Full routing ============ * Boss Chromatic Tuner, * T-Rex Luxury Drive booster then the signal goes to the pedalboard, apparently to Overdrives/distortions: * Ibanez Tube Screamer TS808, * Digitech Bad Monkey Tube Overdrive, * T-Rex Møller.

We go through about three a year! But I love that pedal, and we’ve been using them since the beginning. Mark and I generally use the same settings in different ways - the stereo delays mainly. Even though we don’t send it out stereo, it still gives it a very interesting bounce to it.”

more"How I Loop Using the Line 6 DL-4 I've been getting some questions on how exactly I'm making the swell/pad sounds, so I thought I'd make a video addressing it. Basically all I'm showing is that I will record an initial loop of silence. From then on, I can leave the record button on and essentially record without boundaries, and the sound will just loop over itself. I hope that makes sense... It gives me the ability to make a nice pad sound without having any sound cutoffs."

moreThis is it, folks; the fabled “green box” that’s been igniting creativity, passion and sheer awe since Line 6 first released its digitally modeled marvels on the world in 2000. Containing 16 models based* on legendary echo and delay boxes from the storied Maestro® EP-1 Echoplex to the awesome T.C. Electronic® 2290, the DL4 has in turn become a classic in its own right, as popular with guitarists as it is with singers, drummers, bassists, keyboardists, and anyone who wants a pure 24-bit true stereo signal path in the service of delays that run the gamut from gritty and psychedelic to pristine and heavenly.
You’d be insane to pack an original Roland® RE-101 Space Echo or Electro-Harmonix® Deluxe Memory Man into the back of your van for a club tour, but the DL4 packs models of those sounds and many more into a rugged, road-tested steel housing that can run for up to 30 hours on four “C” batteries or with the optional PX-2G power adaptor. Models of classic delay boxes—and the sweet choruses and vibratos that accompany many of them—are just the beginning; the DL4 also boasts innovative sounds like its “Auto-Volume Echo,” which combines a volume swell with a tweakable tape-style echo; or the outstanding “Reverse Delay,” which allows you to play stunning backwards guitar solos on the fly.
You also get those U2-style “Rhythmic Delays” in several metric flavors, super-cool “Ping-Pong Delay” effects, and outrageous stereo panned repeats. Look, if it ain’t in the DL4, it probably doesn’t exist . . . until you create it. What’s more, with its onboard 14-second looper, the DL4 is both the perfect practice tool and the ultimate creative canvas for crafting overdubs and creating textures, with its ½ speed and reverse modes ideal for sonic adventurers and arrangement-minded recordists alike.
Like all Line 6 stompbox Modelers, the DL4 boasts a simple and sturdy front panel design, with four footswitches for saving and recalling your sounds, and six knobs for selecting models and tweaking parameters, with distinct assignments for each knob depending on the delay model you’ve chosen. Paired with the optional EX-1 expression pedal, which lets you morph between two radically different settings for each of your sounds, the DL4 is truly the ultimate delay pedal, making the history of echo and delay available to your creative future.
I bought this more for the looping capabilities than the delay (14 seconds of loop memory). Gotta admit, I saw Howie Day several years ago making heavy use of it and I loved the looping bits he did with it. It's just a very fun box, price isn't bad either for all you get.
EDIT: here it is in action http://youtu.be/LdqM8-gc4vo?t=6m2s
Line 6 DL4 Delay Modeler Demo
Plan on getting a cubist effects standard mod on this also.
SO many different delay effects. Can bank up to 4 preset sounds. Plus a looper. Great for live and recording. Used one for years and didn't use to its full capacity. Just so many options.
This is a great delay pedal and have so many combinations to use! But this have some bug's, 1/8 and more, with some practice u can use this!
The Line 6 DL4 is one of those pedals you almost have to go out and try simply because of it's popularity amongst guitarists. To be honest, I'm not much of a delay pedal snob. I haven't owned or tried enough delays to really understand the nuances. Maybe for that reason, the fact that this pedal models 16 echo and delay boxes is perfect for me. The guitar sound I really like to emulate is a Editors/Coldplay/Bloc Party sort of sound, and this pedal has plenty of options for that.
