A simple, brilliant, and flexible delay
This is a simple, brilliant, and flexible delay from EQD. It handles high gain extremely well, but also surpassed my expectations with clean sounds. As a fan of analogue delay I was expecting to enjoy but not love the analogue simulation, but it’s fantastic. I don’t hear enough people talk about how cool the ability to easily move from the manual setting to a preset is. I consider this one of my essential pedals.
