Looking around, the reviews seem decent. I have decided I really don't need that fancy pants of a delay, because I don't do anything fancy with delay. Especially with the Vox whose reverb I don't hate at all.

Doubt anyone has experience with Rogue, I know it's their house brand and its first line of products were iffy at best. Apparently them Chinese factorizers have stepped it up a bit in recent years.

If i were to hazard a guess, i would do so that this pedlol is either 1. A copy of an actual analog delay like the Carbon Copy, or 2. (and possibly more likely) a digital delay based on the PT2399, which has a certain "analog"-ey sound to it.

Either way, there seems a good chance it is probably worth $30. :idk:

It also has a potential upside to it, in that unlike the Dano cheapo delays, it is in a normal shaped box.

What does the Joyo delay(surely one exists) cost?

Hmm, it is in the same ballpark anyhow, and i am reasonably suspicious that this one is actually a proper analog delay, with Joyo's M.O., probably a carbon copy, of the Carbon Copy:

Generally unsubtle color similarity seems to be about how they roll with their cloney things. Which is like, all of their things.

Ah, an interesting list for cheap bastards of our flavour: http://freestompboxes.org/viewtopic.php ... hilit=joyo

Though it offers no insight on the delays, it is interesting i think, anyhow.

As a related aside, the pedal business is a fucking rotten place to be or aim to be in this modern era.

This is definitely the feeling I get.

I ordered it, so we shall see how it acts.

Honestly worst comes to worst it is a proper metal box to throw at someone.

It's great. Just without a MIDI pedal to control it I am barely able to get the use out of it I should get. But as a recording tool it has been fantastical. I will probably sell it here soon as most of my recording gear is going the way of software, and my live setup has been stripped down to the simple stuff.