I'm a fan of looper pedals, so the onboard 14-second looper is really what sold me on this one. I saw it as a way to get a good looper and a variety of delays all in one box... at least until I build out my pedal collection and go deep on some delays. The loop function is super easy to use, and 14 seconds is plenty of time to record a substantial loop and jam on top of it - it's pretty satisfying sounding like a one man band!
The build quality is great, I've gigged with it and have had no issues. Admittedly the price is a little steep, but I've had this thing for so long and it has brought me so much enjoyment that I don't really think about what I paid for it.
I'd say an easy 4 or 4.5 stars out of 5 for the DL4. Even if you're a delay pedal purist or collector, try this one out, it might still have something to offer you.
Have you tried TC's Flashback X4? I think nowadays is a better alternative in the same price league, and I think it's not as popular as the DL4 just for the fact of the many options you have around today while the DL4 made its way a time ago when the fact of far less competition helped turning it into the classic that today it is.
I haven't tried the TC Electronics Flashback X4 - wow it looks so similar! Yeah I totally agree with you, the DL4 came out a while back and now everyone uses it. Next time I'm at the guitar store I will definitely play with the X4 and let you know what I think :)
Yeah, the X4 is very similar at first sight as it doesn't overwhelm much more about the interface (indeed, it looks/feels even easier) while in fact it covers many other advanced features (useful and inspiring), I'll be waiting for your review then!
Perfecto para hacer rarezas y efectos interesantes manualmente.
I know this is the most ubiquitous modeling delay on the planet, but I really do not like the DL4. I am glad they invented this 4 button format to be copied by companies like TC Electronic, but I just could never get into the sound of this thing when I owned it. It lasted maybe 2 weeks and went out the door! I did really dig that filtery delay model for creating wild portishead HPF repeats with increasing resonance and cutoff. This pedal also seemed to compromise my core guitar tone even when disengaged. I felt it compressed everything and cut my bandwidth some. I hate that. the tap worked well though, and that's good as were the silent switches. Not for me though. I apparently still have one of these but it seems to be broken. Color me surprised.
Why the shit did I sell it? No idea. It's lo-fi, it's got its limitations- but it's just endless fun! I plan to get myself another one soon as I can.
you sold it because they break so easily? Line6 invented the 4 button delay pedal but they also make the least roadworthy pedal in this style, no wonder they discontinued it in favor of those M series all in 1 pedals. The filter delay is where this guy shines... otherwise I prefer TC stuff, but I used to always find uses for the filter delay and I can't reproduce those exact sounds with ANYTHING else w/o chaining up gobs of effects or resorting to post processing with plugins.
I just miss goofing around with this guy. My tech put in all these mods & better switches. Community rules!
I've seen people add little toggles allover these.... no idea what they did. I broke mine so fast on the road that I abandoned the whole thing and went back to my Yamaha SPX90 and a rack for a time...
A pedal with endless possibilities! It is very well build. Some people complain about a volumedrop or about the switches. I don't experience any problems with it. I used the regular flashback of TC Electronic, but I was missing the opportunity of presets. Especially the looper is very useful. The pedal is quite big and maybe expensive for some, but for its sound and possibilities it isn't expensive at all.
I would have given it 5 stars but some earlier production runs were little vampires. They'd suck tone from your instrument from the moment you plug in. Other than that this is a great delay pedal with several mods available out there. The loop function is fun.
all the ones I've tried were tonesuckers and the delays have a plastic quality I cannot get next to
Ya know I felt the same about it not sounding quite right at first. I got a pretty good deal on it and I liked the looping and reverse features on it. The delays eventually grew on me. I think it sounds best in stereo. It can sound a bit muddy in mono for sure IMHO.
