I guess it all depends on what would suit your needs best. The Lunar Echo isn't super packed with tons of modes and features but what it does gives you a boner, it does exceedingly well. The modulation is incredibly fun, going from very subtle chorusing to all out wacky pitch bending shit, in addition to anything you want to put in the fx loop and you have a pretty wide array of possible sounds. (and it is indeed my favorite delay :p )

The Superdelay is also great in its own right. You can obviously achieve longer delay times without self-oscillation, various modes of reverse delay, a short but fun looper, etc. and despite being a digital delay it's far from sterile sounding. It has a very subtle, but great sounding modulation with a few selections regarding intensity in the tape setting and high/low pass filter options.

Or buy both and have the ultimate ill type delay sound. :cool:

So I have decided I will purchase the Lunar Echo and then get the Superdelay.
Then I will spend the next 10 years of my life experimenting with them both.lol

The Lunar Echo seems pretty interesting. I'd love to try one out. I have a engineer/producer friend who is friends with the DMB guy, so he gets all the pedals for free. I need to go over and steal that one and give it a run.

As a bit of a delay junkie I will say the following......
The Superdelay was the biggest OMGICANHAZGAS pedal for about a year or two when I first became addicted to pedals..... it might have actually been the pedal that instigated the craze for me. And when I got FINALLY got one my life was complete....................

.........until the El Capistan came out. Sold the Superdelay, bought the El Capistan, profit. Haven't looked back since. It doesn't have as many settings as the Superdelay..... but that's where the Timeline come's into play. :evil: I will say that even though the Superdelay does sound good it isn't very tweakable. If it's an "advanced delay" that you want I would go with either the Timefactor or the Timeline. Much more option heavy.

I'm pretty much set with an el capistan running into a drasp modded dl4. Can do much including looping.

I played through a Timebender in a store for an hour or so. Thought it was decent and you can get them pretty cheap used.

Saw this and figured at least univalve would dig it.

It sounds like you’re playing your instrument on the porch outside of your house and inside your amp is slowly sinking in the toilet, CV controlled of course.This might sound strange, but that’s just what this pedal is about: create weird resonant frequencies, shift between heavy delayed and cranked sounds and super short pulses, with whatever instrument you want to plug into it. The BD101 comes standard with a solid footswitch, multiple inputs, true bypass, an audio and control voltage patchbay and our new innovative expression controller. Freak out!

Wow :!!!:
That's the sound I'm looking for.
Do you know a delay that sound like that but in a smaller enclosure?
I wish the Malekko lo-fi EKKO 616 would sound as good as that.

damn, that's hell of a deal :thumb:

i'd personally be very careful about buying though - taken my experience with Pigtronix. Top notch stuff, but maybe too experimental and "out there" for me

Free shipping, no customs and you can return it within a week if you don't like it. Also infrared controlled CV. I was barely able to stop myself from ordering one right away. Mainly because I haven't gotten into the whole CV thing yet, but this pedal is an excellent reason to do just that.

Me too, but it's too big (not pedalboard friendly).
Is there any other gate/delay pedal?
