Your Favorite Delay!

Roland SDE 3000

This!!!

 

[thiswaythatway]

Right now I like this one a lot.

Roland SDE 3000

This!!!

How many taps does the Roland have?

My MXR Carbon Copy is the one pedal i've never considered switching out or letting go. Just a really simple & musical analog delay.

Ive had a "few", strymons, boss, dls, earthquakers, mxr etc

Eventide H9 MAX. If your patient you can get a used one for the price of a single Strymon big pedal and for me it does what all 3 of them do and then some and it does it all very very well.

Source audio nemesis for me. Small footprint, a tonne of different sounds, midi control and an editor which gives even more possibilities!!

Plus one on this.

The Nemesis has such an organic, deep, lucious delay tone and feel. It is the best i have tried. Even when turning the time knob while playing a note, you can here the organicness!!!!! Lol

Awesome pedal.

Lexicon PCM41

 

[ChurchHill]

I was wondering when someone would mention a PCM41 or PCM42. I don't have one, but they're certainly one of the best ever made.

Glad to see the Roland SDEs get some love, too. Another great delay!

And the Eventide H9 and TimeFactor. Never heard an Eventide I didn't like (unless it wasn't working or wasn't plugged in... ).

 

[Exo-metal]

Loooove the Chandler SDE. Wish I still had it.

I'm looking for another one myself

 

[paulyc]

In no particular order... PCM 41, PCM 70, PCM 80, Lexicon MPX 1 & G2, Eventide H3500, SDE 1000, 3000, Korg SDD 2500, MXR 1500 digital, Boss DD3,5,7, old analog pedals (MXR & Ibanez), Echoplex, Roland Space Echo

 

[Hamer95USA]

My favorite delay is the KORG DL8000R. Yeah, it’s a rack piece, but the delays sound incredible...right up there with the TC 2240.

-Rack
plenty of units WITH character and tweaking possibilities!
Pure delays: PCM42, TC2290, BEL delays in general, DelatLab delays in general and love the Korg SDD-1200.

DSP based delays: Lexicon PCMs and MPXx, M300 (fantastic delay algorithms!), PrimeTime I/II/III (you don't know delays if you haven't listened to them)
EVENTIDE H3_series/DSP4_7_series/Eclipse/Orville/H8000... character and anything else beyond you can imagine.
Korg DL8000R is a fantastic unit too!

-Pedals
these guys have no character as hardware is very poorly designed. So the magic needs to be poured with DSP techniques.
Strymon TimeLine has plenty of extra processing stages to make those delays more appealing and interesting, in a quite unique way.

It's Italoop and he's back from the dead! Good to see you back, mio amico. I don't see you over at The Gear Page website much any more. I got banned over there for a week due to mentioning politics in one of my posts.

F..K 'em!

That's too bad that you're mad at them. It's a shame that some of the most knowledgeable people on TGP have either been chased off by amateur forum members who are trolls/argue/flame or have gotten kicked out by the admins/mods. The other people in the TGP Rack forum looked up to you for advice and information. It's kind of funny that you ridiculed some of the newbie forum members for trying to be a know it all when they don't have the knowledge/experience like you do. I found your information/advice helpful when I first got to know you on the defunct HRI website and was influential in the purchase of my Korg DL8000R. Hopefully, you'll be able to share your knowledge/experience here with this forum.

Yeah, HRI... (R.I.P.). Between that and the Eventide forum, I learned almost everything I know from Italo, about tweaking effects algorithms, about how everything relates, about how it all actually works. I've never known anyone who has more direct knowledge than Italo when it comes to delays, reverbs, diffusion, glides, reverse shifters and probably tons of stuff I've never even scratched the surface on, but still really want to learn even more. I have the utmost respect for Italo and his work.

And yes, it really is a shame when, on any forum, the guys who really do have all the knowledge end up leaving for any number of B.S. reasons. I don't want to see any of that happening here (I know it has in the past and I still keep hoping those guys will come back at some point).

Just BTW, I do think things have improved here over the last year I've been an active member. I really appreciate that, too.

Thanks Italoop, some of those delays blew my mind! I don't know if I will ever get that in depth with editing and such soundscapes but damn, really cool.
