EXP input with 3way toggle switch to set parameter it controls: Mix/Blend, Time, Repeats...

...on an excellent Oil Can echo/reverb "modeler" that uses BBDs.

It is totally worthwhile if you can afford it, so many different uses when you really delve into it
I would love to see a Hexe delay pedal, everything he makes is pretty darn amazing

MIDI in for clock sync
built in step sequencer to define the delay time for each step (like the divisions of the tremolo in the goatkeeper)
a footswitch to double the delay time (temporary)

i thought i chimed in already
guess not
on a dream delay id love the 3 way
but footswitchable
instead of a toggle

What I want but have not found yet is...
-Tap
-Trails
-Effects loop that effects the first repeat and each repeat after is further effected
-Tone knob (something like in the op, from digital Boss tone to the repeats getting all smeared together and dark)
-Oscillation
-some kind of gain or dirty feature like el cap-ish grit or the gain knob on the Supa-puss
- >= 1 sec of d. time

My idea that I want to see!
-Reverse switch (Normal delay/reverse delay switch. And to add to that, a knob that could do some weird magic that changes how fast the delay ramps into or out of reverse when the switch is flipped. Like from some super slow TIME CARNAGE to instant reverse)

And my philosophy on modulation on delays is: if you're gonna put it in there, give us control of it! Not just a mod knob, a depth and a speed knob is much more fun. But I would prefer to leave it out and use the effects loop with some cheapo chorus or something.

But all this plus the effects loop gives you like any delay you could ever want!

EDIT: some delays may fit this like the timeline, but I'd like to see it in a smaller box and smaller price so I would buy it. For example, if I got a timeline, I don't think I'd really ever use the effects loop because it's got basically everything in it already. And in the long run, it would probably be cheaper to get a swagged out delay like the timeline but I would rather have the option to put whatever I want in there and all the knobs and parameters easy to see and turn with my feet.

I don't even know what I'd like in a delay anymore. Geeze I really sound outside of myself. Been running everything into the Traynor with a Super Duper Clone and just been using a 1776 Effects Multiplex Junior which is pretty okay.

I think my perfect delay would be a 70's DMM with a true bypass mod. It's dark, can get gritty, the delays last forever if you want them to and sit under your signal, no tap tempo, WARM, the best and only chorus that I like on delay repeats.

I've come to enjoy certain aspects of my TimeFactor, but at the end of the day when I sit and play guitar, I like ONE sound, and that's dark as hell analog delay sounds with repeats that sit under your signal. If I can have a delay that does that, I could sit down with it for the rest of my days and be happy.

ha! i share this man's sentiment exactly.

I dig it.
Like a built in Expressionator,
sort of...

That would probably be better for on-the-fly switching...
and speaking of which; relay switching like the new Dr. Scientist and/or Effectrode pedals.
Because thump trumps click and pop.

this thread really makes me want to hang on to my electroman (which has an effects loop, tone knob and a footswitch to oscillate).

for me...a delay must have...

- kill dry
- adjustable line level in/outs
- ducking delay

pretty much eventide!

I love my digilog, and I use the feedback foot switch a lot, but what I would love even more is a delay with a foot switch (and toggle) when engaged/held down will either gradually increase or decrease the time (depending on how the toggle is flipped) so you get a real steady oscillation like turning the time knob.
