I was all :whateva: , but then I listened to the clips on the Strymon website and now I'm like "my goodness" :omg: . I don't even think I was this pumped to try the Superdelay. Where else are you going to get a delay pedal that sounds like a tape machine that's about to break. Plus it has stereo outs, which I wish my SD has.

Do yourself a favor and stay away from this site.



I should listen to what you tell me and stay away, now I need that pedal so badly!

I tried to warn you.

Don't feel bad, I would've clicked on that link too. I'm always clicking on anonymous links. Especially after someone tells me not too. It's a bad habit. :p

Now I've really got to get this DD-20 off my hands.

I definitely need money for one too.

I've got a brother or two that I could do without. Anybody interested? Come on guys, I REALLY want this delay!

I have a Superdelay and love it. I have a PDS1002 for low-fi repeats and crazy holds, and it is awesome. Now all I want is a tape delay, like an old Watkins Copicat, or a cheap Space Echo if I can find one.

Then again, that new Capistan delay sounds legit. Strymon is churning out some great stuff.

Also you should go and try out the Memory Lane 2 just because it does everything V1 does, and more.
Do you like listening to homemade music? Me too. Why don't you try one of mine?

thoughts on the memory lane 1 and 2? are they worth getting? or would my money better me spent on the strymon?

I've owned the superdelay, and loved it. but honestly I felt as though I could get all those tones from my m9 and DMM, so it seemed kind of redundant.

The Strymon El Capistan sounds great, but having to hold down the two buttons at once looks painful. I wonder why they didn't use a flip type switch? I hope there is a version 2!

Just put your foot widthways, shouldn't be too hard especially in shoes.
