“The thing that matters with musical tools is whether they inspire you. With today’s tech, any pedal, synth, or plugin can generate every sound under the sun, so it’s not about what sounds a machine is capable of — it’s about which ones it leads you to. The Ripply Fall is one of those pedals where every setting sounds so good that you want to write your song around it, and there’s another pleasant surprise every time you twist a knob. It’s a real gem.” Damian Kulash
