Here's what T-Rex says about the Tremster:
The Tremster´s strength lies in the way the effect is modulated. In simple terms, it means that the waveform used to turn the volume up and down (creating the tremolo effect) is a bit special. Instead of a sinus wave or a triangular wave, the Tremster´s waveform is quite soft around the peaks, but otherwise relatively abrupt. This creates a very nonobtrusive effect, that melts in with your playing – even at maximum depth. It´s like it just breathes in a calm way, instead of sounding like your playing is hyperventilating, so you can use MORE tremolo without losing anything, much like tube tremolos on older amps.
Add to that a pulsating led for visual indication of the speed, true bypass and a mode switch for less/more throb and you have a really nice and simple box that does what it should do, does it in a very musical way and with no hassle. It's three knobs, all analog stuff, but the sound is what you pay for.
Truthfully, we are bringing back the Tremster due to years of comments on its sound “Hey, can I still get the old red one from you? I miss it ”. Well, yes you can.
