Skreddy Echo

Just thought I'd let you guys know about this one.

EDIT: I dig the warble.

300$?! hell no.

I've had my skreddy echo for about a month or so and wanted to make a few observations for my fellow bassplayers interested in the pedal. I've had or still have the following delays:
Dan Echo, Guyatone MD-2, Korg Dynamic Echo, Earthquaker Distaster Transport Delay, Boss DM-2, Retrosonic Delay, Boss RE-201, Line 6 Echo Park, Maxon AD-600, Boss DD-3, DOD DFX-9, DOD analog Delay, Ibanez AD-80, and the Skreddy Echo.

The skreddy echo in 9 volt sounds gritty and beautiful the repeats turn into a faint beautiful harmonic mess that just lingers in the background, same with 18 volt but the repeats are clearer. The oscillation is also wonderful however the volume doesn't increase as the oscillations get more intense.

The down side to me is that the lows get cut out from the repeats, however with the effects loop you can tailor the sound of the repeats with an EQ in there, to whatever you want, add lows, boost mids, cut highs, even add a faint OD onto the repeats like some Tape Delays have when the levels are boosted. I think that the effects loop is what sets it appart from every other comparable delay out there, because you can tailor the repeats with whatever you want, next to my Ibanez AD-80 the skreddy is the best delay that I've found for me, maybe you'll find the same too.

Cheers,

Ed

Got one in a trade...

Clean -> Echo -> Muff + Echo w/Chorus in Loop

Sounds pretty amazing. Now put a second delay in the loop, and self-oscillate a self-oscillated delay signal. That's what I would do anyhow.

Doesn't sound like 300$ :/


Sounds like a good trade perhaps...

One setting and out eh? Not like you to be soo squeamish about price!

This.

 

[grygrx]

This.

Won't space/time collapse?

 

[Joe Gress]

I don't think so. When I had a SMMWH and a carbon copy, I ran both of them into each other all the time. The carbon copy in the loop of my qtron+ was pretty neat as well.



I really want another analog delay again.

You got me thinking here (note: I don't consider myself knowledgeable on delay pedals). What other delay pedal offers: tape emulation, effects loop, and modulation for less than $300?

 

[grygrx]

I don't think so.

So you are suggesting.. IT IS POSSIBLE!

minus the efx loop, Nova delay. It sounded nice but still, not 300$ nice. 200$ nice would be something i'd consider

 

[grygrx]

Still been surfing this....

delay pedals I could find with effects loop...

Skreddy - $325
Seymour Duncan Deja Vu - $250
Moog - $699
Keely Mod DD-3 - $209
Diamond Memory Lane 2 - $499
Blackbox Quicksilver - $450

Why not? The worst is that it might just feedback so much that it stays at a constant loud drone. Try it!

All I know is that if this thing had an expression jack for feedback amount, I would be all over it.

I thought it sounded pretty neat and I really enjoy the warble effect. Thanks for the demo grygrx.

Doesn't an empress super delay have outs?

Just an expression I think. Unless I'm missing something on their page.
