ha, your right Charles, I still tend to think
of the 2880 as a hybrid delay looper/phrase sampler. This is probably because
you can't change the loop/delay length after the initial setting without
stopping it as you can with the DD 20. I do use it a much like a long delay
looper as possible. A really long delay! I think 30 minutes with my 1 gig card.
I also wish you could set the feedback to fade even when you are not recording
in to the loop also as in the DD 20. The two together are close to a perfect
match.

style time adjust
Scott,
Both the EH 2880 and 16 sec delay can be used as a delay+hold
because they have feedback controls. But they ALSO both have 'old school'
control of loop length / pitch control.
original: I am hoping I can get a list of
delays with hold function that have old style time adjust (like the PDS8000)
The Roland RE-20 seems to do it but has no hold function as far as I can
tell. What about the DD-20? Thanks
Clifford
my answer: yes, the
dd20 does do delay looping, you just have to mess w/ the feedback knob, i
don't remember it having a lock/hold option (but it was a while back that i
had this, & my memory is crap....). i'm not sure about the re-20....does
the feedback go to 100%?, if it goes to 100%, you got delay
looping.....
my old post (below) from april...various pedals do it
different ways. "hold" function is one way, the new digitech pedals
(digi-delay and dl8) have that if you keep the feedback at 3 o'clock, you
can continue to add stuff to the delay time, then if you move feedback to
100% it will lock the delay loop in and you can play over it (or mangle the
time) and have the mangled time be your backing loop (my fun use). so under
the category is any delay pedal (device) that offers 100% feedback. one ex:
the ibanez de7-the delay does not go to 100%, i think when i had it, the
most repeats were about 10 and it would fade away, but yes, i think we need
a DELAY -BASED LOOPING LIST.
FROM MY OLD POST BACK IN
APRIL:
some already mentioned:
boss dd20 (23 sec)
boss
dd7-(does 6.3 sec in the stereo out mode)
digitech dl8-(8 sec) -i
love this thing
dod d12-(12 sec) my original long looper, 1u rack
space
lexicon pcm42 (modded up to 20 sec-david torn and others
use)
digitech pds series-i think had 8 sec
digitech rds-8 sec rack
unit
akai headrush 2-says 35 sec of delay, 5 sec of tape delay mode (i
research & debated getting, didn't though...)
there are also some
old zoom multieffect units that i thought had 10 sec of delay???? can't
remember model #
korg dl8000- 8 sec i think...
boss roland space echo
reissue pedal-i thought i read had 6 sec of delay
digitech rp150-5 sec of
delay-can glitch it nicely, new 155 has it also.
the zoom g2 also has 5
sec of delay, but when you try to mess w/ the time, it just shuts off, but i
just read that the next
gen of this zoom g-something.NU has a 5 sec
looper that overdubs (just read about it not sure if 5 sec is going to make
anyone
get all excited since the new digitech rp155 models have 20 sec
looper in them....ok, i won't get started on this rant
again!!!!)
digitech timebender (5 sec)-didn't love this....although it
got a good review in latest guitar world mag
