Members jonnygreentrees Posted August 2, 2012 Members Share Posted August 2, 2012 Got this yesterday, barely scratched the surface! Might post a review in a week if anyone is interested? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members english_bob Posted August 2, 2012 Members Share Posted August 2, 2012 Nice. I've had mine a little while and I really like it. I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on it once you've got your head round it. Love that first analog delay preset. I turned the feedback down a little, but it's really nice for self-indulgent home noodling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impressed so far, managed to get some weird Aphex Twin style glitchy sounds out of the Lo Fi delay as well. Will report back in a week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members The Villano Dude Posted August 2, 2012 Members Share Posted August 2, 2012 HNPD! DL4 killer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jonnygreentrees Posted August 2, 2012 Author Members Share Posted August 2, 2012 HNPD!DL4 killer? Not used a DL-4 for very long but so far judging by the sheer amount of sounds I would definitely say so! Initial impressions are that as well as the standard delays it does a good shimmer sound, a nice, ethereal combined delay and verb and SuperDelay, mode 7 style pitch shifted repeats as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members thom Posted August 2, 2012 Members Share Posted August 2, 2012 HNPD!! I've had this one on my radar since I first heard the rumors, been waiting for ever for a poor man's Superdelay...So here's my strategy: -Mod my DL-4 and sell it to the highest bidder. -Save some more cash and have a liiiiitlle patience untill I'll be able to buy a used delaylab. -Profit!

I've always thought of a SMMW/H as a poor man's SuperDelay for some reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members IRG Posted August 2, 2012 Members Share Posted August 2, 2012 This seems like a cool delay, I'd like to hear PGS or Prymaxe demo it. They made a good decision at this price point too. About it's biggest detraction's is its size, but many bought the DL4 but I wonder if today, size does make more difference. That's what she said anyways, lol.

Members Mind_Riot89 Posted August 2, 2012 Members Share Posted August 2, 2012 Nice, I've been thinking about one of these, too. Could you pretty please upload a demo of the pitch-shifted sounds? Looking for something to do that shimmer thang. Thanks, and HNPD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Messed around some more tonight and there's actually an early reflections setting that pretty much nails the MBV reverb sound (that's what Shields used right?) so that's another vote in its favour!

Members stratedge09 Posted August 4, 2012 Members Share Posted August 4, 2012 Does it have trails? I want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jonnygreentrees Posted August 4, 2012 Author Members Share Posted August 4, 2012 Yes it does have trails or it does not have trails depending on your preference. It can also trail between presets as well! I'll try and do a demo this week so if you want to hear something please add it to this thread! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members stratedge09 Posted August 6, 2012 Members Share Posted August 6, 2012 How easy is it to get dotted eight or other odd delay times? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thom Posted August 6, 2012 Members Share Posted August 6, 2012 F*ck, why did you have to bring up this thread again? I'm having enough trouble controling my GAS for this pedlol as it is:mad: Anyway, it's probably too late now, I think I just kinda sorta might have ordered me a delaylab:facepalm: Placed an ebay best offer bid thingy for a new one, offered slightly less than what a new B-stock delaylab would cost. So anyone else in Europe looking for one: 222euro at thomann. You're welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members captions87 Posted August 6, 2012 Members Share Posted August 6, 2012 How easy is it to get dotted eight or other odd delay times? Pretty easy to get time subdivisions, there's a button at the top labeled "sync". I believe if you hit that, you can then use the time knob, and it'll display the different divisions on the screen to choose from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mitre Posted August 7, 2012 Members Share Posted August 7, 2012 I'm running mine on a Supa Charger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members OnWingsOfLead Posted August 7, 2012 Members Share Posted August 7, 2012 Which output on the Supa Charger? Tried running mine on my Stage 5 board.....none of the DC outlets would run it for but a minute or so...then it would freak out and turn off. Running it with a 1Spot right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe if you hit that, you can then use the time knob, and it'll display the different divisions on the screen to choose from. This is correct. There are lots of subdivisions to choose from too, which is always good. In the parallel delay mode you can set different subdivisions for each delay line and in the multi-head tape mode and the rhythmic/multi-tap modes you have the sync function in addition to the different rhythm pattern options. Alternatively, you can turn the sync off on the parallel delays and set the second line independently of the first- set it to a slightly shorter delay time and you get a Steve Reich / Discipline-era King Crimson style effect where the repeats fall out of sync with each other. Haven't tried this in stereo yet, but I bet it makes you puke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I run mine off a 1Spot too with a bunch of other pedals and haven't had a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
