Title: After a new delay pedal, suggestions?
Post by: Mr Ed on June 27, 2007, 01:24:23 PM
What I want is an analog sounding (ie, something not too modern/processed/digital) with a tap tempo function.

I LOVE the sound of out of my delicious DD-2 but the Line6 Echo Park I bought is too noisy when engaged. I love it's functionality though so I'm considering a trade-in.

I'm more than open to suggestions. TA!!

I just checked that out......$730(!)

I'm also on the hunt for a new delay pedal, as my Digitech Digidelay is pretty noisy. So far I've narrowed it down to either the T-Rex Replica, or the DLS EchoTap. The latter is slightly cheaper, and actually has 2 delay settings available at all times.....however the T-Rex just looks cooler ;-)

Let us know how you get on.

By crikey, I wish I could afford a Mooger but, if I could, I'd never do anything other than mount it and play with it.

DLS EchoTap eh? I might investigate that one. :D

I'm also eyeing up TC Electronic Vintage Delay's.

Hmmm.....I'm suspicious of that entire range of pedals. There is an EXACT replica of each of the T-Rex pedals in that range. And they're both made in Denmark, and the equivalent pedals cost the same.

Can you spot a difference between the TC Vintage Delay and the T-Rex Replica? My money would be on the two pedals being identical inside.

(Likewise goes for the Vintage Compressor and the T-Rex CompNova, or the Vintage Tube Primer and the T-Rex Moller etc etc....)

Yeah, they look fantastic, but I couldn't find ANY information on them beyond what's on that site. Noone seems to sell them, noone seems to have bought one, and I can't find a single review anywhere.

I think I've settled upon the slightly-more-than-I-wanted-to-pay-but-totally-worth-it-because-it-makes-me-horny TC Electronic Vintage Delay... or the Replica, whatever... the name "Replica" makes me think that TC Electronic did it first, I thought they'd been around much longer, ie, they were making this shite when it was classed as "vintage" stuff.

One watch of the video and I'm sold. :o

As far as I can tell the only difference is that the Replica is true-bypass, and the TC isn't.

Ok, after having noise-related issues here, that swings things back to the T-Rex. :D

Plus the name reminds me of my new hero - Tyrannosaurus Alan!!  8)

The pedals are absolutely identicle other than in appearance and lets be honest, they're hella-similar there too. T Rex make them for TC Electronic, they haven't been shifting though, since T REX were making them under the proviso that they would be priced the same, but now the TC ones are coming down in price. WIN!

the sounds clips of that pedal sound great but $429 is too rich for my blood just for a delay pedal.

I stand corrected here(!).
I went to submit a question to the TC Electronic support guys to ask whether the Vintage Delay is true-bypass, and it had already been asked before. It appears that the pedal IS true-bypass, although why they don't list that as a feature of the pedal I can't explain!
Cheers,
Jordan.

ps. Given that info, it would appear the pedal is identical to the T-Rex Replica.
