you are absolutely right Bernhard Boss has gone backwards,I tried the dd-6 and was really dissapointed,unpractical and somehow it sounds a bit more steril,but the DL-4 has all those wonderful functions,the problem is switching between delay mode and loop mode,thats why i want to have a separate compact delay pedal. reading your web got me also curious to check out the vesta delay...perfect drones with it, wow i want one!
