What's your favourite BOSS DD pedal?

@mentoneman Год назад

dd-2 and dd-500 owner here-bookends of the boss delay pedal eras. 2 is a legend; classic, simple and works great in the loop of my mark III. 500 is NASA-does a nice 2 emulation and killer sde-3000 em as well!

@bananabourbonaenima Год назад

DD-20! I've got mine modded, so it has three buttons (on / memory / taptempo)

@christopherwoods6 Год назад

DD-5, more stereo fx than the others and tap tempo.

@BaconFire Год назад

I bought this pedal you just reviewed shortly after it released. I spent a lot of time with it creating all kinds of inspiring landscapes. It really took me places and I was so blessed to have this pedal. I used it in punk bands, rock bands and even in a drum machined Goth band playing bass. Its endless possibilties make it age well in my eyes. Thanks for reviewing this properly.

@TheloniusJ Год назад

I still have my original I bought second hand back in 1988 or so. It has always been incredibly usable.

@marksguitars5617 Год назад

very cool, great demo, I've had one on my board for more than 30 years!

@LeonTodd Год назад

I can see why!

@artemivasyuk1699 Год назад

Leon is doing amazing sthings to show us stuff. This time he had grown third arm to show the hold function 😊

@LeonTodd Год назад

Anything for the fans!

@grantlazenby8192 Год назад

My go to delay has been my DD-7 for the last 14 years or so. Really great sounding pedal! In my opinion Boss still make the best delay sounds on the market.

@hoosierdaddy2308 Год назад

I love it that you started with quote "Absolute filth".. 🤣 Been listening in headphones lately and although they drive me crazy, man the stereo sounds are just amazing! You sound better than ever sir! Every time you play the strat with the laces I think of Lynard Skynards newer guitarists who is amazing! Always good stuff with this channel! Always sir! Be well my friend! 🤟👍👍🤟

@LeonTodd Год назад

Gotta start with the good stuff :D

@murfmurphy6212 Год назад

Currently, the RE-2. Love the DD2 as well - a DSD-2 or 3 will get you there as well and you can still find them for cheap.

@jstephenrussell6443 Год назад

I use the Boss DD7, it's a lot more versatile and you can get some real wicked sounding delays with it and if set it just right, you can get some strange space like sounds out of it! Sounding good as always! I love the chicken picken playing you were doing! 😀👍

@roscius6204 Год назад

So glad you finished with those mad sweeps. Back in the day that blew peoples minds 😂

@roscius6204 Год назад

It's crazy how many got it right pedals Boss has done. My 1st pedals were a DD2 CE2 OD1 PH1r and a CS3 bought with/in that silver molded plastic case with the PSM 5 switch. I later added the DD3 because I like the DD2 so much.

@nicholastotoro7721 Год назад

I still love that warble when you change the delay time on the fly LOL! I have the DD-3 I bought in the late 1980’s and it does the same. The “Hold” function can be used to get that Yngwie “spaceship” effect he gets with the Space Echo.

@LeonTodd Год назад

Love that sound so much

@AlexandreCriado Год назад

Wow, this doubling trick is awesome :O

@9277707 Год назад

This has been on every pedalboard for live gigging I've used since the '80s - The main reason is ( should be a well-known 'trick') : set the M delay range to @ 1 - 1/2ish repeats, adjust D time it to be the right tempo for Johnny Cash "Folsom Prison" , Level so it sounds right for that 'double-picking' sound - Now, with just turning the Range knob 1 turn to right ( 800ms range), there's a delay you can leave ON all the time pretty much ( except tight breaks, endings ) That's why I still use this DD2, it just works, sounds real, and EZ to set for a real time gig. Thanks for cool video 🙂

@LeonTodd Год назад

Incredible that they got it so right first time around!

@JoeyLevenson 8 месяцев назад

Ive had a few, now only one. Its my 2nd favorite delay. Sounds great still.

@CatDieselPwr Год назад

I traded an original blue label DD2, a beat up strat copy and a BOSS GT10 for a Line 6 Vetta II HD haha, still have that beast collecting dust. I liked the DD2 but really preferred my old ARIA AD10 over it by quite a bit. The Aria didn't steal the high end and to me actually made the high end really sweet. Great demo Leon, now I wish I kept the DD2 :P Also I think Eric Johnson used the DD2 and made it sought after years ago.

@LeonTodd Год назад

Aria AD10 hey...scurries to eBay

@kameel68 Год назад

The first pedal I ever bought was a Boss DD3. I think it just came out.

@oliverchapman51177 Год назад

Same and a Ts9

@cliftonwright7081 Год назад

Glorious! There is a percussive quality to the mids of the repeats and a wonderfully balanced and subtle grit that really sets these apart from other digital delay pedals. Most importantly, it’s a result of the hardware and not a simulation so there’s just a bum hair more musical unpredictability.

@LeonTodd Год назад

It's got a bit of mongrel in it!

@cwir88 Год назад

The only pedal which get me close to Boss DD-2 is Strymon DIG. I guess it's because they both have something in common with 80s rack delays - DIG reproduces it digitally, whereas DD-2 has SDE-3000 long chip inside.

@LeonTodd Год назад

Yeah Strymon modelled the Analog compander circuit in there which sounds great

@billyc6678 Год назад

One of my favorite Boss peddles. 🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽

@csgband Год назад

I love that delay, it is the second delay I bought so many years ago. The fist was a memory man. I used the DD2 on so many shows and recordings, it got destroyed at a rowdy gig. Could be time to get another. Thanks for this one. Can you tell more about that double neck I’ve been seeing ing the background lately?

@LeonTodd Год назад

2 stone cold classics right there!

@Kevin.Kelly. Год назад

How does this compare to the early dd-3?

@LeonTodd Год назад

AFAIK they're basically the same thing

@9277707 Год назад

I have both, and I've heard several times, very early DD3's ( Roland 'long chip') are the same, except in value. The way to tell is the power jack input should be real low, close to bottom of pedal - later DD3's they moved it up a smidge.

@wakjob961 Год назад

One of Josh Scott's favorites too.

@oliverchapman51177 Год назад

Had my DD3 since 95’

@jeremiahkeller8536 11 месяцев назад

Thanks for this great demo. Will a sleeveless shirt help me get close to the tone heard during the doubling effect? I suspect that this adds at least 24% shredability to the top.

@LeonTodd 11 месяцев назад

There's no way you'll get that much of a percentage boost without actually taking your shirt off

@jeremiahkeller8536 11 месяцев назад

@@LeonTodd shirt, pants, whatever it takes man for that tone! 😁

@kennbart Год назад

Sadly, my DD2 that I've had forever, just took a poop a few months ago, but it has to be my favorite BOSS pedal for sure.

@LeonTodd Год назад

Apparently there's a common problem where one of the pcb traces can be replaced by a wire. Might be worth reviving!

@kennbart Год назад

@Leon Todd Glad I didn't throw it away!! Thanks for the heads up LT! I'll look into that

@rockstarjazzcat Год назад

I have the original Digitech double format pedal from around that time. 1s delay with input/output knobs and dedicated hold pedal. Setting the input/output was confusing back then. Still is I guess. Everyone else seemed to have the DD. Cheers mate! Was that an E. cameo? Best, D

@fillo1971 Год назад

L'ho avuto come primo pedale effetti, nel lontano 1985, sono stato un imbecille a venderlo ed ancora mi ci mangio le mani. Assolutamente un grande delay, sonorità spettacolare.

@LeonTodd. Scusa Leon, Quale prezzo ho vinto?
