The Keeley EH Verb o Trem Workstation is a dual effects pedal from Keeley that combines reverb and tremolo in one housing. It is the larger-chassis version of the Keeley EH Verb o Trem, built for players who want more flexibility in terms of reverb and tremolo, along with more control options in terms of sound shaping1.
What it does
The Workstation pairs two effects sections, reverb and modulation, each of which provides eight different sounds1. That is a step up from the compact EH Verb o Trem, which uses a toggle switch to provide three modes with different models and four potentiometers controlling the reverb and tremolo effect1. The Workstation's modulation department includes a Univibe and a Leslie model, and the pedal also offers a tap-tempo option1.
How it compares
Keeley produced the Verb o Trem in two versions: a standard-sized housing and this workstation version in a larger chassis1. If the compact pedal's three-mode toggle and four knobs cover what you need, it is the smaller option; the Workstation is the one to look at if you want even more flexibility in terms of reverb and tremolo, as gearnews put it when the pair were announced1.
"If you want even more flexibility in terms of reverb and tremolo, you might be tempted by the workstation version."
Players comparing it with Keeley's other reverb and tremolo combinations may also want to look at the Keeley Verb O Trem, the Keeley Zoma or the Keeley Hydra, and at the wider field of reverb pedals and tremolo pedals.
