So we are here in the presence of an old analog delay of his store ...
The best part (besides the sound) is its unbeatable price, € 42 for a pedal of this caliber!

In terms of connectivity, we are in the very simple, an input jack, an output jack, an entry for a 9V transformer and location for a 9v battery (for info, never use the battery, because the pedal is going to eat within two hours of use!)

Manufacturing is of good quality, brushed aluminum body, sturdy switch, knobs upscale and germanium resistance to get the vintage sound!

Little more substantial, this pedal has a true bypass

UTILIZATION

The config is super simple, 3 knobs and a switch:

First knob: Blend, which allows + or - mix the effect with the sound of the guitar, basically it allows you to make the effect more or less discrete (the top is to let the button thoroughly all the time ...)

Second knob: Time, which manages the speed of the delay, the race's knob is long and can really vary more than the small switch attached to the knob to switch from one band to a band at 600m 1100, which roughly doubles the capabilities of the knob

3rd knob: Repeat, which manages how long the delay is active, until infinity! but to delay indefinitely the hand in a kind of feedback / feedback which, by moving the time sounds completely out of space, it's downright deadly to make big noise and good old psychedelic rock!

The manual is in Chinese, I can not really knowing if it is complete at the same time, three buttons, ca be managed without too much trouble;)

SOUND QUALITY

The delay of this pedal is super nice, very clear, some say it lacks a little low, but it depends mainly on the guitar on which we play and setting the amp.

The sound is very pure, and faithfully reproduces the natural sound of the guitar, without filtering unpleasant or loss of dynamic attacks.

It is easy to deal with good effect, the knobs are sensitive and specific (only regret the absence of graduations on the pedal, which complicates the matter a bit to find its settings once on the other. ..)

Settings with very short delay we arrive at sound in "burst" that can be very interesting to think of a spring reverb on which tape, or a super fast tremolo, and more controllable, which makes it even better!

This pedal pushed to its end on distorted sounds a very versatile and reactive side that makes you want to kneel next to his amp and tweak his sounds live, becaufe manages to escape the howling sub-space to the amp by turning the p'tis buttons, and it is purely enjoyable! But watch your ears, because at bottom, the feedback frequency rises permanently it is necessary to manage not happen in the frequency of destructive eardrums

OVERALL OPINION

I've had two months and I am fully satisfied, it sounds thoroughly, as in a registry "clean" (reggae / dub, psychedelic 60's) only in styles much more noisy / hardcore

For the ridiculously low price, there's no photo, it's an investment safe and secure in case of disappointment. For something of this quality (a good analog delay costs on average between 100 and 150 €, and this one 40 to € 50) should not be deprived! I also think buy other effects of the range to complete my pedal-board ...
