Viernes Negro

Did anyone else succumb to the full court press of mailers, eblasts, commercials, etc. and purchase a Black Friday Sale item? I picked up a $30 analog delay. Hopefully it sounds better than I think it might.

That is one bland looking pedal.

I'm fighting the urge to buy a pedal or two. I've been wanting to buy a Z Vex Machine for awhile. I had one years ago and sold it for no good reason. I could also use a new phaser. If I didn't have so many bills this month or if I had the ability to save money there's a place with 20% off Matchless and Bad Cat amps and a DC30 or a Hot Cat would have been a hell of a present to myself.

The 99 dollar Fender Greta amp that Jibberish posted looks kinda cool, but I don't need it... or do I?

Musicans Fiend has a few of those Rogue pedals for 29 bucks - compressor, distortion, chorus, etc.

How's it sound Jake?

Just okay. It can only do pretty short delays, so I won't be keeping it.

From what I've read they are "analog sounding" and not actually analog, they use a pt2399 cmos chip.

Ordered these for my oldest kid. He drums all day and all night.

What a great Dad.

most "analog" delays do have a short max delay time

aquapuss, boss dm2, etc.

carbon copy is an anaolg-ish delay with longer max times

I was and still kinda desperately AM searching for somethign to buy myself.
no more effects for me tho I dont think, unless theres something new and great??

For an analog delay with long delay times, I can't recommend the Analogman ARD-X20 enough. It's all kinds of awesome. Not cheap though.

I recently played the Earthquaker Devices Organizer. It makes your guitar sound like an organ. It's pretty fucking sweet with a clean tone. Having that signal overdriven wasn't as great, but I didn't get an opportunity to try it with an overdrive before the pedal or in the FX loop of an amp. I'm very curious what it would sound like with a pre-overdriven signal fed to it.
