Yes it really is called simply DELAY.
Tiesco are in Singapore ...famous for building PC parts
and a meca for young engineers.
It is a really great sounding analog delay. It has a clean crisp, full and bright sound.
The modulation can be used for interesting FX or set to mimic the wow a flutter of a tape delay or disc type mechanical delay.
There is plenty of delay time which means it has to use two chips like it's pricey competition. The feedback control can be set to feedback for loop like effects.
There is even a direct out to allow you to run a wet/dry effect using two amps.
They even had the wisdom to use graphic designer to do their artwork. In short the pedal looks both impressive and very up market!
It is more suitable for a player in a band. Hobbyist like to be able to stamp out the delay time to build soundscapes around. In a band this requires the drummer to keep time to a machine and it seldom works well. In my book forcing a drummer to do that is suicidal. So the point is ...it does not have that feature.
So setting it for a 'slap' works great for thickening the sound and/or creating a funky sounding room FX.
I use that myself often. Of course you can set it up for that classic larger then life echo
...great for solo work ...yes a shredders delight!!!
My fav is to set it with a classic echo then put a very, very slow modulation with not too much depth. You get a very 'spacey' sound that meets the upmarket delays echo's head on but with this sound the echo does not take over forcing you to play less and less ...simpler and simpler. You can do a blistering shred from one end of the fret board to the other knocking out a triplet on every note and all that will not trash your sound...only enhance it!!!
Bottom line ...a very nice well priced delay.
I ORDERED ONE ...and just minutes after completing this Post!
And just minutes later it arrived!!! LOL
Really it was shipped the next day and I got the day after that!!!
So how is it???
Amazing ....the sound 11 out of 10 and the build is 11 out of 10 !!!!
Seriously it is better then the demo! ....and the demo shows it off well.
I can not believe any analog delay can be this clean.!!! It has the clarity of high end digital delay but the fullness and warmth of analog.
It not only looks great but is built like a tank! Just total overkill!
No matter what I say if you get one you will be surprised.
