DMM would be my choice if it wasnt for the huge enclosure. Trying to ever so slightly slim down hahaha

You could prolly pick up one those Howard David designed Xvive DMM alternatives and still have some cash left over for more bliss fulfillment. Also - since you mentioned the DMM enclosure being an issue - if you want to wait a bit longer, they have a mini DMM being teased for release:

Excuse me, but perhaps you didn't hear me the first time so I'll say it once more. :) The Nemesis is the best delay for everything brah. EVERYTHING. So check out the demos. I promise you'll be hard afterwards. PROMISE. ;)

The PB&J really sounds better than it has any right to.

Recently sold my 2nd Nemesis (bought it the second time as I was finally able to use the App in my ass backwards part of the world). For ambient wankery, it's tits. For standard delay engines + more, I actually preferred the sound of my Timebender. Plus, I could never get the mix right on the Nemesis, even with the alternate mix setting in the App. Fantastic delay, though and I'd still recommended it to most people.

You mean it's also good for good ol' Time knob tweaking feedback madness?
I couldn't care less about the App/tone print kind of thing, but if the Nemesis can do digital and lo-fi dirt as well, it's getting interesting... I'm always worried that a do-it-all machine might lack character or personality...

I mean, you should. :idk: I was also too cool 4 school b4 trying it out and was surprised by how useful it is. Also, some of my favorite lo-fi engines/sounds are in the App, so it's worth loading at least once and slapping them on the main unit. Then again, I was impressed by the Nem without even touching the App. Just depends on what you want out of it. Also "do it all machine = must mean it lacks character or personality" is an illogical viewpoint.

Again, the Nemesis didn't work out for me and I also didn't see the point in owning 2 multi delays (with my Timebender), so I sold it and have been super happy with my current setup. Just don't let your stated worries get in the way of something that could be a great tool for your music.

Thanks for the input. But it's more basic than that for me: I like to use a specific machine. I like to work with its limitations. For me, working with a computer to feed pedals kills the magic. But it's just my opinion/taste.
And do it all = lack of character is a classic. Makes a lot of sense to me, the more you design something to encompass everything, the greater the chance you'll avoid anything too drastic... Look at Industrialectric for instance, their shit is so personal/peculiar, I don't think they can be considered as "do it all machines".
That being said, my mind is pretty set on getting a Nemesis... I'm pretty sure it will be a great pairing with my more straight to the point analog delays.
