Such a GREAT surprise! Had the pedal 'core' from getting the Otto Filter (auto wah) on clearance, then found this 'module' for FIVE BUCKS! I wasn't too impressed with the Otto, so I didn't expect much- MAN was I wrong! It's one of my favorites, out of the many delays I own/owned; it's usually a staple in my 2-3 delay setup, with the other 2 rotating. Great tones, functions- and 'behaviors'. Tape/analog really act like the real things- and not just their sounds, but like on response to rate/length adjustments, the warble-y lag as they "catch up" etc. love it.
Yeah, it looks good, and if you hold it, you'll see an incredible craftsmanship as well. It has a sound like late Prince used in his incredible version of Red House.
This is one of the best delay pedals out there if you ask me. The reverse tape mode alone is worth the price of admission IMO. For the price, this thing can't be beat. I use this + Skreddy Echo and it's awesome.
I still have my amazing Echo Park It's rich,trippy and inspiring. It's power hungry and needs its own powersupply, but that's no burden to bare in ratio to its usefulness
What are you playing at 5:08? Sounds very nice, love the chords you're working with from there till the end. This demo was what made me decide to get one of these pedals. Thanks!
I don't understand the Stereo connection vs Mono? Your other shootout vid with he DL 4, you have the echo plugged in stereo... but what does the stereo connect to?
Still scary good, this thing. AMAZING tape mode, the Analog modulation sounds just like my DMM and the digital slaps too. I bought an M5 to get a bunch of presets but unfortunately it doesn't sound like this.
I've been looking at reviews of this pedal and quite a few of them mention a loud hum when a power supply is plugged in. Yet yours seems to be powered with a supply and I cannot hear any buzzing noise (at least not one I would call "loud"). Is that rumor true? Is that ever an issue for you?
sometimes when people dont use isolated power outputs or when they daisy chain pedals together then you get feedback. its not something ive experienced or even something that i really understand, but its just something ive heard. something to do with the power sort of feedbacking through each pedal i think.
nope i haven't. actually, i saving up for getting the visual sound tap delay or mxr carbon copy. i do not need this much choices of types of delay. warm analog one is fine for me
Nope this pedal dosent have an expression pedal input, if you press the pedal lightly it will tap the tempo and when you press hard it turns the delay off.
I got one soon after I posted this question. It's an excellent delay. Just a little too much for what I was doing on bass tho. tracks well. The reverse setting is the most fun. But eventually I just went back to my DD3. If you can find one used for under 80$ I say grab it. Built like a Tank.
