I played a 3 knob Stereo Memory Man tonight (with the delay/chorus switch). I was impressed with how musical it sounded, could create tons of atmosphere, fine-tunable, and could sit back in a mix or get out in front easily (via knob twiddlin'). So now I want to learn about DMM, and have to catch up on 30 (40?) years of back story. Anybody got a link to a comprehensive overview, with pros and cons of various models?

How do the recent reissues compare with vintage units? One thing I liked about the 3 knob unit was how simple it was. I don't think I need tap tempo, sub-divide capability, etc (maybe I do?) Seems like the feature-rich TT550 units are only $30 more expensive than the simpler XO reissues? School me on the DMM, or if there's an online resource, let me know. I did find this page, wondering if there's more to learn:

The different big box DMM's and new TT550 units are the best sounding ones in my opinion, the rest I would avoid, especially the XO.

XO is great. I used to use an 80s big box, sold it, missed it, got an XO, 100% satisfied.
If its a 30 dollar difference though, TT550 may be the way to go.
