Value For Money : Excellent
Analog delay time long enough for solos higain, fixed modulation Snap.

Importantly, the mix goes 100pcent is great for parallel effect loops (and tables mix).

True bypass, no battery or power supply plugged into the sound is useful in case of boredom on stage.

No switching noise, well I did not long ago.

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use.
The mod automatically lengthens the delay time.

Note that this delay when you cut all the fires and does nothing when it engages (my Ibanez DL5 takes into account what is played just before the snap, nice. And my boss re20/line6 Echopark / Bébert EM600 lets finish rehearsals when the trigger).

SOUND QUALITY

First, and this is a big advantage over all delay pedals I have, the overall volume is much higher when the toy memory is in use.
As I place my pedals after overdrive / distortion / compressor I automatically a volume louder solo is great.
I have not yet tested upstream of a channel is saturated, but certainly not terrible from my past experiences.
Loop (remote) of a peavey bandit is great, boost the volume of the delay gives me almost two additional channels.

The sound: beautiful, warm and soft but not full of noise (except mod mode), very nice, the best of my delays (even the RE20 sounds cold side). My Analog Delay Artec is far behind the EH, I was surprised at the difference in sound.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had two weeks, I'm happy!
Of course I want his big brother, the boy deluxe memory (tap tempo! Effects loop! Adjustable mod! Expression pedal!) Which is not expensive for what it offers.

The nano is a superb toy memory delay, lively, and very cheap indeed (I see no reason why we would almost three times more for a carbon copy).

Warning: it is rather ticklish question PSU with a transformer Ibanez AC109 you're ready. With my other alims Well kindled did not alter the sound. So do not panic if it happens to you!
