Boldest pick: Danelectro DJ-14 Fish & Chips 7 Band EQ
Only 4 pro artists on Equipboard own it, but it's ranked #13 in Equalizer Effects Pedals.
Avg price: $144.50
Still so great!
There are better delays out there, I guess, with more options and features, but this unit, which is already more than 20 years old (!!), has stereo ins and outs, tap tempo, 4 presets (+manual mode so really 5 presets), reverse mode and sound on sound mode, all with 23 seconds of looping/delay time. For less than 150$? And unkillable because it's a Boss? What more do you actually need?
Preferred Settings + Usage:
Currently set to Sound on Sound in manual mode, and presets are 1) analog with dotted eighth, 2) warp, strictly for the hold feature, 3) reverse with long repeats and 4) modulate with very short feedback to create a sort-of phaser effect.
Walrus Audio Fundamental Series Ambient Pedal
Avg price: $97.74
Great value, in spite of some compromises
Wouldn't be my first choice for reverb, but if you're already covered in terms of spring/plate/room sounds, this adds massive amounts of ambiance at a very reasonable price. Solid build, looks cool, silent switch, I just wish the power jack was on top with the quarter inch jacks.
