analog delay in nano size

UTILIZATION

simple configuration 3 knobs
1 delay time for "time" between the notes played
2 feedback to the number of repetitions
3 blend to mix his left untreated and treated only right that his

the blend knob is a bit annoying to handle, I would have preferred a volume effect rather

SOUND QUALITY

unlike other reviews I did not feel the volume up by this delay against "colored" fairly sound, there is an equalization of difficult "vintage" genre to describe but is very present, it brings warmth to the sound. I possesses another analog that I made DIY (the tonepad rebote) is the sound is more neutral bcp

repeated notes are accompanied by a breath - this is normal is analog even three times as much time have this feature here ...

the sound is good, the settings allow you to quickly find what you want, watch the delay is not very loooong and dirty too if pushed.

chorus mod is nice to radically change his but I do not use it personally

I use it with a Fender Telecaster and a microphone wide in the clear on a fender deville or twin reveb

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a few weeks, I must say that I almost sell after a few hours of use because he went too fast self oscillation: past 12pm on the feedback knob was uncontrollable and I was getting yelled at by other musicians who were "draft" ... after researching on the net I opened the beast pawed the trimpot No. 5 (note gain per side) and I extended the feedback by reducing autoscillation. the shot is impeccable now.

benefits (bought used for 50 euros and small size of the pedalboard) I do not regret my purchase. on the other hand for those who use very often delay I recommend another or as a digital sound is still processed. for the music I play it goes!
