View Full Version : Is there an echo with footswitchable modulation?
Looking for suggestions, thanks-

The Memory Lane and Disaster Transport spring to mind.
Those reboxed Chandler racks do, I think... not that its particularly feasible... :)

Don't Keely or AnalogMan have modded AD9 that accomplishes this?

Keeley has one, but I don't think AMan does. The Hiwatt Custom Tape Echo also has this feature, plus it's tape and has 1.5 seconds of delay.

Neither AM or Keeley have that function. The Keeley AD-9 has a foot switch to operate oscillation/feedback NOT modulation.

T-Rex Reptile does, but it's pretty pricey; however I hear lots of good things about and the rest of the T-Rex pedals.

yeah it's oscillation and feedback... sounds great but not modulation. Check out the Diamond Memory Lane.

Keeley actually has a mod to control delay time with an expression pedal. Since changing the delay time while the delay is in use is what creates the modulation, you can definitely get modulation out of it. I know because I used to own one.

the hiwatt tape echo doesn't have footswitchable modulation.

donnerbox spatial delay. awesome for that short echo feel. one model is just two delay times the other is add modulation.

so you'd have to be pretty precise to get any kind of non-extreme modulation from an expression pedal. i assume the OP wants to turn on chorus on the delays with a second footswitch.

:tapedshut...can't... hold... it... in!
I'm working on one. give me a couple months.
Foot-switchable modulation, foot-switchable tremolo that effects either the delayed signal or the dry signal, FX loop- also switchable from dry to wet, oscillation foot-switch, dry output for stereo, short/long delay times up to 1 second, tone control for the repeats.
Oh... crap.

'olay molay captain! That sounds like a beaut'!
If you are now to tell me that the modulation section sounds like a DMM, then I am going to give you all my turduckets and get in line.

The Pigtronix Echolution has two delays....tap tempo and modulation.

In a sense, you can turn on the modulation side to get your mod delay...but you don't have tap capabilities with the mod side.

Can you please expand on this? What would the difference be between oscillation/feedback and mod?
I'm thinking modulation is sort of a chorus-type-like with the Skreddy echo. IN a sense, that would be what I'm after, but with a footswitch to engage the chorus-stuff. Tap tempo would be cool, but not all that necessary.
Thanks for the posts, guys!

If tap tempo isnt necessary....check out the Echolution
It's a great sounding pedal.....

reptile sounds awesome. i own one. it doesnt oscilate though

The Keeley DD-3 mod adds an affects loop, like Diamond, where you can add effects that will be repeated/compounded. If you also have a volume pedal in the loop you'd have control of the modulation.

You're right... modulation is a chorus like effect on the repeats of the delay. Swirly or slight changes in the pitch of the delays but not the initial attack.
The oscillation on the Keeley would be similar to turning the repeats on your delay to max and letting those repeats feedback over and over. It gives kind of a runaway effect. The switch is momentary... meaning you need to hold that switch down and it stops immediately when you release your foot.

Just to clarify, todaystomorrow is referring to the AD-9 mod. The DD-3 mod is different.

Yeah.... sorry. I'm talking about the AD-9. I have no experience with the Keeley DD-3.
Well howabout buying a 3rd Hand and apply to your delay of choice?

The DL-4 can be programmed to dial in modulation via expression pedal.
Just sayin...

Ya know, I had a DL-4 for a couple of years and really couldn't love the thing. It's feature packed and has most of what I'm after, but, for the first time ever, I was able to tell that the pedal colored my sound and added a bit of sterility to it. I finally understood those terms and what people mean by them somewhat. I sold it and wish that there was one that was a bit more lifelike.
I'm thinking the Memory Lane is what I'd need. I could sell my chorus and actually have all my chorus and delay in that baby. The Pigtronix also looks impressive.
