As discussed the other day - I ordered the MD-3, and here are some samples I did.

Also, updated pic of my 'board, including the MD-3, Orange footswitch and momentary switch for the RC-2.

Man your board is looking awesome!

Always so clean and tidy and full of some lovely toys on there. Listening to the sample now - it's so small and cute - sounds great too. That momentary switch is awesome too.

Thanks Mike

I really like the MD-3, like you said it's dead small! Liking what it does an awful lot too - is really clear.

Really good sample, the tone of that thing is wonderful!

I really really like it. Glad I went for it - I'd heard the samples on the site and after you recommended it to someone I thought I'd go for it - so thanks!

No problem. How much do they cost by the way? it's a nice sounding small delay innit.

It was Â£78 from www.hotroxuk.com and I don't remember exactly, but shipping might have been about Â£7.

Very nice! board and demo. And dude are you a therapist or something? you could solve everyone's problems with that sweet calming voice!

Jealous of the neatness of that board. While I had no power I moved things about but I still havent got to a neatness I like.

hahaha

Lamp needs a late night radioshow!

Pedal sounds cool, dewd. I'm craving a DD-6 to replace my slightly unreliable MDX in live situations since I use it for delay 95% of the time- plus the DD-6 does lots of other neat stuff.

Haha! Maybe I should be - I'm looking for a change of career!

I think I'm quite anal about my pedal board - takes me ages every time I change it!

Yeah I'd like to mess around with a DD-6 and all the extra stuff it can do.

DD20.

Seriously. DD6 with tap tempo and presets and analogue/tape echo sounds. SO much better for only a coulpe quid more. Trust me.

Only because you want rid of yours

I don't have the pedalboard space, and the DD6 would do me plenty tbh. I'm gonna buy Tweez's at some point soon (probly fer birthday). Doesn't the DD-6 do tap tempo anyways? I could sworn Mr Weirdybeardygearywirey was showing it off.

I've already sold it dude, get with the program. Needed Â£ for the JVM.

DD-6 tap tempo is shit (hold pedal for 2.5 seconds then tap then hold agian before you can turn it on - SHIT).

Get a DD-20 - it can do soooo much more. Analogue, Tape Echo, Looping. Presets. It's MUCH better.

Oh yeah, it was Harry selling his.

I'm sure it's rad, dude but I really don't have the need for that many options. I use it delay for like a minute or two tops spread over a WK or CB set, I'd have no need for all the extra modes and stuff.. nor tap tempo to be honest. Just doesn't seem worth spending the extra 50 or so quid for a load of modes I'll never use.

You can fit it on your board. Do it.

I had to rehouse my RAT back in it's stock case because of the lack of space, I defo don't have space for something twice the size. I HATE having 2 rows of pedals- I've got enough to worry about onstage without having trying not to fall over..

The only thing that's fighting in the DD20s corner at the mo is the fact you can save patches.

*shrug*

It's 4 times the pedal if you ask me.

So do I. But I hate having to run the 100 meters going between my compressor and my flanger
