3 knobs = overdrive. If you have an overdrive you can stack with the Echo Delay seems like you can save a boat load of cash.

Story time:
My dad bought a car once and me and my brother drove to the dealership to pick up the car he drove there with. Anyway, we are stuck in traffic so we are chit chatting and my brother says "wait until you see the sales guy, he's so dumb".
Anyway, we get there, and as they are delivering the car, the sales guy says:
"Oh yeah, you will love this car, it is very powerful. I mean, your old car had two exhausts, this one has four"
My brother turns to me, gives me the look and say out loud: "Told you so"
The drive on the new one is on the delay signal only though. Kind of if you had it on an effects loop like the Fairfield Maude or similar setup. Could be very interesting.
Yeah it's like a Moogerfooger delay but $300 cheaper. Gonna make growly echo growls.
But is that worth $108? Because new the Echo Drive is $195, after coupon code the Echo Delay is $87.
I've owned 2 or maybe 3 Polytopes, never clipped the circuit on one. I mostly play a G&L with MFDs too, although almost always in passive mode, the MFDs are hotter in passive mode than some actives I've played though.
The gain and repeats knobs on the echo drive are highly interactive. You don't get that with an od in front of a delay. You get mud.
Also, tracking says I should have my PT-3 tomorrow!!
I shot them a message a couple of weeks ago, and they said end of July. It's getting a new paint job.
put the darn thing in a bare metal case for all I care....I WANT IT NOW! lol
Dude, I'm right there with you. I've been holding off on upgrading my TC Flashback (no complaints, just - well you know...) for a Nemesis. Thought about getting a Strymon Timeline, but man that's a lot of pedal!
I have the flashback x4 on my board now. If a used timefactor or timeline came up for a really good price, I would have a hard time waiting for the nemesis.

A PT Pro is cool for worship, right?

Well I'm hoping I'll get my April 8th birthday present of the Reflex by roughly Father's Day. I just hope the Nemesis is available by Black Friday.
