I recall a while back when you were getting one of these units, George... but I don't recall you getting rid of it.
Didn't like it? Was it "overkill" for your needs? Or...?
Just curious. . .

Legit question! At that time, I was only using the Fulltone to give me a quick repeat at the end of single line runs...seemed silly to have a $1000.00+ unit just for that so flipped it. Lately I've been trying to improve my take on a few songs..Sleepwalk, Ghost Riders In The Sky and Apache soooo started to go back in that direction some. For the moment, I think I'll stick to my basic setup of guitar-reverb unit-amp..unless....sir_andrew_of_left_coast wrote:kenposurf wrote:..or get another Fulltone REAL tape echo

Well, the DD-20 is very versatile and you can get almost every delay sound you can think of. But the major strength is the way you can control this unit. You can either set the delay time precisely or set the beats per minute or use the tap tempo function. What is more there is a memory for 4 of your own presets.admin wrote:Markus: Do you have any comments regarding the DD-20 beyond the tape echo setting.
Thank you. I agree. And I think that the modern tape delay emulations by Roland and BOSS are so good that you can hardly tell a difference to a vintage tape echo concerning the tone - except for the fact that you will not get hiss and noise.admin wrote:I like the analog delays over the digital for tone, but when it comes to control, the latter are the winners. Your "Sleepwalk" delay, for example, is hard to beat.
