There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
You have to remember that we are able to buy pedals in almost any color or size, with any mod, effect, etc(thanks to Amazon and these manufacturers), for what used to be the price of a couple of good studio patch cables.
There has been a shift in the way people buy and what they expect of things brought about by Amazon IMO. Expectations used to be much lower on inexpensive products but now a days, everyone is expecting a $25 product to be just as good as a $300 one. For the most part they kinda are. But that extra money goes along way for craftsmanship. And better materials. Not saying these materials are bad just that they can be better but it cost a lot more money.
I expect for the occasional item to be broken when it arrives or to have a part that might fail, because they're cranking out so many of these at these different companies they're not handmade one off's, so that's just part of it. On the same hand I've also purchased wvery expensive products that have arrived broken, DoA, or worse, destroyed in shipping. It happens it's part of the game and this is where a company can shine with their support team.
OK, enough of that on to the review. This is my first multi effects pedal of this type and from this company. And I have to say it is outstanding! The FX work perfectly, they all have massive range which enables you to dial in the exact sound or tone you want. None of the effects sound like they have poor or cheap electronics, nor do they have that "tinny" tone due to small guage wire.
The unit arrived packaged very nicely snug and in a very nice box. Instructions were well written and easy to understand and they explained each effects and what each dial did for its assigned effect. It also comes with its own power supply which is a huge bonus!!
I've added some pictures of each of the effects areas on the pedal as well as what it looks like attached to my paddleboard so you can get an idea of the scale of the box.
OK more on the FX. As I mentioned each of them works perfectly and not is there a massive range within each of the settings, but you can stack all of them, run them as singles by simply leaving the other two off(which by the way works amazingly well because its a true bypass unit so there is zero hum, or line noise of any kind when you don't have any effects enabled). Aside from the FX being amazing, robust, and sounding great... each of the first two switches is also a tap selector, all you do is simply hold down the switch with your foot for a few seconds and the green light will be going to blink. This way you know it's in tap mode and you can set the parameters with your toe while you're playing. Hold down the button for a few seconds again to turn off the tap setting. I'm not sure how to explain it in a review other than you just have to try it for yourself. I can't even say a "the effects are good for the money" because they're outstanding and has nothing to do with price. Except that I think personally, this multi effects board is a steal at the price that it's listed for. My final thoughts are, would you use this to play and record professionally in a studio environment? Maybe, you probably could, but there may be better units for that. Could you use it to gig live around town and mess around inside your house for practice? Absolutely!! Could you play in a local band and gig with it? I think so because so far, it's been just as good as any of my pedals that I've paid four or five times as much for. So as of right now, I'm blown away by this little guy and will be ordering a lot more from Donner as soon as possible.
P.S. Please excuse any typos you may find...it's late, I'm typing this on my phone, and I'm tired. :)

I was surprised at just how good the three different effects were. The distortion is rich and buttery, the delay clean and well-defined and the chorus (which I rarely use) nice and clear, though a little bit wimpy and artificial sounding compared to some dedicated units.
The real selling point of this pedal is its compactness and versatility. Takes up much less room than a pedal board with a bunch of Boss units (or whatever) stuck to it. Also, setup is significantly easier. Not all the included effects (or is it “affects,” I can never remember) are exactly studio quality, but they’re more than good enough for live shows, where audience noise and my fellow band members tend to mask the more refined tones anyway.
The only downside I can think of is this: if the pedal goes out during a performance, you lose *all* your effects (or affects) rather than just a single sound. That’s typical of any all-in-one unit, though. If I had the money, I’d probably buy a backup unit and carry in a gear box or something. But I’m a working musician, which means I’m broke most of the time. That being the case, and this pedal being remarkably cheap considering the quality of the thing, I’m happy with the purchase.
No on to the more detailed part of the review.
The distortion is a bit harsh for my typical style but it is decent. It doesn't get too muddy and overall it's easy to dial in a usable tone. I have my treble dialed almost all the way back on my Princeton Reverb with a Les Paul and still find it to be a bit trebly
The chorus is great. I find it to be rather subtle which I prefer. It comes out a bit more when the distortion is engaged. I find it doesn't have as much of the psycho chorus settings that some other pedals have but that's more extreme than I believe the normal user needs.
The delay is great. Fairly easy to use and sounds good.
Construction is solid and it comes with what seems to be an 8-10 foot power adapter. I'm not sure the exact length since my tape measure only goes to 6 feet. This may seem like a small detail but it is super convenient
I would like to see another option of this pedal with tap tempo delay and a tuner built in. I'd like for more of a Tube Screamer tone and a phaser instead of chorus but that's just because of the stuff I play.
Overall it's a great pedal for less than $70. Anyone should be able to buy this. It's a great value for anyone who wants a portable rig, needs a backup, or who just bought their first electric guitar and needs some effects on a budget.

La distorsión suena muy ochentera, buen delay y el chorus hace bien su trabajo!
This small package offers a lot: the unit is small, versatile, easy to use, comes with its own included power supply (most of guitar pedal don't include it) and very well built and sturdy (all metal construction and solid stomp switches). For the price, you get three pedals for almost the price of one, it is very hard to beat. Since you have three effects in one, you can eliminate some patch cables and it is very easy to carry for a gig.
The effects are very good and you can adjust them independently. The knobs are a little bit small but easy to turn because they added a rubber shell on them. Keep in mind that the Alpha Force 3 offers a Delay, a Chorus and Hi-Gain effect. The Hi-Gain effect is a very a heavy distortion suitable for metal music for example. Donner offers other multi-effects guitar pedals, if you want a more "british" distorsion (for rock music), you can check the Donner Alpha Cruncher 3 or if you are an acoustic player only, they offer the Donner Alpha Acoustic 3. These guitar pedals are very nice to discover and experiment new tones.
I'm always impressed by Donner products, they are always of a great quality and hard to beat for the price. If you are like me and you want the best bang for the buck, this product is for you!

The body and build is robust enough for gigging although it would need putting on a board. Overall its a nice pedal for the price especially. You wont get much more versatility from separates in the same price range than this.
I didn't actually NEED this 3-in-1 pedal, as I already have pro-level effects on my board and in various MFX units. But at the price, including a decent power supply, I couldn't resist it! It might not be targeted at professional players, but in a pinch, or if stage space is really limited, for the stuff I play I reckon I could get through a gig with just this item between guitar and amp. In short, I'm delighted!
