EarthQuaker Devices Disaster Transpot 'Analoggish-Digital Delay'

EarthQuaker Devices Disaster Transport

Someone had posted a short bit of info about this a long while back. I just wanted to let people know that it now has it's own page of info and they are shipping. The clips sound very nice.

I absolutely love it so far. The modulation controls are very sensative and it has some really cool sounds that aren't like anything else. I want to play with it for a while before i write a review but its not going anywhere. Its definately one of the better gear purchases ive made. And it looks wonderful. Here is some eye candy:

Interesting sounding modulation.

Might I add that Earthquaker has the most aesthetically pleasing designs on the market these days.

I'd love to get one of these delays. It's gonna be a while though.

I wonder if he would do an expression pedal mod for the modulation?

It is a PT2399-based delay, so it is digital. The repeats are warm, girthy, mirky at times, and have the ability to be very loud, overtaking the original signal. I think the newer units have a speed switch for the modulation to go from slow to fast. I sped mine up quite a lot from the stock unit.

The clips above in a flash player for easy playing:

With the NOC3 Firefly (my fast modulation mod clips at the bottom):

Here it is in the pedal level loop of a Cielo powerscaled to 1w:

This isn't a typical delay, but there are a lot of good tones to be had. I particularly like the fast modulation sounds and slap backs that are slightly louder than the dry signal.

Thanks for the great demos! I'm definitely getting this.

good pedal. i had one and let it go. the repeats just were too distorted and that bothered me when playing with loud echoes. I preferred how the DMM "melted" in the repeats, where as the disaster transport "exploded" with repeats.

I have one and love it. I would agree it’s a very analogish delay. At times it reminds me a bit of my Deluxe Memory Man. Highly recommended!

Can someone fix the spelling for the name of this thread? Transpot?!

It doesn't show up in searches...
