GAS ....GAS...for those T-Rex pedals.

Will do, I'm keeping an eye on the UPS man...why do they drive so slow? I don't think I've been this excited over a pedal in a long time. OD's are cool but always a variation on a theme, a cool delay you can get lost and inspired at the same time.

Lefty, you will
And the best toy is tap tempo...

I have a DL4 that's been close to the gates of hell and back again. It's beat up pretty badly. Works perfectly.

But it still sounds like a DL4. Tones aren't all that bad. It has 3 programmable presets, a looper mode, and tap tempo features.

With a good amp like a Z, I can't say that I'm really missing out on much sound quality.

I tend to play mostly dry, so this isn't such a big deal for me.

The DL-4 is a good box, I mainly had it set for a delay with modulation and a slap back. Never really used it much in a band situation, would kinda get lost. And the real estate it took up was the final nail in the coffin.

[Strato]

so the t-rex and the TC are definitely the same?

[Dr.T]

They could at least have changed the "look"!
Seems that the choice will be more on "dress" that on tone! ;D

If so I'm on T-Rex, because it "looks" more vintage...

The Replica came today...very cool box indeed. If this doesn't fit the bill for 95% of your delay needs, maybe you should give up. I almost prefer the non filtered (brown switch) sounds. Very nice for digital, very nice. On my board as we speak, or I type. They would sell A LOT more of these but the price is definitely a deterrent. But considering what it can do, you almost forget what you paid for it.

Hey Lefty,

It looks like you're very happy with this pedal.Please keep us update with T-Rex as time goes on.I am really interested with this pedal but I am relying on you and others for their opinions.

Will do. Got rehearsal tomorrow, so we'll see.

[dock66]

Thanks Lefty.

I've tried the T-Rex and it definitely sounds very nice, and is very pricey. I simply need more than one delay setting for the music I play with my band, and at church. After years of using the Line 6 DL4, I switched to a Boss DD-20 Gigadelay and love it. Better sound, more usable features, and even with the Boss FS-5U Footswitch I bought to use fulltime for the tap function, is still cheaper than the Line 6.

If I were to buy a boutique delay, I'd spring for a nice analog one, like the AD900.

You'll like it, and tap tempo too.
Running with 12v T-Rex original adapter gives more transparence, to me at 9v sounds good but at 12 sounds better...

Yeah, I'm kinda in the same boat you are. I need alot of settings. So you like the DD-20 better than the DL4? Maybe I will have to look into it. On my DL4 right now, I have a one setting that has short feedback, but the repeats are almost at unity with my guitar for the U2 kinda stuff. I also have another delay to beef up solos, and one that helps to make noise. How many settings can you have on the DD-20?

With the PP2 it IS running @ 12V. 12.3V to be exact.

The DD-20 allows up to 4 presets.
