In my current band, I swap between playing a late eighties BC Rich Warlock 6 string and a G&L L-1000 bass. The DOD sounds superb with either. No noise or hum at all with a good battery.
Reliability/Durability:
It's been a workhorse for years of gigs...Mine surrently is in need of a tweak here and there to make sure the input/output(s) are solid...but like I said...it's 17 years old.
I constantly use it onstage sans backup.
Ease of Use:
I've been using this pedal forever...like 16 or 17 years and it has given me consistant quality of tone its entire life.
It's very simple to configure and mostly intuitive although, as with any stompbox, changing configurations "in medias res" is quite tricky.

Overall Rating:
This pedal is heads and shoulders above most new digital samplers as far as tone is concerned. It does lack somewhat in that the sample feature is only 1-2 seconds...but if you are primarily using it for delay it is wonderful.
