adjusting the trimpots inside the initial noise disappeared and I’m now very satisfied with this pedal.


Slight minus comes from the kit:
- place for the power socket was too cramped for me to fit on the supposed place on the back. Ended up installing a regular fat socket on the side instead.
- the holes for the 6.3mm sockets are a bit too close to footswitch holes. Perhaps moving the hole 1mm further towards the backside would enable free rotation of the socket when installing. This affects whichever the side you’re installing the 3PDT switch to.
- the provided capacitor for C1 prevents the installing of IC1, since there are no long legs on the cap and the ic slightly exceeds the socket boundary. Fixed this with long-legged round ceramic capacitor.

But the footswitches with the kit… just excellent! Best switches I’ve installed so far.
