Delay Pedal Reviews
« on: June 23, 2007, 12:34:03 AM »
Mga sirs and ma'ams, need help with deciding which delay pedal to get next. I'm thinking about getting a Line6 DL-4 or Echo Park, Digitech DigiDelay, or Boss DD-5 or DD-6. Kung meron pang iba, welcome to suggestions po ako.

Requirements po are:
Tap tempo - Sana external, kaso kung built-in lang... oh well
Reliability - Won't stop working til the day I sell it and GAS for another :-P
Versatility - Can go from Analog to Digital delay
Price - Hehe...

Thanks po :-D

Anyway, thanks for the info sir. Eventually, pag nagka-raise na ko sa trabaho :-D

ano ba price range mo? parang ang laki eh. hehe!

pero tama. ganda nang dd-20.

i have a DL-4 and an echo park. i'd choose the DL-4 in terms of sound and versatility. but it's HUGE and there are so many bad reviews of it breaking on the owner... which im pretty scared of.

yung echo park ok sya. pero dapat may sariling power supply... mine's for sale if you're interested.

chito, i have one of these and it is pretty nifty. i actually bought it from a Cannuck company, Axe and You Will Receive. The only other item I would love to have over the Memory Lane is a tape delay if it weren't so tempermental and huge. I've also got the TCs T-Rex replica and the TC is more rugged than the Memory Lane. Overall, both have a nice analog, organic sound to them that I really like.

WELCOME TO THE DARK SIDE OF THE FORCE! the force is strong with you, young one... :evil: :evil: :evil:

seriously, the higher-end delay pedals are really, really worth it. they're miles ahead of their standard DigiTech and BOSS counterparts. when i bought a Deluxe Memory Man last year, i thought that was the end of the line in my delay pedal GAS (out of all pedals, i love delays the most). but then i stumbled upon a T-Rex and a TC Electronic VD and when i tried them, i knew i had to buy one!

EJ setup ang goal mo diba? tira ka na ng Memory Lane kung ganun! tapos bili ka na rin ng mixer, Echoplex, etc. hehehe :)

Boss DD-20 na nga siguro yung pinaka-cost effective among your choices.

Then again, I sold mine almost unused and went on to buy a Korg AX3000G. Hehehehe.

pwede yan ah... officially in the market na ba yan?

wala.. just stomp on the bypass switch and hold it for 2 seconds to start tap tempo mode, then set your tempo by tapping two consecutive times then hold the bypass switch for 2 seconds again to save the new tempo setting.

Thanks po sa mga ideas. Keep 'em coming :-D
