Members rtparrott Posted November 29, 2012 Members Share Posted November 29, 2012 Pretty simple. What would be your preference? Assuming I could get either for roughly the same amount of cash. Obviously the feature set of the timeline would be light years ahead of the combination, but I think the other two would probably be as much as i'd need. As interesting and extensive as the Timeline demos are, it might be overkill for me. Whats the deal with the Midi on the Timeline. Could it have create any cool options or interactions with an M5? Is the looper on the timeline particularly good. I love the E1 looper, which is why im thinking about the upgrade. Finally i'm thinking the two together will hold their value longer than a Timeline, unless an E3 comes out anytime soon. In which case I could try and pick up a Timeline later on if the combo doesnt take. Or am I wrong about that too. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wjbratcher Posted November 29, 2012 Members Share Posted November 29, 2012 DMM all the way. If you had to choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 9520575 Posted November 29, 2012 Members Share Posted November 29, 2012 You said timeline seems like over kill and you wouldn't use/need all the modes. You don't need midi, and unsure about the looper. I feel like, you know what you want. Personally, I like reverse delay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I couldn't see that being as long a term delay solution as I'm planning here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members theroan Posted November 29, 2012 Members Share Posted November 29, 2012 As much as the DMM sounds great. It has a short delay time, takes up a lot of board space and doesn't have tap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rtparrott Posted November 29, 2012 Author Members Share Posted November 29, 2012 Definitely considerations. Although I'm more a fan of short delays. I don't know how people can do anything with much over three seconds if i'm honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 9520575 Posted November 29, 2012 Members Share Posted November 29, 2012 Hmmm i've had the smmwh and a timeline. Reverse on the timeline is better (IMHO). Reverse was my favorite mode. Plus you have the fx loop in the timeline. If money is no object and I can get a midi controller (like the dmc) for the timeline to use the looper. I'd go timeline If I'm not buying the timeline's extra controller for the looper, I'd go the smmwh. Edit: i mean the controller so I could access reverse play back and 1/2 speed on the timeline. The looper on the timeline isn't anything to write home about. How about a deluxe pitch pirate and a stereo jamman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members anjin-san Posted November 29, 2012 Members Share Posted November 29, 2012 Timeline is the onliest delay pedal one could ever need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rtparrott Posted November 29, 2012 Author Members Share Posted November 29, 2012 Originally Posted by Fender&EHX4ever "three seconds" is a really long delay Yes I agree. And its as long as the SMMH and E1 will go. But then I get the Hardwire a couple of months ago and it has 8 seconds. No idea what to do with that?

Members triviani Posted November 30, 2012 Members Share Posted November 30, 2012 I don't really know why is the E2 so popular, with 8, or 16 seconds of looping time it looks pretty useless to me, only useful to loop noise or boring blues. Not voting because I'd go for some other combos for about $450 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members seifukusha Posted November 30, 2012 Members Share Posted November 30, 2012 i never really looked at that timebender, thats a pretty slick delay. i wonder how the sound is though. alot of cool features there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
