I love the layout, the functionality, and the ease of self-osciliation (if you're into that sort of thing). I'm not sure I'd trade one for a Boomerang, because I know I'd get a lot of use out of the Boomerang, but if you're Jonesing for a delay, the Maxon is my holy grail. |

You can crank the Delay Time left to right (whichever way decreases the delay time.. It's been a while since I messed around with one) while sounding a note to get some really cool "rubber band on interstellar acid" sounds, especially if you're running a fuzz and a flange before it... |

my guitarist has ibanez AD9 and he uses it for simple slap back...
under 300ms is for reverb, above 1,5 sec is for looping
so the in between is all good delay time!!!
the new AD999 goes up to 900ms, the previous AD900 goes to 500ms or some thing like that

I'm finding I like limited choices from any one given pedal. I'd rather a single killer setting than a few (unless it's switchable between the few without bending down to reset everything).
That Echobox does look good though... there are a few Subdecay pedals I'd love to try. |

If you aren't sure what you need get something like the Boss DD-20 or EHX SMM/H that will cover a lot of ground
