T Rex Reptile Delay

Post by othomas2 »

Just tried this out today at work.. I think it's probably the best sounding delay I've heard for my needs. Lovely !!

The main point is that it has a modualtion section. Designed to give it more of a tape echo sound. Think you can use it to get a DMM kinda vibe too.
There's a trimmer for the input gain too.

I would really love this pedal, not sure i can justify paying so much money for a pedal. Most I've ever paid is £90...

It did sound great though... some delay pedals make you work harder, this pedal just seemed to make things flow really easily. Effortless !!!

I have the Replica Delay and it really is fantastic. It has some nice preamp or something in that that makes things sound good regardless of the delay settings. I've read quite often of people just leaving it on all the time with a very low delay setting just for that sound (the little bit of delay being like reverb in subtlety, you can likely set it to have no delay and just leave it on if you wish).

T Rex make some very nice stuff.

Yeah, it's a killer. In fact, one of the head honchos at T-Rex says he prefers this over the Replica. I have both and I go for the Reptile as well.

My take on it, if you're interested.

Funnily enough I seen that demo the other day... as I have most of your other demos too. Good to see you on the forum !!!

Love how you get your daughter to do the boring laborious parts. :lol:

You really done that pedal justice too !!

Out of interest... do you own any shortscales ??

cheers
