«  An honest but no more delay »

Published on 11/12/13 at 03:06
This is a delay of the series Nano EHX

It takes the place of a pedal on a pedalboard unlike Memory Man who eats half.

It is said analog. 1 input, 1 output, 1 9v power jack.

UTILIZATION

- One knob "delay" for the length 550ms which is more than enough.

- 1 for the feedback the number of repetitions that can go to the self-oscillation.

- 1 blend knob, which is a kind of mix. When this is purely live mix, but in an effects loop can act as light boost, nice except that it adds treble not necessarily musical.

- 1 switch modulation unit ... which repeats. Unusable, it sounds just wrong.

SOUND QUALITY

Although at first I struggled with this effect I saw my opinion.

The delay is good, it does not sound Memory Man and it is perhaps better that gives him some own character.

It sounds really good in slapback and reverb false, very soft, very vintage. For solos too, with my G & L vintage sounds. In contrast to the rhythmic separately in clean, crunch or it's too messy.

OVERALL OPINION

I have since the beginning of this year 2013, I had some troubles with power effect would not activate, I changed my diet even milliamps, the effect is active. Both power supplies are working well except that the effect is active with a. It works, I no longer try to understand.

I typed some vintage effects (Chill Jam, Fulltone Wah, Maxon PT-999 etc. ..) but it sounds old vintage, old no.
And therein lies the problem of the effect. When I switched I feel that my hair is turning white, my graying beard and my youth is drawn.

Sure it amuses me in slapback and doing some solos but this is the slap.
I can not recommend this product a little to people looking for a vintage sound not too expensive and not too much space, for others it will think of something else.

Note that I am looking for a one year delay can replace it convinced me that little touch of the hair hedgehog.
