iamqman « Nice looper delay »
Published on 07/14/11 at 14:01This pedal is the exact same pedal as the Boss DSD-2. The only thin that has changed in the number two is now three. What had happened back then was the price of the components of the circuitry chips lowered. Amazing because everything today increases in price. So the chips lowered and instead of dropping the price of the Boss DSd-2 they decided to make a new pedal that was the reincarnation called the Boss Dsd-3. They exact same pedal in every way. This one howevere was made for two years in stead of one for the previous model.
UTILIZATION

Sampling mode:
Frequency Response: Sample/Delay 40Hz to 7kHz (+1/-3 dB), Direct 10Hz to 60kHz (+1/-3 dB)
Recommended AC Adaptor: PSA Series
SOUND QUALITY
gain this is the exact same sounding and functioning pedal as the Boss DSD-2.There are two delays setting in this pedal S mode did small delay repeats from about 50 to 200 ms. Where the L mode did repeats from 200 to 800 ms. The pedal does sound good if you like the Boss DD-2. This would be one of Boss's most famous pedals and best digital delay to date. These two pedals shared the same internal circuitry chip which gives them the same basic tone for the delays. So if you are a fan as I am of the Boss DD-2 then you would like this pedal. If you don't want to spend the money on a Boss DD-2 which fetch more money that these pedals then you can go for this one is you are using the basic delay functions.
OVERALL OPINION
These pedals were only around for about one year. You can still find them in the classifieds and on ebay all day long. They usually fetch about $120 to $130. Which is about $10 more for than the previous model. I would recommend this to anyone who wants the tone of a Boss DD_2 and also the looper function. Its a good pedal fro someone who likes recording live and playing over that recorded riff.
