That's not even remotely feasible from a DIY perspective. There's a reason you only see that on Boss and Line 6 digital pedals.

make sure the OD is bass-friendly and has a decent range of gain (headroom is a plus, too..)?
maybe a dual delay??

Or, OD-Delay combo pedal to rule them all?

I'd love to see a digital/ analog delay combo. Run the digital into analog. What would be cool is to
Be able to control the physical pitch of your delay. Or if you ran two delays into each other and had the ability to change the pitch of one of the delays. That way you could do a pingpong type of thing but with different pitches.

What ALSO would be cool is a simple digital delay with the ability to max the feedback knob, but freeze it. That way you can still play with your sample in the background. Basically just like a Digitech PDS type of pedal.

S awesome, but $270 is outta my budget. I've got a pretty good combo with my 616 and boss for ~$180. And I've got mod, and other features.

A delay where each repeat is a little more distorted, or something like a Metalizer where it's a delay and distortion.

Analog Delay Generally works a bit like that anyway with degradation.

And regards the Metalizer, I was chatting to our Resident Doctor & Scientist about adding something simmilar into his Elements design.

Hmm.

I could do a delay and let the buyer choose between multiple kinds of dirt as the other half...or maybe have clipping options...

Like teh new Big muff except with one half distortion or fuzz and the other delay or another modulation effect, that would rule! :joy: :thumb: :joy:
