Rocktron Reaction Tremolo
Rocktron · pedal
The Rocktron Reaction Tremolo is part of the Reaction series of analogue pedals, producing tremolo — rhythmic variation in volume, distinct from the pitch-varying vibrato it is often confused with. The Reaction line covers standard effect types at accessible prices rather than pursuing distinctive voicing. Independent coverage of this specific pedal is limited, so this description does not assert waveform options or control layout that sources do not establish.
