Re: Headrush vs. DL4

["Luigi Meloni" <luigimeloni74@libero.it>]

I've been using the Headrush for almost a year now, and I never had any
problem with hiss. Probably the problem is with the adapter you use with
it.I use the original one which came within the original Akai package, and 
I
have been using it either in the fx loop of my laney valve combo or in the
send-return of my Boehringer mx2004 mixer and never heard any hiss coming
from that unit.And I don't think it is a one trick box, as I find
particularly useful as a fake tape delay, with its four outputs, which you
can send to 4 channels on your mixer and get different pannings or eqs or
processings. If it was possible to you I would advise you to get your hands
(foots) on both the units.
