I got the Mind Bender about 2 years ago. I thought I would try it since I have the Sonic Stomp (best tone shaping pedal ever). THIS PEDAL ROCKS!!! It's like two pedals in one. Watch out everyone. BBE isn't a one trick pony anymore. I checked out their other effects, and they all sound good.

Great 2 in 1

I just received my Mind Bender and so far I'm pretty impressed with it. There is a wide range of tones available between the vibrato and the chorus. The enclosure and switches are sturdy. That paint job is just cool. I would have preferred two different colors for the vibrato/chorus LEDs, green and yellow are just too similar to my eyes. With my PRS SE Hollowbody and Lonestar Special I can get some really soulful chorusing and wild vibrato. Over all I'd reccomend this to anyone looking for a Leslie simulator.

Finally After Extensive Searching

After trying just about every chorus pedal there is, and not being satisfied with anything except for the Small Clone, I finally came across this pedal. My Small Clone kept popping when you cut it on and off, and I was going to get it fixed or get another one, but I thought I'd give this pedal a try, and it is a great pedal. I can get sound equal to the Small Clone and more. The vibrato on this pedal is really sweet also. I give 4.5 on features because it is pretty basic, and also on value since it isn't really cheap, but all in all well worth the money. The chorus is very mellow but can be dialed in for some strange sounds if you want. I highly suggest this pedal.

first of all its true bypass so when its off its really off. im not a stickler on true bypass but i am for a good bypass in any situation.

the chorus is a good lush sound which is well represented on the youtube demo's of it easy to operate. bright LED's.

the vibrato is everything that i hoped for sonically. at first i felt nervous because i was having trouble sort of feeling out how to use the sounds. i knew what i was looking for from songs i know. however the manual give some pretty great starting presets. pretty soon i was on my way to getting awesome accurate leslie vibe's and great lush chorus sounds.

as for why i gave a 3.5 on features thats just me being a little snobby in wishing it had stereo outputs, and independent controls for the vibe and chorus section. instead of having to dial around between to your favourite vibe setting and your favourite chorus setting. third and my pickiets of all for features i felt that the knobs could have had a wider ratio to make finer fine tunings of speed and depth.

over all really great pedal, all analog, sounds amazing and a reasonable price... i wouldn't hesitate to buy another one.
