KOMA Elektronik BD101 Analog Gate/Delay

[sylnau]

Anybody tried the KOMA Elektronik BD101 Analog Gate/Delay?
What's your though?

Just noticed it's available in Canada through Moog Audio.

I've heard good things about it. And if it's a true envelope delay, it could probably go into Snazzy Wow and Flutter territory with more options?

sylnau, doesn't your friend phantasmagorovich have one of these?

sylnau, doesn't your friend phantasmagorovich have one of these?

Yeah, that's possible and maybe univalve.

sylnau, doesn't your friend phantasmagorovich have one of these?

Yeah, that's possible and maybe univalve.

Yeah, we both have one.
And we have the same thoughts about it: it is noisy, it has a bleed through in the bypass, it is not meant to be a delay at first point - it is more a noisemaker. The CV stuff is awesome and it is great to use with other stuff - also with the expression capabilities. Just be aware, that you don't buy it as a standalone delay. That won't make sense. The delay time knob has two third of its way only oscillation sounds - in the one third it goes from slapback to longer reverb stuff - super hard to dial sth. in.

BTW, that pedal has the best slapback echo sound i have ever heard. But in a trashy way.

I have to try using it as a slapback delay. Until now I have only used it for noisy duties.

Basically what Uni said. The CV controller is really awesome. It uses infrared to measure the distance so it works similar to a LDR, but not dependent of the light. It works in stage conditions which is a real bonus. And thanks for sharing the videos, Chank!

There you go, sylnau. Straight from the horses' mouths.

You're welcome, phantasmagorovich. I remembered enjoying those when you first posted 'em.

Phantasm, great video... I subscribbed to your channel.
After a seccond though I better keep my money for the INFANEM Disc Echos or the future delay by Dr. Sci.
They are kind of expensive 400$. I think INFANEM and Dr. Sci will suite my style better.
I was too excited to saw Koma was available here.
Thanks!!!

Be silent about the Kenfamous Disc Echos please. If not I will set the world on fire.
