Yes, indeed you can to a degree. I have both the newer and older Rotovibes and tweaked them accordingly, the new one in particular has a much more pronounced (and slightly less "natural") warble which sounds rather alien and far too fast toe down. So I tweaked it and it was much better.

With the wah/vol or wah/trem pedals there's always the balancing act - usually a compromise between the two effects and ranges. 

Whilst it is not a super drastic boost I really enjoyed the TVP-1 for having de-gaining a dirty amp into clean (set lower volume knob) then pushing it a bit more as you toe down (second knob set higher than unity).

With the TVP-1 I have not felt the need to adjust the rack/pinion as yet. Seems set pretty well, Blippy tremolo at full tilt but still noticeably tremolo.
I'll have to pull it out again and give it a whirl!

I'm someone addicted to picking up those old cumbersome 90s Dunlop double treadle pedals.  Pondering modding the JH-1F Fuzz/wah at the moment!

My big 90s Dunlop Tremolo is really killer. I also have a Earthquaker Devices Hummingbird, which does the fast, square wave choppy thing with no volume drop perfectly.

I’ve got one of those Behringer clones of a PN-2. Still waiting patiently for a PN-2w to come out

My MD-200 and SL-2 both have tremolo modes as well.

ah Yes, top choices there!

I prefer the bigger boxed Dunlop, super solid, great variety of tones, easy to tweak on the fly. Earthquaker is a litle classic its in own right these days, Spaceman 3 in a box!

Yeah, the Dunlop is big. Not for those saving real estate! It resides on the Big Board, built in the mid to late 90s when I didn't mind hauling around massive pedals on a big, heavy board. An MXR is relatively 'micro' haha.


It also does the fast, square wave thing without losing volume. It's been my benchmark for trem pedals ever since.

That board!

Ah hence the handle "Bigtone"

Monster acreage!

I forgot, I have another kind of tremolo pedal. The Acid Fuzz Repeater. (Vox Repeat Percussion clone) lt's pretty unique and cool.

Cool! There was a clone by Seppuku FX as well, but I have never had one.

Ooh yes very cool indeed, in the "Repeater" family.

As used by The Black Angels.

I also recall I had the Coopersound Repeater too once, that "clack-clack" repeat percussion vibe to a T!
