So this is the basis of a delay loop with a function of 20 seconds.
Modern design, fun, solid.
The delay is divided into several "sub-effects" with a knob slctionnables Crant:
0.5 seconds (in Ralite variable 0.15 0.5 secs with the knob "Time")
1 seconds (0.5 sec 1)
2 seconds (1 2 secs)
8 seconds (2 8 secs)
Then DIFFERENT effects on the principle of delay:
"Reverse"; mode that will play each rptition the delay to the (hard master ...)
"Modulated" a delay which will rptitions shades of chorus,
"Analog" I have not understood the original but it&#39;s basically all delays of 0.5 8 seconds ...
"Slapback" a delay which rptitions trs quick spaces are between 0.08 and 0.15 secs, used in rockabilly,
"Lo-Fi", which is your rptitions depleted harmonics (given its relatively mild one)
"Tape" feature that allows you to type footswitch with the tempo of rptitions,
"Loop", the famous loop function
Two outputs for the Stereo.
Provided without an adapter (it&#39;s a surprise ...) but with collable scratch the back of the pedals, a sticker for the game of phosphorescent scne a "stompslock", a big plastic contraption semi- that soft with holes in it to fit into the buttons and keep his rglages a manual (English).

UTILIZATION

The pedals in itself is simple, for it delays RULES rate effect in the sound, so if you play enough hand knob psych practical enough to avoid the mess sound: D
A knob "Repeats" for the number of rgler rptitions (from 2 to infinity is a hypothse ... Finally, I got bored quickly)
A knob "Time" for the time between each rgler rptitions
The knob for slcteur DIFFERENT effects.
So good, it&#39;s very simple and clear, APRS is a tool and measure matriser hard enough ... take a shot.
Dtail that "kills": The knobs are notched by small carts trs, trs that enjoyable to shoot buttons, a not move, we take its brands

SOUND QUALITY

Ach so, sounds ...
H Well, the pedals sound lche trs pros, no mess at all, it prcis, crisp and clear. APRS, as I said before, you know that the dose effect, as most of the effects of modulation of any fawn.
The attack is well respected, the pedals gives a lot of breadth, depth and dimension to the game
The reverse function is parcontre trs hard use, say that in addition to the effect of grate rptitions you need to plan the game upside down ... Go see for advice Hendrix (Castles made of sand);)
The effects are INTERESTED, the function is modulated is quite funny psych Analog function is the one I use most since trs Tagus, it leaves a lot of freedom and the rpetitions " time ". Slapback is clean but I use it just for what I play, but the function remains in the line of pedals is trs pro ... Lo-fi is the enjoyable ear because rptitions, low harmonics, can be less "lost" in things, because fewer Submitted.
Tape, the delay remains the same.
Loop, attention, 20sec chrono! A bit tight for a grid of relatively slow blues, even when the function is nice for the compounds found at the time and place phrass above. In addition, if the record length is limited can renregistrer over any number of addition, simply press again on the switch above the first record, and off you go ... Note : to record, keep your foot pressed the switch, I had not impede me particulirement.
Clearly, a nice pedals trs in sound is clear trs, trs trs musical pro, the sound is warm and full of harmonics, a really good pedals.
Little regret for the reverse, but the pedals did its job, it&#39;s just the effect is not very easy to work ...

OVERALL OPINION

I reu yesterday, order by thomann for 135 (200 on the market ...).
It&#39;s a good trs pedals with it while taking the principle effects of delay are Intgr but the number does not harm the quality unlike a lot of pedals on the market sold one has a real delay, Designed well, the sounds are really good, I take a lot of fun to play and improve my game, the sound of my guitar takes on a cosmic love 8D
The small addition to the pedals, the loop is exactly what I needed, I wanted a delay to enhance my sound as well as a loop to work, well, the loop takes only 20 secs but in the all had enough. I like the reverse unless prvu, but I imagined something else, otherwise the quality of the effect in itself is good ...
The quality price ratio, for some 150 euros (rounded) is expensive, but I think that given the sounds spit the thing that&#39;s really not a scam.
Accessories are provided, the pedals is really intrssante, but it is so prcise I still have a little trouble get my bearings, but when I want a particular sound I think I will be happy with the range it offers
With exprience, so I do it again this election, I think it has a great delay, he does everything and does it well (well, some delays dpassent minute time between rptitions but I have not yet understood the advantage). I do not change, and I feel that I will take a long time before they have explored all the possibilities of bte: p
I would return in some time to edit this view, but I have not found a default for now, neither in sound nor functions nor in the use ... I see nothing to taint the note
