LEKATO Multi Effects Pedal for Acoustic Guitar, with IR Loading 9 AMP Models, Acoustic Multi Effects Processor, Bluetooth 5.0,Recording, Built-in Battery

I purchased this to emulate my pedals that I rehearse with my band while at home . This little thing is actually quite impressive. I have nice pedals on my board and I would honestly say this chorus effect sounds better than my mxr . This multi effect has a few cab models ( pre mixed sounds ) , built in battery and even a rudimentary tuner that works but is definitely not perfect. The build quality seems decent and the pedal is in an aluminum case. This little thing is a lot of fun for 40$ Those were some of the pros now for the cons . The power is kind of annoying as it's not powered off a pedal board adapter or even a 9 volt it's a USB cable and power block . The included instructions are all but worthless , I did find a YouTube video of the same device just different name and it was the same

Sounds great, love the physical knobs. There’s a little learning curve to get to the physical setup, vice preset or edit, but once you’re past that it’s all fun. I can’t get the Bluetooth to stay connected to my PC, but for $35 and killer tone I’m good with that. Might not be an issue with the pedal at all anyway. Feels like a good, solid quality item. Haven’t loaded an IR yet, but I was able to get all kinds of tones from mixing and matching the preinstalled cabs and the preamp types and dialing in volume and tone knobs. It’s very reactive to any changes and the way you play. I felt so anyway. Cheers.

So I bought this unit (Cube Baby AC for acoustic guitar) in 2024 and proceeded to misplace the owner's manual, which is essential for the learning curve of the basics of this pedal. So it kind of sat in the "pedals I'm not currently using" bin for a good deal. I found the owner's manual again and promptly scanned it into a PDF so I can always find it on my computer. I broke it back out yesterday with intention of flattening out the learning curve a little, loaded some 3Sigma IRs into it, figured out how to go into Live Mode to tweak the sound, and then save it as a preset. Took it to church with my acoustic-electric classical, plugged into the PA, auditioned the IRs I loaded, chose the one that sounded best by itself, tweaked the EQ, added reverb, saved the preset, and it sounded really, really doggone good. Through the PA, it sounded every bit as good as more expensive units to my ear. Now that I know how to use it, this baby is staying in the gig bag when it's not on the charger. It's 100% now my backup pedal board. Under fifty bucks, doesn't need a power supply, and takes up practically no room in the gig bag - it's a keeper. I'm going to give it four stars. I didn't like what the compressor did to the sound of this particular guitar, and the reverb could be more lush and spacious, but like the other effects (delay, chorus, tremolo) falls into the "good enough but could be better" category. However the EQ is very effective and having anti-feedback control on a unit this small and inexpensive is a great bonus.

On my list of things to get, since wife says no more guitars.. lol. So I preform on small stages, as in like 4 feet deep, and a with a full compliment of other instruments i.e. full drum set, two guitarists two vocals, keys, etc. It leaves very little room for a whole pedal board setup with the things this little beast has. I've used it with both an electric guitar as well as an electric bass. Little tweaks in the live setting to get a decent sound for the bass as this wasn't setup for the lower frequency of the bass. None the less, after the tweaks, it sound good. The two stages don't have much room for amps so this is perfect. Key take aways, presets are great buy may not be what your looking for in a specific setting. So go with the live setting and adjust from there. Be aware with the "amp" (tone) know, once you get past the clean channels, it gets very loud quickly. Others are, pay attention when swapping through the a, b, c, foot switches during a set, if you hit two of them just right, it will knock you out of live mode and back into preset modes. Additionally, if you've not pressed any foot switch for a little while (about 20 mins) it will automatically revert back to the presets and just a simple stopping on the b, c, switches brings you right back to the live mode. So recap, portable, sturdy, rechargeable, lightweight, great for small stage setups where you can go into a D.I. box, love how you can "home" jam anywhere with the headphone an tablet/phone/computer interface and jam alone, IR settings are Adjustable through software that's free and readily available. Overall, excellent work. May get one specific for a bass, but this little thing is doing the job nicely for now. UPDATE: 12.12.2023 Ok, so going over questions from others, and thinking it over, I tried and idea. Some users don't have the ability for a 3.5mm headphone jack to use as in input/output. They thought about this when they engineered it. The Bluetooth function can be used for playing tracks. Meaning, since up the cube baby to phone/tablet Bluetooth, connect the 1/4" output to the amp of ur choice, on ur phone/tablet select what you want to play, (YouTube backing tracks etc.) My set up is: cube baby (guitar) synced via Bluetooth for playing backing track output (1/4" instrument cord) to amp, along with cube baby (bass) 1/4" cord out from bass guitar into cube baby (bass) and out of cube baby into amp and able to adjust accordingly. Thought I had to 3.5mm out of laptop/phone/tablet via USB cord into cube baby then out to amp. It will work that way, but the Bluetooth option means I'm not restricted by way shorter 3.5mm cords.

