Honestly, really enjoy the pedal. Super affordable and super versatile. Thanks

The Dinner Alpha fx device really enhances my Poly 61. So many different options. I plan on using it with my guitars as well. Easy to tote.

I’m a harmonica player and regularly use the combination of delay, reverb and chorus. I’ve looked for a combination of those three into one pedal for years and was pleased to see this one. It’s a great price point and works beautifully with a harmonica. It’s exactly what I had been looking for and I’m very satisfied.
Thank you!

I purchased the Alpha FX on the strength of the reviews and my own experience with my Alpha Cruncher (that I have had for over a year). The Alpha FX os excellent and really brings everything one might want for a straight stick amp. Works well in the FX loop or direct to the front of an amp. This is a great buy for someone just wanting to dabble in pedals or constrained by space/$$s. I have a couple of dozen pedals, and purchased the Alpha FX to support one particular amp in my practice space. I set the unit on the top of the amp and connect up with a couple of patch cords. Good to go. A plus is the power wart, so all one really needs to get going is a single patch cord if going to the input side of the amp. Highly recommended.

Great pedal. As advertised. Rugged, compact and a perfect addition to your effects loop while running your amp input effects board tuner, wah, boost, pitch, etc.

I bought this to have a compact effect unit that would fit in my steel guitar seat. Works perfect and sounds great.

Nice pedal works well; great price

This is a good multi functional effect pedal. Well constructed and great sound. I liked it so much I bought two! One for my home studio and one to take to rehearsal and gigs. And for the price nothing else come close!

This pedal gives you lots of bang for the buck. All three effects (reverbs, delays and modulation) have enough shaping options to make using it a breeze. Though I got it for my guitar, it also responded equally well, if not better for my fiddle.
the only drawback, which is also a plus, is the size. It takes the place of 3 separate pedals (great) but is so small that the control buttons are a bit close together. All in all, it's a dandy!

Great sounds, versatile and durable. I have been told that I "stomp" pretty hard on my pedals so I am always concerned about durability when purchasing a new one. I'm not worried one bit with my alpha fx. I've been jumping on the thing and so far not an issue and I don't foresee any in the near future. It has eliminated the need for a bunch of pedals and potential problems in the chain. The sounds I have been able to get out of it are amazing and exactly what I wanted. It is very user friendly. I didn't have to read instructions or cycle through 100 different settings and options. Pretty much plug and play. Price is right, sound is right, construction is right, everything about it is right. I will be purchasing more Donner products in the future. Thank you Donner! Rock on

I play regularly..an am 60yr old...These are the first all in one pedals. That I can use an show all my friends an students....BEST PEDAL EVER
Mr J.
Great for home use, useable sounds, not really practical for live work as you need to switch effect at the front of the pedal. But still very well constructed

I bought this to use with my saxophone and it works perfectly. Am loving it so far.

Despite it's convenient compact housing, the reliability and sound quality are lacking. I experienced several problems:
1. Reverb LED doesn't activate when the footswitch is pressed. The LED lit the first time I tried it. Within 3 minutes of use, it stopped glowing. It sometimes flickers erradically.
2. Reverb knob settings do not seem to be retained from one use to the next. They don't seem to be stored in memory.
3. Modulation effect needs a Tone and/or Level control, because when I use Alpha FX's Chorus effect with the pedal in my amp's effects loop, distorted tones lose all treble frequencies, producing a muddy sound with poor note definition. I have not experienced that with any other chorus effect. The modulation effect only sounds good using my amp's clean channel.
I have sent two videos of the defective pedal to Donner in an attempt to have my purchase refunded. I'm disappointed that I will lose money on return shipping costs to China.

I received the alpha FX guitar effects unit a few days ago and I have not stopped playing with it.
Sounds very good . It is well made and very inexpensive, also considering that you get 3 effects pedals in one unit.
I will be using this at home and in a professional recording studio in NYC.
Thank you so much Donner for the awesome equipment, quick delivery and wonderful customer service.
Andrew G.
I liked ordering directly from the company instead of going through Amazon or Musician's Friend. The pedal was inexpensive and works great.

Nice pedalboard. I'm not a great pedal user (wah and drive so far) but started a band and needed something to make my sound a bit more "complete". This affordable effect chain is the only thing I need to have resources for almost every situation. The sounds are in my opinion very good for the price. Of course is all digital technology so don't even think of repairing it if something blows. Overall, I'm happy with the purchase and would buy it again. Just two things that I would improve, firstly I'd add a blend knob for the modulation effects. And the most important, all the LEDs are same color, would be nice to be able to identify what is active with just a glaze a the pedalboard. I'll probably end desoldering the leds and changing them.

Sweet pedal. Nice and small. Soft buttons are nice. Great reverb sound. Cool.

The order came in two weeks. Packed well, a box of solid cardboard with a magnetic lock. Included was an adapter with a fairly long wire, instructions and a pair of stickers. Somewhat surprised by the size of the pedal, in the photo it looked more, in fact it was very small, just like a tiny one. Slightly inconvenient to twist the knobs of the regulators, as they are directly microscopic, your finger during the game will not adjust)). The effects themselves sound quite well, you can break straight space sound. For fans of drone and embient like me, it will be enough. The only thing that in the reverberator mode hall, the background is heard some digital grits, not too strong, but noticeable. Well, the price could be slightly lower, at the level of the rest of the pedals of this line, since the pedal is still digital, not analog.

Great idea Great Pedal
What a great idea! Combining three modulation effects into a single pedal - perfect for my amp's FX loop -- but giving individual footswitches for each effect! The perfect pedal for people like me, who don't like to fuss with cables, and don't like to spend hours programming multi-effects pedals either (which don't usually give individual control over the effects anyway). The quality of the effects are quite nice too (I just received mine, so I haven't done too much). The reverb is very usable. The analog echo is really rich and creamy, just the way it should be. I'm a bit less impressed by the mod section, but these aren't my favorite effects anyway. The Phase effect seems a bit underpowered (but maybe that's because I'm running through the fx loop).
Quality seems high - nice robust metal case. And the supplied power adapter is a nice addition. Also, the box it came in makes a perfect carrying case for it too.
The only thing this pedal is missing, really, is a tremolo option -- this should have been added to the mod section. Seems unfair to take a whole star off for that, so I won't. I give this 4.5 stars.
