DELAY- HORIZON DEVICES Flux Echo ...a modern echo/delay ...frustration free!!!

HORIZON DEVICES FLUX ECHO 
$200.00 USD
The market is a wash of delay and reverb pedals. most are full of devices that referred to as ambient pedals
The problem for a gigging player is they have very little practical use because if play an average tune in 99% of any styles they turn the tine into mud because the delayed sound simply swamps the guitar. worse still you could be onto the next chord or two and the delay is playing a chord or note totally harmonically clashing with what you you are playing a split second later.
Some ambient tones are both killer and work better like those on this pedal. Like ambient reverb with analog delay, modulated reverb with reverse delay and shimmer reverb with tape delay.
Two features that are both very welcome addition are a tap and freeze/hold and it will do 'spillover' ...you can set the echo to continue until it fades away when you turn it off.
CONCLUSION
The sounds are great and it takes care of any features that if they are not there can cause frustrations. The spec is high enough not to interfere with the ascetics of the tones it produces. The damn thing simply just works and does the job!!! It has nothing you do not need and anything you might!