I am a bi-amp guy so I've never really used one in mono except for that tweaky resonant filter delay on a recording one time... its better in stereo, still weird sounding compared to TC stuff of the same era like the delays in the old G sharp rack
replicate EVH tape echo, 80s Memory Man, U2 Edge delay
This pedal has served me so well. I'll admit it, if i had the extra money, I would have bought myself a TimeLine a long time ago. I picked up my DL4 used quite a while ago and it has been a valuable part of my board ever since then. Although it doesn't have quite as many options as some of it's competitors (few can keep up with Strymon), it still has more effects and combinations than I have ever been able to put together and there has never been a delay lick that I haven't been able to replicate with this guy. It's also very easy to use and figure out and the controls are straight forward and logical. On top of all that the looper in it works great and gives you even more options with stop/play button, a "play once" button, and even some settings that allow half speed and backwards playing of your loop. I love this pedal and I have a hard time seeing myself let it go after all we've been through.
Need some delay pedal!
A very complete and open ended delay. 3 presets. Tap tempo. I love the loop feature. I own two of this. I use them sometimes for looping and the other one for delay. or at times, I use both for loops. I love its play once, reverse and half speed function. You won't find that in a delay, except for the Strymon Timeline, but just to have the features this pedal offers talking about loops, you'll spend like twice the price of a DL4. The downside is that at times, I used to have troubles correctly powering it. (it uses supposedly 2000ma). Also, I haven't experienced it, but I've heard that sometimes the switches fail. They can be changed, but I guess it's normal. According to its use. To me, it's better than the Flashback and the DD20. Haven't tried the Eventide or Timeline.
Hours of fun. From simple analogy delay to faithful reproductions of effects that are now veritable antiques & impossible to obtain -it can be a complex pedal but great to have this array of options in one stomp box thought it does take up a lot of real estate.
Have owned mine since 2000, no issues but I believe some people are not faring so well w/ older version of theirs.
i thought this would be a crazy good loop station, that's not necessarily the case, or at least I can't get it to operate as such, it's basically my favourite delay because of its presets and price point.
its great how you can save 3 different delay modes as well as have tap tempo. this pedal is amazing
Vários "pedais" em um só, muito bom!
My main delay (though I have three on my board). Great sounding delay, I use the Digital delay setting, the Sweep echo setting, and Analog Echo setting.
This is one of my most used pedals by far and I could not be more happy with it. Though size wise it is rather large, if you really care about delay, you will make room for this powerhouse of a pedal. With countless banks and programable and quick-changable presets, this pedal can switch independently between 3 different presets at a time. The tap tempo helps a ton when you need to make last minute speed adjustments on the fly and has come in handy several times live. The DL-4 is used by some of the best in the business and for good reason. Whether you want quick snapback delays or huge (and I mean HUGE) stereo ping pong delays, this pedal can do it all. For cheaper than most EHX pedals, the only better pedal that I know of in terms of delay is the Strymon Timeline (more than 2x the price). To sum up, this pedal has never let me down, extremely well built, and can create about any delay sound you can think of. Do yourself a favor and go get this pedal as fast as you can.
what about the Flashback Xx4? not as awesome as the timline, but much better than the Line 6 in many respects
The Line 6 DL4 has many good options for any artist. It has the precision options I like and a great 14 second looper. The good thing about the looper is that it has many effects, with a half time (which can be used to double your loops speed when used craftily) and a reverse looper effect it can be handy, I use it in tandem with my Ditto Looper.
From delay, looping, and so much more, this little modeler can do almost anything. Very versatile and incredibly rugged, except for some switch problems.
This is a good sounding and versatile unit with a huge variety of delays and modulation effects. The looper is also unique and opens up to many new possibilities (listen to Minus The Bear...) footswitches could be a bit smoother.
This thing is amazing. It has everything that it should, and none of those extra little things that it doesn't. Very basic, but very functional looper pedal. If only it didn't break so often.
since i couldnt buy multiple delays i just bought this one
This pedal was my intro into delay. I rocked it for ten years until it gave up and once a Line6 pedal is done, it is done. The sounds just blew my mind. I used the Tape Echo, Tube Echo, Lo Res and Analog at all times. Four stars because of their short life.
My ONLY issue with this pedal was the foot switches. Easy fix, now its amazing.
I really only use this to create loops. It's great though.
