Members HeartfeltDawn Posted May 5, 2008 Members Share Posted May 5, 2008 I love the Psychedelay in Guitar Rig. It's so much fun. So help me decide what to do about getting some reverse delay into my life through an amp. So many options, not sure which one to go with so here's what I've been looking at and/or listening to: Pigtronix Echolution (sounds great but a lot of money) TC Nova Delay (I found TC gear to be quite clean, perhaps a bit too clean, if that makes sense. Still sounds good though) Boss GT8/GT10 - I think there's reverse delay on these. Vox Tonelab LE - definitely has reverse delay. Boss ME50 - haven't heard this but I think it's on there. Digitech RP500 - haven't heard the sound yet. Zoom g9.2tt - again, haven't heard the actual reverse yet. Further options and recommendations would be most welcome. Analogue, digital, pedal, rack, whatever, all that's important is the sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members archofmusic Posted May 5, 2008 Members Share Posted May 5, 2008 I've got the Behringer EM600 Echo Machine in the mail. I'll let you know how good the reverse delay is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faldoe Posted May 5, 2008 Members Share Posted May 5, 2008 Danelectro Talk Back DR-1, very nice. The reverse on my DD-7 is pretty cool but not as good as the DR-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bleepedybloops Posted May 5, 2008 Members Share Posted May 5, 2008 I feel that need one:D Might pick up that Behringer Echo Park clone or maybe something cooler but more expensive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NetStar Posted May 5, 2008 Members Share Posted May 5, 2008 Echo Park reverse is "stronger" sounding than my DD-6But I'm still using my DD-6 for reverse as the EP is better for tap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Astatine Posted May 5, 2008 Members Share Posted May 5, 2008 The best reverse delay I've tried has been the Stereo Memory Man - the key is the decay control - it allows you to mush up the repeats to taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bvester Posted May 5, 2008 Members Share Posted May 5, 2008 I've never been quite satisifed by the reverse delays I've tried, including the DL4, SMMH, and Nova. The nova comes close, I think I can tweak it some more to my liking. I wouldn't mind trying the danelectro, but I really want to see a higher quality reverse only delay pedal with more options than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members archofmusic Posted May 5, 2008 Members Share Posted May 5, 2008 How does Behringer get away with these clones....?? Because it is completely legal. LCD TVs, Camcorders, VCRs, DVDs, Computers are all cloned and copied after their patents run out. It's called competition and it drives prices down. It's how we continue to evolve technologically as a society. What would the world be like if Sony was the only company able to make flat panel LCD TV's? Those things cost $10K when they first came out 10 years ago. What's stopping them from continuing to charge that except for competition? Why would the television market continue to evolve if it didn't have to to survive? Trusts, Monopolies, these are things that are against the free market economy and to a certain extent, destroy human evolution. If you really want to be technical, Behringer uses different (cheaper) components in their pedals. They don't look like the other pedals from the outside either. To a certain extent, they too are an original design, be it "Value Engineered" to make it affordable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members archofmusic Posted May 5, 2008 Members Share Posted May 5, 2008 So I should just clone a bunch of stuff and sell it.... It makes the world a better place. Why, because you gain knowledge through the process of reverse engineering. I am pro-anything that makes people smarter as inevitably, it makes the world a better place. All science is based on other people's work. Ever read a book? A society is only as great as the work it has created and made available to the masses. Who knows, using your basic knowledge of circuitry you may end up solving the world's energy problems. Or, more likely, just end up making a nice clean boost. But maybe, just maybe, along the way you gain the understanding of how your "clean boost" is "affecting" the electrons being oscillated by the guitar strings. And maybe, just maybe, that leads to something else. Was Ben Affleck the bad guy in "Paycheck?" No, it was the evil corporation who sought to keep the technology all to themselves and use it for their own profit, even if it meant destroying the world in doing so. Ben Affleck was the man because he could reverse engineer anything. Don't let people bully you into thinking cloning is wrong. We wouldn't be here today if the caveman didn't learn how to make fire from one another. Behind those steel skyscrapers there is 10,000 years of human evolution that has been tightly packed inside of a few books. Am I a copy cat for reading them or using tried and true methods of structural design? Sure I'll put my twist on it, but I didn't invent the truss, or the space frame for that matter. Do I need to get Buckminster Fuller's permission to use the space frame? The man is dead. To a certain extent, once it's out there, it's out there. And there is nothing stopping anyone for reading or looking and learning from it. What would the world be like if the libraries were made available only to the elite? What if I told you you were not allowed to read that book? What if you weren't able read that book? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members archofmusic Posted May 6, 2008 Members Share Posted May 6, 2008 Dude, Ben Affleck is soooo Awesome. Are you saying he is not! Are we going to have to fist fight over the awesomeness that is Ben Affleck. Ben Affleck should be in more Awesome Blockbuster Hollywood movies, because he is sooooo Awesome. He's the most awesomest actor in Hollywoodland! Saving Private Ryan For Reals, Ya'll! Hell's Yea!' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members WorkingClassDan Posted May 6, 2008 Members Share Posted May 6, 2008 The Nova Delay does a cool kinda tapey reverse. I've been using and loving the Time Factor for reverse lately. I used both for reverse delay on my new album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members gambit Posted May 6, 2008 Members Share Posted May 6, 2008 the dano back talk is good. better than the DD-20/echo park/echohead/DL-4 stuff.. its just not so much a delay.. more of a reverse pedal. the danelectro wasabi delay (big one with tap tmepo) has a reverse mode which is highly under-rated aswell. the tempo and high-cut knob continue to work in reverse mode. very handy, and not seen much in other reverse delays. probably cheap as chips on ebay too.
