A delay, digital, non-editable MIDI or USB (and then what else), not rack ..
It is small (about 5 cm 3), input output (mono then) and what to put a 9 volt power supply (can also have a 9V battery)

There are three knobs: level (volume) feedback (number of repetitions) and time (time delay), plus a small switch that puts the time delay in one of three available slots (small, medium and large). The scope can range from 30 ms to 2600 ms (that is still two seconds and a half ... more than a lot of competition!)

UTILIZATION

Mega easy to use. the most: The volume of the delay can be strong enough to make the "slap back" to the U2, the three slices of "time range" are well distributed, and knobs, although small, is easily mastered I think. It is also troublesome to manage than any tap tempo without delay what. But with a little practice you immediately what you want.
I have never read the manual, it is useless so it's intuitive.

SOUND QUALITY

That's why (and to dwarf its size) that I took: it sounds super natural, does not blow and does not color the sound that repeats itself, does not saturate (except in some loops or one amp can not adjust the volume) no crackling or weird things (sound hole, loss of sound quality ... I think Danelectro) even if the weather is at max. The rendering is quite "vintage" in fact hot, though the sound is bright when the volume decreases and the decrease of the volume seems to me more manageable than the pedals boss (subjective + +).
bypass is great (0 breath, 0 color)

as it is mono, it prevents delusions "ping pong", and it cuts back a little space. but it does not sound "tight"

OVERALL OPINION

Practice a store of its size, not too expensive, runs on 9V power supply or battery, is set in two seconds, and its robustness is ickel despite the size. it's been two years that I have and it has not moved despite heavy use.

With experience ... I do not find useful to have a tap tempo in many cases, since I have the discrete delay to thicken a clear, or make a creamier distortion solo. But it's still his big limit.
