Analog output directly out (works even without power supply) effect out, input, inter-off on this is good.
Beautiful machine, it was the place comes with power supply, 55 roros go figure ...

I use it as delay, chorus is not bad and the vibrato is superb. I do not know if you can combine the effects.

About 550ms max delay, it is measurable in all registers, you can even push the much stronger global level at the entrance.

The highlight is the live release out, I use it to power a second time machine on a second amp, I have a stereo ping-pong hell!

UTILIZATION

It is very simple but complete trimming time delay is measurable (I can do my very accurate ping-pong).

For clicks engagement I do not really know what time it is at home.

I have a tandem (before amp input) for home stereo, and a third for the local loop on Ampeg GVT52-112 or bugera 1990.

It thus emerges in all situations.

SOUND QUALITY

I had the RE20 boss is ugly beside the vm1.
As analog delay I had the memory of toy eh, who seemed longer and more open sound. If an analog echo artec, too short and problematic in its connection.

I think it is a good delay, in that it is hot and not too clean, and guitar benefits does it suffer through it.
The time is just long enough to not be in trouble ...

Not seem to have sound like hiss or crackle residues, yet I put the volume behind.

This is very different from a digital delay, and not only in rehearsals.

OVERALL OPINION

It's been quite some time I use these devices, none raised the slightest concern. Must say that it comes with the power supply not cover a lot of potential damage.

On vm1 dedicated to the loop of the amp I put a tuner on the direct out, it's great practice as it is not its food (and the amp in standby does not cut the sound in the loop) .

Frankly I see no negatives, given the typical side effect and especially its ridiculous price.

Fun fact, the delays I use are the vm1 and small VD400 brand, I love their sound.
So my other critters are in the closet, and it makes a small package ...
