Why you should (or shouldn't) play with a DD-3 when you're bored.

... you start making noises like this.

I tell you what, the more distorted the original note gets, the cooler it sounds

KeithBMI · #2 08-13-2007, 07:23 PM

I would write a song and use part of that for an intro.

So, correct me if I'm wrong, but you wouldn't be able to reproduce that with the the current DD-?, right?

You should, I just bought this DD-3 new from MusiciansFriend back in May.

But what about the DD-6(is that the latest?) I thought they all crapped out when you turned the delay time knob.

yummy self-oscillation...

Ahh, takes me back to those wonderfully awful '60s space sitcoms.

Weird, but

What'd you use to induce the sounds out of that feedback?

My EHX #1 Echo produces a different sort of feedback madness... I'm sure you've heard it already

Two of them were initially a sweep of the Power Wah, one of them was with the BR2, and one was with the Flanger. After the first hit it was just self-oscillating and playing with the Delay Time and Mode knobs.

the DD6 does, in fact, stop oscillating when you switch between the S, M, L, reverse, etc. delay time settings. apparently, the DD3 does not react the same way.

news to me, too!

ahahaha. a lil through the clip, I could swear i'm listening to a diesel engine idling. well, until it speeds up and becomes higher pitched....
some cool sounds you got goin there. you must have been REALLY bored. lol

Jazz Ad · #15 08-14-2007, 02:26 AM

Yeah a DD-3 can do this type of stuff, not the DD-6.
Cool beans.

KromaatiKlauun · #16 08-14-2007, 07:54 AM

I love weird sounds

niftydog · #17 08-14-2007, 05:27 PM

Thanks jet and jazz!

Did know the DD-6 stopped when switching between those the delay type settings, but I didn't know the DD-3 didn't. Now I have to get my hands on a DD-3!

just set the feedback? or wahtever the number of delays to the farthes clockwise it will go, this sounds really cool with muted/slapped strings

niftydog · #20 08-15-2007, 05:24 PM

No, I meant varying delay time without destroying the sample. I remember years ago shunning the boss digital delays because they dropped the sample when you turned the delay time knob.
