... should i get one?
I'm in the market for a versatile tremolo, but nothing as crazy as 4ms' Tremulous Lune. I'm looking for a trem that can do super fast (for ring-modish tones). The only other one I've come across that sparked my interest is the LAL Riplet, which is no longer made.

Re: EHX Pulsar...
Another one you may want to think about that I've heard people rave about is the Catalinbread Semaphore. That one can go very fast, almost to ring-mod territory

Re: EHX Pulsar...
Judging by the PGS demos the Pulsar should be what you're looking for.

The Semaphore does seem nice, but it's out of my price range. I can only spend about $90.

Re: EHX Pulsar...
Pulsar is a pretty decent one...but i've been dying to get my hands on a semaphore
Have you checked out the earthquaker hummingbird? I heard a new revision (v3 I guess?) should be coming out with a few extra controls. Slightly over your price range but not as much as a semaphore. Can probably pick up one of the older used ones for cheaper. I'm waiting for one of these as well.

Re: EHX Pulsar...
It seems like a good bang for the buck,and versatile.I've been interested into it myself,but I decided to bite the bullet and get cusack tap-a-whirl,I think it will be here in a couple of days.
Another tremolo unit that caught my attention in terms of sound and versatility is a seymour duncan shape shifter,but I didn't check the price tag...

The Vibratrem isn't weird enough for me, but is a great pedal. The Vox looks delicious, but, yes out of my price range for now. And, I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with the size of it. I also like the simpler layout of the Pulsar.
