thats just so they can trick the first sucker into dumping it on ebay while its already been devalued by this thread. and then *poof* its on TGP and the price goes UP for the same pedal on ebay. :excellent:

The parallel idea is really smart, everyone is stacking pedals in series these days but you don't see many double/triple pedals with the effects wired in parallel.

I think it sounds pretty good, it's the switching that makes it kinda mreh.
You have access to two preset modes using the left footswitch, set via 6 internal dipswitches (3 for each preset).

I don't like the dips having such a vital function, if they were external it would be more appealing.

just think of it as your own custom pedal with only the settings you like wired up. then on the outside its a compact and bulletproof pedal. I usually hate this style of switching on all the empress stuff. BUT I think it works good on this one. I always though that if I need the same pedal twice, I'll buy two. the preset switch just seemed like another way to squeeze money out of people but I would hate to buy two of these for $$$

I really did too...... it's like that movie where they followed a bunch of penguins around........ imagine an effect pedal that made your guitar sound like a bunch of fucking penguins quacking?.......... no one steal my idea........

I love my Superdelay but I cant imagine buying this thing. Why not buy 3 cool boutique dirt pedals and stack em together?
