Just curious if anyone has one and what they think of it, I know the re-release was not that long ago. Curious to try one out...

Chillerthanmost told me he got one and he loves it. As to why he loves it he'll have to chime in, but I trust that dude.

Got one and I love it. I would definitely recommend using an expression pedal with it, but you could get by without it. I use the exp. to control feedback, and set it so toe down creates a washy fog, but doesn't run away or get uncontrollable, and then I can just pull it back when I need to, and often just leave the pedal on all the time when practicing. The drive knob can add a LOT of gain, so I rarely turn it up past 9:00. It sounds really nice though, I wonder if it's similar to the MF Boost circuit? Just a good, clean boost that makes dirt before it sound better. The repeats don't get super duper dirty, nor are they hi-fi...they're just very pleasing.

My one minor gripe is I wish the second exp. function was for mix and not time. Mix knob all the way down doesn't take the repeats out of the signal path entirely, so it's like 2% wet to 100% wet, which can be cool. But it would be nice to set a nice hazy fog of repeats and then fade it in and out. Using expression for delay time is fun, but not practical for me personally. I could see a use for it though. All in all, great pedal!
Good deals on ILF: too many to list, just ask!
