Delay with tap tempo?

Thanks I shall investigate. I went past Denmark Street yesterday and the only shop that sells Behringer had no reverb or delay pedals in so I couldn't try any. I ended up buying a reverb pedal made by someone else though, mainly because it sounded good to me and it was cheap. Still looking out for a delay with tap tempo though.

isn't there a shop thats opened recently in West London that only sells pedals? I can't remember the name but I have it in a magazine somewhere. I'll take a look. Not sure if they do Behringer though

If you could let me know where it is that would be great, although it may end up costing me a load of cash.

sorry mate, i'm sure you love it, but it's too heavy for me. the one i have is a bit noisy as well.
Why does the weight of the pedal matter at all? I prefer heavier pedals because I feel like they are more solid devices.

why does it matter? because it's my fucking preference you ponce. you, with your delay before your distortion, should understand all about preference.

i also stated it's too noisy to justify an ugly behemoth of a pedal taking up space and mass on my pedal board. i don't need a solid device, i need one that works and is cheap. i don't gig, and i don't weigh very much, so plastic behringer and metal boss devices are about as deep into the rabbit hole as i go. think about it this way: say you like the line park, and one of their other stupid module deals, and you want them both on your board. now you've got to have two of those giant hunks of crap.

^WOW! Defensive!

I agree they are heavy. You could probably kill someone if you hit them with one of them. Where the enclosure itself is built (and weighs) like a tank, the modules aren't. I've seen tons of the modules where someone stepped on them and crushed them in.

Isaac, having one on your board doesn't make too much of a weight difference but if you have 2 or more, it gets very heavy fast. I had a friend that had three of them on his board and it weighed a ton just because of these pedals. May not be a big deal to some but when you are gigging and have to lug amps and gear around, a heavy pedal board kind of sucks.

just wondering why good god. my board weighs 30lbs already, weight isn't really an issue for me. and yes, I gig often. To me Ive come to terms that gear is heavy, its one of the bad things about playing live, but whatever, just move your stuff.

I understand personal preference but are you really not going to go with something because its too heavy? Maybe for cabinets I understand that because some are built heavier then others and you can find one of equal quality that weighs less. But my pedal board is heavy as hell but I don't care because I love every box on there. as far as delay before dirt its the only way that sounds good with fuzz, so thats why I do it, I need to make a video that shows people what happens when I put it after my dirt.

That being said sorry for assaulting your preferences. just curious.

I guess if you have a bad back like I do, weight is an issue all the time.

My thing is, if it's a big or heavy pedal, it better sound amazing and/or be very useful. If it's just an ok pedal and it's heavy and/or big it's not worth it to me to lug it around or for it to take up the room.

I thought I heard or read somewhere that the newer Line 6 docks were a lot lighter. I know the one's I've had were the heavy ones.

I do want a Verbzilla though no matter how heavy it is.

verbzillas would be 100% worth any weight. just for the particle verb

Seeing as how I like delay pedals and I love dropping acid I am really intrigued by that l.s.d. pedal lol it looks pretty sweet. Just curious to know when there will be a demo.

Solve all your weight issues and buy 2 M13s like I did!
