wrt to other lazy f-kers...
i got a friend who uses the Digidelay for delay purposes... and chorus purposes... he puts delay to zero and uses the modulated mode...
Chorus and delay pedal in one! LOL

LOL interesting because modulated delays should only offer modulation if there r delays.. it's not like a delay n chorus pedal like the H2O which is a separate thing.. well i know the DMM doesnt do that though.. |

DMM can do leh.. you put delay to zero and up the chorus... or vibrato... i think

yeah but the chorus n vib are not the kind of chorus n vib u find in normal pedals.. it's more for modulating delays ain't it?.. well if it does it for ur friend.. then it should be good enough for anyone.. ;D

actually in all chorus/flange/vibrato/trem pedal, there is delay topology... so they can harness it..
ah heck lah.. yeah, it works for anyone can liao..
the reason why i bought the DMM was also got more options... i like the vibrato.. maybe i shouldn't sell it...

DL-4 definitely can, chorus, phasing etc. There was a site with the setting, but i think its been down for quite some time liao.

i disagree on that a bit sir, i may be wrong, but the boost should not 'cancel out' anything, it should in fact, take the exhisting signal and merely amplify it, as it is not a distortion or od circuit, that messes with the equalisation (tho theres really no such thing as CLEAN boost right?) of the signal. So , the only way you can 'cancel out' the signal is by reducing the boost below unity gain. Then again, it depends on the amp you're using and then again you'd probably not wanna add too much volume on a high gain, high volume, mid cut signal, which may be unpleasant to your neighbours and may be hazardous to small animals around your home, worst of all, you dont wanna scare off the people at your gig. ;D so for me, i'd add a very slight boost to medium boost, at the back of my chain. however, i'm yet to try the real stuff, so its just what i'm thinking i guess ... ;D yo, no worries  Its cool to have disagreement and we can share our point of views here. i guess bout the boost pedal cancelling out part. From what i have tried, usually its when using a overdrive pedal as a boost plus another distortion pedals. Some distortion pedals can get picky what goes after and behind and thus i noticing some weakening in the sound. Some purist even disregard using a od pedal as a boost. Imho, theres nothing wrong or right, its just different people, different opinions. Bout using certain boost pedal, like the zvex sho or the sd2in1. The clean boost is pretty obvious, having that pedal in the chain set as unity gain, the clean tone really sort of "jump to the front", the clarity and the brightness can be pretty obvious. Once the pedal is off, even at the same volume with the pedal on, it feels like some life is taken out from it. |

This is the part i like bout clean boosts, tho may not be that much good as a solo function, but its a good sound i guess. |

Anything that can enhance the tone in a way which inspired playing is always goot |

so can i say compressors are like boosters just that the signal is more compressed?..  |

hehe, thats also correct!!
Just turn up the volume of the compressed tone.
Aint it ironic. It boost and it compress at the same time ;D

found an article in Guitar Player which explains tt as well. But can't rem now...
In some racks, there's a make-up gain control to restore the signal to its previous volume level. Interesting.

actually if you boost the signal thru a compressor and you put zero compression, it will just be a processed with supposedly no compression signal...
well... the truth is out there.. so go get it! ;D
