When I see colors like these, the first things that come to mind are emergency and pulic transportation vehicles, construction site signage, and low-budget storefronts in seedy neighborhoods - not expensive guitar pedals LOL.
To each, his own. There's no right or wrong - only opinions, and you know what they say about opinions.
For me, I really prefer putting big-ass pedals (like volume, expression, and wahs) off to the right side of the board, rather than taking up precious real estate on my boards.
Again - personal preference. Everyone's mileage varies.
Not really put off by the amperage needs. I stopped using wall wart power supplies (unless there was no other option available) when I started buying high-end pedalboard power supplies. Could probably get away with current-doubling two outputs on a DC7. I HATE wall warts!
But, for the limited pitch shifting needs I may have, I'd probably be more inclined to pair up a nice expression pedal with a Pitch Fork, or something along those lines, taking up far less space. If was actually still gigging, I'd probably either upgrade the switch (not a fan of EHX switches on their older pedals), or carry a spare unit with me.
Maybe my opinion only; but for regular heavy use of a harmonizing feature, it needs a dedicated high quality, backlit display, for ease of use - not cheesy little LEDs. Programmable presets would help immensely, as well. I'd gladly pay a few hundred bucks more for those additional features, if I had to.
At least it's true bypass and it comes with the power supply (for those who need it).
