Need a delay/echo pedal

[1,2,3, Pull Out!]

I want a dealy/ echo pedal with lots of features including looping and reverse echo and stuff like that, I was looking at the the ehx stereo memory man or the boss dd 20, possibly a DL 4
Ive got like $300 to spend on it.
any suggetsions?

Dude, stereo memory man with hazarai all the way. So much fun in one pedal. Not to mention it can do slow flanger, decent chorus sounds, and nit crusher/ring mod madness.

Do it.

Is it really better than a DD 20 though?

I wouldn't get a DD-20 if I were you, Jeff will kill you.

I prefer the smmh out of those listed...looper has a bit of a leaning curve but you can do a lot with it. Really versatile and the modulated delays are top notch. It does 100% wet reverse if that matters.

I recently replaced my smmh with a super delay (everything a SMMH does and fixes a lot of things I didn't like + really nice tape echo ), but thats pretty pricey unless you catch an awesome trade like I did

DL4 is a solid choice, the main benefit being the extra stomps for presets. Another gripe about the smmh was the way you recall presets...you have to push/twist knobs. DL4 (and super delay ) are controlled by stomps.

Still, smmh just does so much for the price and is worth it if you can look past a few minor flaws.
Considering I had to get a $450 delay to 1up the smmh, i'd say the smmh is a solid choice in its price range

I haven't played a DD-20. But the SMM/H can do so many things and it all sounded good to me. Good for regular/ambient/fuck you delays. I don't know, you'd have to try one but I think it's the best 'do it all' delay pedal out there in the price range.

DD-20 is pretty cool, but I don't like that it has a mix control instead of a volume control. It only gets as loud as your dry signal. At best.

If I was going to drop $300 on a delay I'd get looking around for a good deal on a Timefactor. They're like $450 new, yeah?

Also the DD-7 has basically all the features of the DD-20 at half the size with a better looper. No LED readout though.

+1 for the EXH SMMH and thanks again Jared.

yeah I tried the DD-20 and the DD-7 and the EHX smmh i liked the ehx the most. You we're right Pumpkin Pieces! It does soo much I could play with it for hours. The boss ones were good (I don't get why the dd 20 is neccessary with the dd 7 present) but smmh does so much, also you can get the echo to sound much warmer than on the boss dd's.

Warm echoes are overrated. Give me back exactly what I put in or give me death.

TIME BENDER!!!

Have any of you cats run a bass into a SMMw/H?
Just curious how it handles the beef.

[my bloody television]

it doesn't have all the bells and whistles of the EHX, but the Akai Headrush E2 is an awesome delay/looper. I think it's got 26 seconds of loop time with infinte overdubs, plus a standard digital delay and a tape delay simulation. It also has 4 (!) separate outputs plus the main mix output for the tape delay so you could potentially run 5 amps with it!

it's also built like a tank and look pretty cool IMO

DM-2 and a RV-3 FTW

When I read the title I had suggestions but as you are looking at the opposite end of echo then I like [Maxon, Malekko ect] I wont.

But I will say that the EHX MMWH is a nice sounding pedal but from what my guitarist goes through if you want something to remember pre-sets look elsewere.
