SimonEdward Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Hello all - I know I only ever post when I need help.. (no, not that kind of help).. But, My TC/Pro Guitar shop Alter Ego delay pedal has packed up - no power - have tried everything, even a battery! http://www.tcelectronic.com/alter-ego-delay/ I got it 2nd hand about two years ago, and it's probably not worth the hassle or expense of getting it repaired. TBH I'm a bit sad (yeah I know), but I'm annoyed that it hasn't lasted - I've only used it to record at home. Ce la vie. I'm looking for your recommendations for my next delay pedal please. I like digital + modulation. Around £100-£150. I'm [u]not[/u] looking at the 'Flashback' (good, but been there), or the Alter Ego 2 (no regency or mix controls), or the X4 (too big for me). Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0175westwood29 Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 love my boss DD-7 has alot inside, including modulation, reverse, analog but also has a very good looper. but the ehx memory boy maybe worth a look really nice delay that one! andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProfFrink Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Don't know much about delays (never used one with any seriousness), but just as a coincidence I was watching some Digitech Timebender videos today and this thing is a beast.

GrammeFriday Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 I hear what you say, but the Flashback is VERY hard to beat ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonEdward Posted September 18, 2015 Author Share Posted September 18, 2015 Appreciate your suggestions! Thank you The Digitech timebender is interesting >> http://iheartguitarblog.com/2009/07/review-digitech-timebender-delay.html#sthash.sZd0l9uh.dpbs ..and has a ton of features, but it's beyond my budget for *new* and way too big. I forgot to mention I've been trying to downsize the number of pedals I own, and my main board to either a Nano+ or the Warwick rockboard 'jam'. I'm trying to think of a reason why I wouldn't buy the DD-7, and it's because it looks like 'innovative' BOSS updating the DD-6 to match some of the features on the TC 'Flashback' (itself a compact TC Nova Delay). This is partly why I went for the Alter Ego in 2013 - the presets, and you have access to the toneprints. [quote name='GrammeFriday' timestamp='1442587632' post='2868039'] I hear what you say, but the Flashback is VERY hard to beat ... [/quote] How about Earthquaker devices dispatch master? (digital, no modulation but has reverb - I have a TC Corona) Or the Earthquaker disaster transport ([i]analog[/i] voiced digital delay) and a TC HOF mini.. heard some very good things. A nice headache! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretmeister Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 I just got a TC Alter-Ego X4 at a great used price and it's ace. Has a looper too. And due to the tone print sorcery it will also do everything the Falshback X4 does as well. If your board has the room then it's worth looking at.
