Prescription Electronics’ Throb pedal is a tremolo effect pedal designed for use with electric guitar, but suitable for use with any electronic instrument. I don’t know too much about Prescription Electronics, but after using this pedal it’s clear to see that they do great work. This pedal is actually designed after Electro-Harmonix's Pulsar tremolo pedal. The pedal is standard as far as it’s characteristics go, with ¼” connections for your input and output, and a nine volt power supply is required to power it up. It isn’t rack mountable as it’s a foot pedal.
UTILIZATION
The configuration of the Prescription Electronics Throb is pretty easy to follow, and I can’t foresee too many users having an issue with using it. The parameters that it has to work with are for intensity, and two separate speed controls. It has two buttons - one for engaging/bypassing the pedal and one for choosing between the two speed parameters. It also has a switch for mode, which is between 'trem' and 'chop.' A manual won't be necessary, even for less experienced users.
SOUND QUALITY
The Prescription Electronics Throb tremolo pedal is definitely up there with the best tremolo pedals that I've used. There is a lot of control over your sound, but in general it does have it's own kind of sound. I've used the pedal on a recording session where I was not the player, but the engineer. He was playing a Gibson Les Paul and also had a few other pedals. We actually have one of these on hand at the studio where I work, but have only had the chance to use it on the one session so far. Besides the Pulsar pedal that this was modeled after, I don't really know what pedal I would liken it to, but it doesn't sound unlike the tremolo you'll find on classic Fender amplifiers. The Electro-Harmonix Pulsar pedal that this is modeled after was definitely a good choice to model a pedal after as the Pulsar pedal is hard to find and sounds incredible.
OVERALL OPINION
If you're looking for a top tier tremolo pedal, you're absolutely going to get that with the Prescription Electronics Throb. It's a lot easier to pick up one of these than it would be to find an original Electro Harmonix Pulsar pedal, although this pedal isn't exactly cheap. There are a number of great tremolo pedals out there, and I'd recommend doing your research and checking out a bunch of them, but there's no way you can go wrong with this one...
