joegarcia Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Hi there, hopefully someone can help me with my confused ambience needs. Right, what I am ideally looking for is an 'all in one' delay and reverb option that isn't massive and is true stereo in and out. At the moment I have a Boss RE-20 Space Echo, EHX MMWH and a Marshall reflector on my board and I can just about get the sounds I need out of them. However the RE-20 isn't true stereo and the Marshall is mono in. I could probably sort it with re-routing and bypass loops but am looking for suggestions of single pedals that may have what I need. As well as these pedals above I've been through the Boss DD6, DD7, DD-20 and Akai Headrush. My favourite delay pedal ever is the Deluxe Memory Man (original analog one) so something that can get those kinda sounds in stereo would be ideal. I need to be able to have 'trails' after bypassing the unit. If the RE-20 had savable presets, longer reverb and was true stereo it would probably do. I reckon if the Eventide Timefactor had reverbs that would probably be ideal. Would rather stay in pedal form but guess I could go rack if pushed although my amps don't have fx loops. Budget can stretch to £200/£300 I guess if really needed as I can raise that by selling my Headrush, EHX MMWH and RE-20. Hopefully that all makes some sense...

Finbar Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Thought about the DL4? Or maybe even the M9. Stereo in/out, can be set with delay trails, or without and you could set up so much variation and so many combinations of reverb/delay/bit of modulation on the M9. Might be worth a shout.

joegarcia Posted January 14, 2010 Author Share Posted January 14, 2010 Tried the DL4, close but no cigar. Had the considered the M9 but want to avoid it if possible due to my snobbyness about fx modelling. Too big really as well and don't need all the other stuff it does.

absolutpepper Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 If you have that large a budget why not go for the Eventide Timefactor. Its simply amazing! Also on the other delay post I have added a reply which breaks down a few different delays if you have a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really looking for an all in one ambience solution.[/quote] You should be able to edit the delay to create a reverb effect whithout any difficulty. BTW if you can get beyond the modelling issue then the M9 is amazing for ambient sounds. I love mine and the verbs and delays are the best thing about it.

Finbar Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Yeah, if you can get to try one out, I would. It might not be perfect for you, for the reasons you stated, but it might just surprise you. And on the size thing - if you were considering a DL4 at one point, then the M9 has a very similar footprint. And if it has way more than you'll use, just don't use it There's more than enough delay/reverb in that thing to justify the space it takes up IMO.

rick-blood Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 (edited) Check out the Damage Control Timeline [url="http://damagecontrolusa.com/products/timeline/"]http://http://damagecontrolusa.com/products/timeline/[/url] I have searched long & hard for "the perfect" all in one delay/reverb pedal & for me this is it. From Epic Beautiful soundscapes to crazy sci-fi modulation & everything in between It's really warm sounding for a digital delay thanks to the dual 12AX7's The pedal can store 8 presets & is fully midi compatible so with a midi footswitch you have access to 1280 presets - Wowzer ! Do yourself a favour man - Check em out ! Edited January 22, 2010 by rick-blood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
