Members GuyaGuy Posted November 8, 2005 Members Share Posted November 8, 2005 Originally posted by Busta Is 4/4 the standard for delay time? I've never had a delay pedal where you could adjust that? I feel like this is a stupid question. I appreciate your help. there are no others to my knowledge. delay is timed according to milliseconds and is independent of time signature, wholenotes/quarters, etc. let's say your song is in 4/4 and the bar (and therefore wholenotes) lasts 1200ms.if you set yr delay to 1200ms then you're playing whole notes. if you set it to 400ms then you're playing quarters.the ability to change from quarter to whole note is there on the dd20 so you can quickly change from one to the other for 2 different delay times within one song--e.g. if you've tapped a tempo of 400ms as a quarter note and switch to whole notes you're now at 1200ms. my tip: keep it on quarter if you're tapping. otherwise you'll never get a hang of it.

Members Busta Posted November 8, 2005 Members Share Posted November 8, 2005 So really it's just a way of adjusting the delay time, as in milliseconds? So triplets would be a short delay time, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So triplets would be a short delay time, correct? triplets are kinda weird though because they divide a bar irregularly.but, basically, yes it's "just a way of adjusting the delay time"--the neat thing being that it's still in time with the song. but another neat thing is that you can tap the delay time in whole notes but the delay that comes out is in quarters. this is handy cuz precisely tapping quarters can be tricky on a short delay.so it offers as a lot of possibilities.

Members Vinnie Vintage Posted November 8, 2005 Members Share Posted November 8, 2005 You can get triplets on the T-Rex Replica ("subdivision" switch) and the DL-4 ("rhythmic" mode) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Busta Posted November 9, 2005 Members Share Posted November 9, 2005 So if I am tapping out quarters, should I tap the pedal 4 times or just twice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Hopeless Romantic Posted November 9, 2005 Members Share Posted November 9, 2005 Originally posted by Busta So if I am tapping out quarters, should I tap the pedal 4 times or just twice? Either, I find tapping 4 times is slightly more accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gr8fuldodd Posted November 21, 2005 Members Share Posted November 21, 2005 Is there a summary of settings someone's compiled? I like to experiment w/ it, but I don't want to pour throught these posts. Maybe a greatest hits of DD-20 settings? Lazy man blues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 12StringStrat Posted November 22, 2005 Members Share Posted November 22, 2005 Hey everyone, I just got my DD-20 on the weekend. I was wondering about the 2 head option in the Tape mode. Is second head a set time after the first? or can I adjust it? Btw, for the guy wanted In the Name Of Love settings, it's 418ms with modulation, 1 repeat, level to your tastes, and turn the depth down to about 30 to not have it sound fake.

Members turnip Posted November 22, 2005 Members Share Posted November 22, 2005 I used to think that I could get a Memory Man to complement my DD-3, and I'd be set an have almost all the colors of delay I'd need.Now, maybe I'm thinking: should I get a DD-20 and, maybe, and Arion SAD-1 to get the grainy analog gunk?SO many choices, so much to buy.

Members cqc6 Posted November 22, 2005 Members Share Posted November 22, 2005 Hey, Please excuse this if it was talked about already here- Does anyone use a volume pedal on the input of the DD-20 and set the output to full? So you can adjust the amount of deal with your foot? BTW- I love this delay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW- I love this delay! hm? not following you.i've tried running the wet output straight and the dry output at reduced volume for a swell/wash/wet sound.that's neat.or you can put a volume pedal after the wet output to control the level by foot.

Members cqc6 Posted November 22, 2005 Members Share Posted November 22, 2005 Hey, Im sorry- You use a volume pedal on the input. You set the (output) Level to full. You use the volume pedal to adjust how much delay signal is in the loop. My friend suggested this- he runs his delay like this. I havent tried it yet. I will soon. Even if you back all the way down on the volume pedal- the delay still trails. Works in parallel loops. My Engls have an adjustible loop. series to parallel.

Members StratOLounger Posted December 22, 2005 Members Share Posted December 22, 2005 StratOLounger is happy! StratOLounger is Loungin in the DD-20 Lounge.MF dropped the price back down to $179 recently, last few weeks I guess. Got GC to match it out the door. Why wouldn't they? I'll recoup most of it back by selling one of my dd-6's. This thing is a keeper. First thing I noticed was lower noise ratio on higher EFX Levels.Fits in the foot print of my two dd-6's......
