Gary, You know, I was so stoked to enjoy a 28 second riff, that I wasn't paying total attention to the freqency response at the slow speed. I was using a Les Paul Studio into the DL-4 into Line6 POD preamp and listening to Sony 7506 headphones. Other than not paying attention, I didn't notice any significant deterioration of the signal, if that helps at all! (I am accustomed to the sound quality of the JamMan, and I gave back my Boomerang after being unsatisfied with its audio quality) Some of the other delay models, such as the tube echo, solid state echo, and lo-res delay actually have some 'deterioration' of the delay signal as a signature of the model, much like those old beasts i liked to goof around with at the vintage shops, but never had the time/money to want to own them. This unit rocks.... As far as the switches, they seem to be fine. I prefer the short travel switches like on DOD pedals and my Midi Pedal, but these seem to be nice and smooth. Imagine a 'reissue' MXR pedal and thats about it. I only tried the headrush once for a short time at Guitar Center, so i don't have a good a/b of the switching, but this thing will eat the headrush for lunch as far a sound variety and sonic possibilities...
