The Cusack Music Tremolo AME (Amplitude Modulation Emulator) is an analog tremolo pedal offering a preset bank and tap footswitch for a balance between versatility and simplicity. Less experimentative than the Tap-A-Whirl but provides quality-of-life features beyond a basic single-control tremolo. Boutique American construction from Cusack Music. Suited for players who want a straightforward tap tempo tremolo with preset capability without the full 24-waveform range of the Tap-A-Whirl.
The TC Electronic Pipeline Tap Tremolo is a tap-tempo tremolo with TonePrint from TC Electronic (Aarhus, Denmark), delivering tap-tempo controlled tremolo with sine, square, and sawtooth waveforms and TonePrint technology for downloadable artist tremolo presets. The Pipeline provides rhythmically-locked tremolo that syncs to playing tempo via tap.
