Digitech is killing it with their new pedals!

[Adamixoye]

Any new announcements we may missed?

Well, I ordered a Drop from MF over Labor Day (got a deal). But it's on backorder until later this month. Checking the Prymaxe site they seem to be out of stock as well. So the pedal must be generating some sales.

I'm guessing that's not what you mean though?

Hopefully that turns out more BBE and less Dyna Comp

I see MightyMiloQuinn beat me to it! Yes the new DOD 280 has been released and it is killer.

Original 1974 circuit, true bypass, LED, modern PSU jack, aluminum chassis, freakin' orange.

I like how what gets one post and no replies (well, one now) here has its own four page thread on TGP.

It does looks cool though, wonder when we'll start seeing demos.

Probably because us bassists are perhaps a tad bit more demanding when it comes to compressors. I'm sure the new DOD is great but it takes a lot more for us to get excited when it comes to compressors. But I could be wrong as well!

I think he was talking about the new Polara, which is a reverb...

 

[groovebass5]

Oh... That's totally my mistake! Sorry about that!

 

[groovebass5]

I do have to admit that the Polara looks like a really sweet reverb though!

 

[Lethgar]

Depends on the price. They will have to undercut TC to get me excited.

I still need a 250 reuissue badly though

I hear you on that. I absolutely love my HOF Mini

Other than the box, how is this different from the digitech/hardwire supernatural?

They sort of addressed that on their Facebook page. It's mostly the packaging, switch, etc. But there is a new mode. Here's what they said:

Hey folks we'd like to introduce our new reverberation pedal: Polara.

Polara features 7 Lexicon reverb algorithms, one of which is a new mode called Halo. Polara is what I consider to be the natural evolution of the HardWire pedals. Based upon your comments over the years we have reduced the size, incorporated a soft-touch vacuum-style switch, updated the look, but kept the world-class sound.

Polara is the shape of things to come here at DigiTech, hope you dig it!

1. Different modes than the Supernatural
2. Brand new Halo mode
3. New soft-click switch
4. Exposed tails switch
5. Much smaller size
6. Gen2 Stomplock
7. Less expensive than the Supernatural

Looks like the street price is $150.

From what I can gather, it's more akin to the RV-7 than the Supernatural. The Halo mode and trails switch seem to be the major difference. The other major difference is the size, which you can see here: Invalid Link Removed

Hey digitech rep? Just wondering if there's any plans to come out with a jamman update with memory i can use to play samples that doesn't have a funky power supply? Digitech fixed this issue with the newest generation of whammy pedals. Is it something that's being talked about for the jamman?

 

[Lethgar]

That's unfortunate. I'm in the market for a big verb but for 150 I could grab a used EQD or similar, or a Mooer skyverb and a joyo trem and some strings. Was hoping more for 110ish but it's understandable.