So far I really like this pedal. It’s nothing fancy, but it does what I need and is fun. As others have said, read the manual, it’s not long but there are a lot of features and it can get confusing until you figure it out. I bought this for a unique purpose. I have a pedal board for my guitar and have it set up the way I like for indoor playing. This was not for that. It was for portable playing. I enjoy playing on the porch now and then and I have a very cool little cigar box amplifier with a 3” speaker that I use to plink around outside. I was looking for a multi-effect pedal that was not too expensive that would get me from options from overdrive to distortion with some chorus/ reverb without having to lug a bunch of pedals around or a big, high dollar multi-effect unit. This works awesome. I have to be careful on volume because it doesn’t take much to crackle the 3” speaker. But for the purpose, it is awesome and works better than I imagined. I knew I wouldn’t be able to make all tones work with the speaker (some are too much for the speaker, but that is no fault of the pedal) but this pedal gives you tons of options and adjustment. Controls are logical once you figure them out (doesn’t take long). Very fun, wanted a cheap option that was very portable. I grab my guitar, cigar box amp, cables and put this unit in my pocket. Done. Also like visuals with colors to reinforce which knobs go with which functions/buttons. Neat unit.

Noisy AF! I would never use this for a live performance. I wanted it has a silent headphone amp that I could use to practice and not disturb my family. I had a difficult time finding a clean, good sound. Whenever I engage the Comp - EQ button, I get overdriven and the phaser is engaged. I read the manual. That is NOT how it's supposed to work. I was also unable to use both the phone in Bluetooth mode and Bluetooth headphones. And from what I read you should be able to use both at the same time. The volume has to be set at max in order to adequately hear the source material coming from the phone. It is serviceable, barely, for what I want to do, But given the rating, I was hoping for significantly better.

Huge bang for your buck on this one. Really good tones that you can tweak and save as presets. Excellent Bluetooth connectivity. Line out and headphone out. The IR selection is great, plenty of low-end crunch. Fits in a big pocket, I can boogie tether-free with headphones on. Sturdy build, feels solid, much better than the crappy headphone bass amps out there. I paired this purchase with some new coated strings, and now my cheap p-bass roars. A very practical and affordable alternative to a real amp. Having only three preset positions available is the only downer.

I've only had it a day, so I can't speak about long term durability. However, for 40$ it's does a lot. I wanted an IR loader that could run off 9v, then is saw this which has an IR, it's own battery, reverb, delay, phaser, chorus and 8 amp models for less than any other IR pedal I could find. The amp models are ok, not great, but it's hard to get a good sound with only gain and one tone. You can find a decent clean or low gain sound and when you put a distortion, eq, overdrive in front it can sound really good or you can just switch it off and use the other effects. The chorus/phaser are very basic, but decent and share a knob. I'd never use either effect enough to even buy a chorus or phaser so it's enough for me. The delay is very good and the IR's are easy to swap with the app.... on windows 10, it wouldn't work on 11, didn't bother trying iOS, or Android. Probably my favorite feature is the rechargeable battery, so I can have delay, chorus/phaser, and reverb in the effects loop without needing a 9v or separate ac adapter. That alone is worth the cost.

No hace mucho cambio

I wanted this for my ukulele to give me more sounds but it is far too small to be of any practical use. I returned it.

This is a good product while using portable,

Tem bons IRs de fábrica, efeitos são bonitos e claros. Gostei do compressor, usando em nível 1 e 2. O afinador respondeu muito fiel, as cordas de um modelo Jazz Bazz 4 cordas.
