Looper's Delight

The
DL4 is basically a delay with a looper thrown in as a bonus. What it will do:
record loops, overdub loops (albeit with a non-adjustable feedback, so there is
no real "replace", i.e. where you record on top of an existing loop and after
you're through, the original loop is replaced by what you overdubbed), switch
forward/reverse and do half-speed (or double speed, if you recorded in
half-speed mode). There are several different nice delay algorithms, models of
"vintage" delays (like a Roland Space Echo) as well as practical delay
implementations (ducked delay, reverse delay, stereo, pingpong etc.). It's
basically a very user-friendly delay and a simple looper (where you can't store
loops). It's a small pedal. It does delay AND loops (even loops with delay), a
feat which e.g. the Boss RC-20 doesn't accomplish.
Another option would be an Akai headrush, which is considerably cheaper,
and gives you REALLY long delays (23.8 seconds, to be precise). I still have one
of the Akais around which I don't need anymore - feel free to inquire off-list
if you might be interested (I'm residing in München btw).
