delays with footswitchable modulation

tell me about delays that have footswitchable modulation that i should look into. i'm real interested in a disaster transport. i don't really know what else is out there. i'm not going to buy a timeline or timefactor or anything crazy like that. i don't use delay enough to justify it. my dream delay would have stereo ins and outs and sound like a DMM or something analog but have foot switchable mod and be able to handle dirt in front of it. but i don't know of anything in the $300 or less range that even has stereo in and out and footswitchable modulation, except maybe the el capstan.
what else is out there. thanks.

delaylab has stereo ins and outs
about $200
and all parameters are expressionable
the real reason i wanted to reply
is i dont know what footswitchable modulation is
can you tell me about that

no, really... usually, there's no need to look any further than Disaster Transport for this, because it is THE shit

delay with a seperate footswitch for the modulation. like, straight delay signal and you hit the switch and there's chorus or vibrato on the repeats. check some demos for the EQD disaster transport and you'll see it.

I can vouch for the plain delays on the DT, I have a jr and the repeats are gorgeous. I'm sure the modulation is good too, earthquaker make good shit.
Another option could be to get someone to build you an echo base, or do it yourself if you're into diy.

This is actually a good suggestion. Can have a digital delay as one preset with another in the next preset with modulation on the delay. Switch delays (you can save them with the same tempos) and you're golden. Does this smoothly as well. Love my Delaylab.
Ryan Summit, footswitchable modulation is being able to hit a switch and add chorus or phaser/flanger to the delay trails.
edit : Parker there are also a shit ton of other options with this pedal. Handles fuzz and distortion well. The ambient settings may be to your liking also. Just a thought.

I have a v1 Disaster Transport in B/S/T if you want to score one on the cheap-ish. It's probably due for a price drop and I just ordered a semi-custom Rat Tail so money would be nice. :-D

that kayzer demo is fucking sick. thanks. i assume this would be a good board to ask: does anyone use this thing after heavy dirt, like really slamming the shit out of it with fuzz? how does it do? i had a pretty hard time finding a reverb that i really loved until i got the ghost echo. that thing is awesome with dirt, and in general. it seems EQD knows how to make pedals that work well with dirt, so i assume this thing is good, but just looking for some experience if any of y'all have any.
i'm using a dd7 right now and actually really like it. the analog mode is really good sounding. but i've been getting into modulated delay. it sounds pretty good on the dd7, but i would like more control of the modulation, and would love to be able to footswitch it on and off. and the repeats on the dd7 sound way more digital in the modulated mode and i prefer a more analog sounding delay, even if it's actually digital.
