This is the last pedal on my main board. The EQD Aqueduct vibrato.

I feel like this is one of the most slept on pedals out there. It's a great vibrato and I think it's a comparable if not better alternative to the VB-2w. I think at this price point a lot of people end up getting the Walrus Audio Julia though. With the EQD you've got all the normal waveforms plus a random wave. The Env settings are really neat. You can set it to do whammy style dive bombs with the momentary switching too. Wata from Boris demonstrates it in an EQD video out there somewhere.

I primarily use this to turn any sound lo-fi. I had a ZVEX lo-fi junky but it's way too noisy for me. I have the Aqueduct set as you see with a slow triangle wave but sometimes I move it to the random waveform. I have it sitting between the Dispatch Master and the Habit. It make the DM sound a little more analog and adds more psychedelia to the Habit. It also goes great after a lower gain or biased fuzz tone to sound like you're playing through a broken cassette player or something.

Interesting, what guitarss you prefer the most with these kind of effect? I find single coils work best with vibratos while i prefer humbucker for chorus.. don’t know why

Yeah I use single coils mostly.
