Value For Money :
Poor
I think everything has already been said.
except maybe the loops of 14 sec max, it's normal speed but slow, time is doubled, 28sec max.
UTILIZATION
The use is very intuitive, a real treat.
SOUND QUALITY
delays realistic enough, I use both mode Delay in loop mode.
Loop mode is super intuitive, with the possibility to change the octave / speed and reverse switch to a single switch.
Used on guitars and basses (strat Us, U.S. Tele, Gibson EB-0), analog synths on (Juno 60, Poly61, SH101) on the song ...
OVERALL OPINION
The big downside of this pedal (especially considering the price!) Is reliable! Having killed 2 in 3 years (intensive use, but good nonetheless € 330!) And have been dying 7 or 8 in my entourage during the same period, I have renounced the DL4!
Especially since it seems that over time, life is getting shorter and shorter (the last friend to have bought one began to have trouble after 6 months!)
In short, if you use it as a simple delay that occurs a few times on your set, you can expect to keep it a few years. However, if you are not using the wrong looper (which in itself is really great), it is better to move to other models like Jamman, 2880 EHX, TC Flashback x4 electronics ...
Ah yes! I forgot: In case of failure, Line6 does not provide schematics for repair! So here I say bluntly "boycott"
I certainly would do this choice, it has cost me way too much!
