Members onyxrhino Posted March 23, 2012 Members Share Posted March 23, 2012 I keep buying these and then selling them because I don't end up using them as much as I thought I would. I'm on my third one now and I really want to make it work this time. I know there are people on here who love them. So, can you help me out? Post here the settings you dig on your DE7 or just what you like using it for (slapback? oscillation? etc?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members datratbastud Posted March 23, 2012 Members Share Posted March 23, 2012 In the exact same situation. It's one of those pedals (including the Digitech Whammy, Boss Reverbs, etc) that I absolutely love but end up swapping and re-acquiring constantly.

Members hugbot Posted March 23, 2012 Members Share Posted March 23, 2012 The oscilation is amazing but when i had it I realsed I dont use oscilation that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members triviani Posted March 23, 2012 Members Share Posted March 23, 2012 Is the oscillation controllable on these? I saw one for sale and thinking to try it. Did anyone used it on a feedback loop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw one for sale and thinking to try it.Did anyone used it on a feedback loop? not sure what you mean by "controllable", but the oscillation does change gradually with what you're playing into it (at least at the milder oscillating settings), if that answers your question. I haven't tried it in a feedback loop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members plaidbeer Posted March 23, 2012 Members Share Posted March 23, 2012 I've thought about selling it now that I use the M9 for nearly all of my delays, but I sort of like having an extra delay pedal and it sounds really good in echo mode. I use it for both slapback and longer delays. Not so much for the self-oscillation although that can be fun on occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Aaron SS Posted March 23, 2012 Members Share Posted March 23, 2012 Ive got one that im not currently using but plan on keeping, great pedal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 9520575 Posted March 23, 2012 Members Share Posted March 23, 2012 my first delay pedal. yum. I sold it just before joining here. it's pretty awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members onyxrhino Posted March 23, 2012 Author Members Share Posted March 23, 2012 So I played around with it for awhile during lunch. I'm finding I like using it best with the repeats set on just the edge of oscillation. Also, the oscillation seems to sound better with a clean sound. With alot of distortion it seems hard to find a good balance. Either the oscillation just sort of disappears into the background or it swallows everything up. Anyone with similar/dissimilar experiences? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jenesis Posted March 23, 2012 Members Share Posted March 23, 2012 I sold mine a while back, as I was only using it for that almost oscillating echo and can get much the same effect from my Montavillian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone with similar/dissimilar experiences? this is exactly how i use mine though i haven't had a hard time finding a balance when playing higher gain. it should be noted that though i play rather heavy music i don't use a {censored} ton of gain.

Members onyxrhino Posted March 23, 2012 Author Members Share Posted March 23, 2012 Lol. do you actually use yours with those settings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members delayed delay Posted March 23, 2012 Members Share Posted March 23, 2012 Absolutely LOVE mine for oscillation noise - phenomenal little pedal. I don't use it that much currently because the of the Timeline, but the DE7 still has a sound the TL can't replicate - the 2nd repeat of the DE7 on echo mode. Anybody else feel me on this?

Members echodeluxe Posted March 23, 2012 Members Share Posted March 23, 2012 Not my picture. I never use the delay side. Can't if I wanted to cuz the delay side doesn't work on mine. Came that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Reaganomics! Posted March 24, 2012 Members Share Posted March 24, 2012 It seems like this pedal gets bought, sold, bought again etc... the most of any pedal here. I don't get the point, it's so cheap you're not really losing that much by keeping it around just in case. I have one, and like it but then again I'm not a delay connoisseur by any means.

Saw one on GC's used gear site for $40 and they usually only charge $5 for shipping. So, about $50 altogether, including tax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members solewheelin Posted March 24, 2012 Members Share Posted March 24, 2012 I'm on my third one too. If I remember correctly, I think I traded my second one to you, onyxrhyno... Are there 2 versions? The older ones in the darker grey enclosure seemed to sound better. Has anyone else noticed this? Or was it my imagination? Also, if the delay mode doesn't work, (and you wanted it to) those little black switches can be fixed pretty easily. They are made pretty crappily though.

Members Taylor. Posted March 24, 2012 Members Share Posted March 24, 2012 Switch went out on mine, I need to bother somebody about fixing it. I liked it on echo mode/120-650 mode with the level slightly below noon and the repeats and time around 2:00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members echodeluxe Posted March 24, 2012 Members Share Posted March 24, 2012 {censored}ing guitar center!!!! Apparently it was returned when someone plugged a bass into it and blew it up. I tried to explain that a bass couldn't produce a signal large enough to damage a guitar pedal in vain lol{censored}. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil O'Keefe Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Didn't Ibanez discontinue them last year? I wonder if they'll come out with something to replace it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
