Members CicadaSilence Posted July 25, 2009 Members Share Posted July 25, 2009 I love my RE-20. Really; I do. It's my go-to for 90% of my delay needs. However, I'm considering changing up my rig, and I'd like to have a delay that doesn't have an annoying preamp on at all times. What delays are out there that have these features: Tap TempoMultitap settingsExpression pedal compatibilityAnalog/Tape-ish sound What's out there?

Members rydia is hot Posted July 25, 2009 Members Share Posted July 25, 2009 the headrush doesn't have exp pedal capabilities, though, does it? i guess you could get one of those third hand things, but i've not read much about them that's positive.

Members falseswipe Posted July 25, 2009 Members Share Posted July 25, 2009 Headrush does have a great tape emulator. However, no expression pedal input. I can't think of anything but the DL4 that does right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm digging the Headrush idea, but I'm with you on the Third Hand. I could modify one of the head out jacks for an expression pedal, maybe.

I have a Timefactor, and basic delay tone is terrible, IMO. I like the pedal, and I use it for weird effects, but for "standard" delay usage, I think it's awful. The Timebender looks interesting. I wrote it off a Pitchfactor clone, but I'll look a little deeper into it's capabilities. The expression pedal is the feature I could probably do without, so maybe the TC would work, too.

Members theboywho Posted July 25, 2009 Members Share Posted July 25, 2009 I have my RE-20 in a bypass loop, but I do a lot with trailing repeats. The bypass looper kills that. I suppose I should have listed that in my criteria. You could get a looper that sends the direct signal through uneffected always, then when you turn it on it sends the signal to the RE-20, which is switched to wet signal only so the dry signal comes through clean.I tried that once, worked pretty well.

You know, I think I did something like that with a Digitech PDS pedal way back when. That's not a bad idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its also cool, as you can put an effect on the delays only, so have modulated delay, or fuzzed delay, which sounds great with oscillation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Let It Burn... Posted July 25, 2009 Members Share Posted July 25, 2009 check out the Marshall Echoplex. It has a great, one of a kind tape delay sound and can be found pretty cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wiklund87 Posted July 25, 2009 Members Share Posted July 25, 2009 check out the Marshall Echohead. It has a great, one of a kind tape delay sound and can be found pretty cheap.Fixed That the pedal I use for tape delay on my board.... I really want to try the TimeBender & the Headrush E2 though...
