Not a Signal Shredder, in a good way
The name makes it sound like it will be extreme… the green color makes it seem like another TS clone or derivative. It isn’t really either. I find this to be a hugely versatile boost/od/distortion. The second position gives a full open sound while 1 and 3 give different levels of compression and slightly different behavior to the tone knob. I was able to match tones w my Tumnus. And stacked with another boost, it makes a nice harmonic distortion or fuzz. This knocked the Wampler Pantheon and Rats Bane off my board. Realty great pedal. 3 knobs means a simple guy like me can remember how to get the sounds he likes, as he cycles through different options.

Great pedal for a great price
This is one of the better ones out there. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a tube screamer type of pedal overdrive/distortion. It's cheap and sounds awesome. There is a noticable jump in volume when using the little switch and setting it in the middle position, but that it not something you would do while playing anyway. Highly recommended. I use it on guitar and bass. Bought it for my bass pedalboard but I am finding it hard to not plug my guitar into it when playing guitar.

Nice low/mid gain overdrive
I use this overdrive mostly for low/mid gain rhythms. I love it. It sounds full and alive with tube amps. There are 3 mods but my favorite is the 3rd one. EQ has a great room, and this pedal is loud. You can get noise from it after the volume turned to half with high gains, but it is normal with this pedal.
Just a remark, when you change the mod from mod 1 or 2 to mod 3, volume drops, I checked it and is not a defect. It is coming from product itself. But changing mods in the middle of the song is not a thing you would do in live situation, so it is fine.
I saw some comparisons with TS9 but I think two pedals are very different. I have used them both. They are both great and I can't say one of them is better, but for my personal taste, I liked Plumes more :)

One of the best tube screamer types out there
The sound is clear and natural. There is little bit of that familiar mid hump in there, but the tone shaping options allow Plumes to be used as a more "transparent" drive. The three modes offer great versatility for "always on" use, boosting, overdrive and even relatively heavy (for a tube screamer type pedal) fuzzy drive tones.
Musical and touch sensitive overdrive suitable for any pedalboard. Highly recommended!

wow,just wow
One of the best if not the best modern overdrive pedal that can finally put the old green box on the shelf. Super clean clarity and boost that sends the tubes to heaven.
Great for rock,blues and even to boost dirty amps to reach aggressive and heavy riffing madness.
Highly recommend

Too much hype
It's a fine pedal at best. Doesn't deserve the praise it gets imo. It sounds more like an OCD than a TS-styled pedal and it's quite harsh. It's pretty versatile though. Might be a good choice for a dark sounding guitar and amp, but definitely not my cup of tea.

Amazing
This pedal sounds amazing. The 3 modes are really useful. you can use it as a clean boost or some kind of a marshall gain structure.

Very good overdrive pedal
Very big fan. I tend to use as more of a clean boosting overdrive. Lots of options with the pedal, from the clean boost I use through to a heavier tone. Easy to use, all round great pedal for any board.

Ground Shaker
I’ve used this for my bass guitar and the 3 different settings are excellent. Setting 1 has a bit of compression which is handy for live bass. Used mainly on moog analog synth and dreadbox Medusa and would use mainly setting 1 because analog synths signals going into mixer can be hot so the compression tames the signal. I get a nice subtle drive. Well made. Knobs turn nicely. It’s a good brand. It’s a bit lite and can move about sometimes so maybe think about rubber pads, velcro or maybe pedal board
