Value For Money : Excellent
Here is a pedal forward / reverse delay, ie a delay (digital) standard, and a reverse function to have what you play ... in reverse.
metal case, pedal heavy enough, then.
1 input jack, two jack output, with a purpose and a dry, for use in stereo (see strength in use)
4 pots: a mix (to increase the presence of the effect and reduce the original signal, and vice versa.
1 speed (for speed, there are 3 good seconds of delay in forward as in reverse)
1 repeat (to infinity if the hi-cut is at the minimum)
A hi-cut (to reduce the high frequency of repetition, to give an echo effect type)
Two switches: one for the tap tempo (very good compared with other pedals boss type that need support to remain difficult to use ... 2 secs)
1 to trigger the effect
So good at all, but I did not beucoup other points of comparison.

UTILIZATION

Easy and clear complète.Manuel (in English, but no problems). The pots are accurate.
I issue a reserve still on the button reverse: it's small, plastic, and the race is not straightforward. In addition it is innaccesible foot. Other switches seem solid.
the highlight is the presence of independent tap tempo.

SOUND QUALITY

The forward delay is very classic ... but digital, which makes the diffcile hacks live, especially with the speed (very fun exercise that I gave myself up with my ibanez echomachine). Rehearsals are very good: the very fast 3 sec at full stride. The hi-cut is very significant to give a vintage side.
go, I can not resist, j'enclenche button back! ... and there the trip. I have long dreamed of having the sound of the Beatles' Tomorrow Never Knows, is very much in live.et réussi.Même if the riff can be placed directly in reverse, to make a loop, I do recommend, however, d first forward and then press the button, because it's very random. In 50/50 mix for solos is also very effective.
a discordant note: two enormous tail light cadillac diode that act causes some interferences (especially the tap tempo).
I use this on a tele lite ash. (Note a switch behind the pedal that lets you select the type of microphone used to offset or reduce the signal)

OVERALL OPINION

Used for a week. (Perhaps I will bring details after some time of use). I bought it mainly for the reverse function as I already had two delays (one of my vox and echomachine ibanez)
I will soon be the comparison with the reverse function of the Boss DD6, a friend of mine just bought. The value for money is good (85 euros bought new).
I think if my budget had allowed me, I bet on a DD6, but I'm pretty satisfied.
