yes it has Delay mode, which I imagine is similar. Audio always goes into
the delay line, like a traditional delay. The Overdub button then becomes a
"hold" function, where feedback is set to 100% and audio is no longer added
to the loop. Unlike the jamman, the echoplex's feedback can be set with
much finer resolution. (I think the jamman only has 16 steps) All the other
echoplex functions work the normal way in delay mode.
