@coughkidcough1 a friend has the dl4. he says the looper is good,but the tap tempo on it isnt as well working as boss delays. he says theres also a volume drop when you switch through presets.
@123westy321 IMO it's not. I think two or three dd7s strung together are better than this. I have found that the dd20 degrades the tone on longer delays, unlike a string of dd7s which seem to keep the tone intact, and possibly give you more options for sounds.
@123westy321 It certainly is more flexible than a single DD-7, yes. Like Jellogarden has implied, of course two or three DD-7's would be better (or more flexible, rather), but in short, yes, this is better (as it allows more delay time and has a few more options than does the DD-7--not to mention that the double-pedal format allows for some techniques that would only be accessible via "knob twiddling" on the DD-7. Now you can do those things with your feet!).
@lepubicfrenchy6, It's about 40 seconds added together. It's very useful, 40 seconds is more than enough time for anything, unless you are thinking about doing an elaboratly complicated looping performance. Then i suggest you buy one of Boss's actual looping pedals. :\
Long answer: If you have noise problems with any digital delay unit, it probably isn't the unit that is causing it. Distortion and high gain are noisy. Delay pedals at the very basic just repeat what is fed into them. You need to have a noise gate or something between the delay and the distortion. And possibly after the preamp too. The delay and reverb should be the last things in your signal chain. I hope this helps :)
i was thinkin about getting one of these but the twist and the warp mode are the most useless delay modes every inventied. i decided to go with the digitech timebender instead and it has served me greatly!
Great video... and i don't mean this as an insult, but there are times in this video when his voice sounds kinda like Stewie Griffin... that gives it another 100 points in my book...
@Hanskajalka HI. A very nicely explained video. I did not watch to the end(Sorry) But is it possible to layer multiple delay sounds? Like say a triplet dotted 8th and half note? thanks
@Hanskajalka Thanks. How would I set up another unit with this one. I mean if I just put it in series next in the chain won't it delay an already delayed sound? Thanks for your reply.
@MrJackanthony Yes you can actually, in the dual delay mode you can set a long delay, and if you hold the left pedal down it will let you set a short delay of up to 100ms to go with the longer delay.
@radioheadfauxlife Thanks..:) Interesting..I'm still wondering if I should go for that and your reply changes things. Do you know of any videos that demonstrate this feature?
@radioheadfauxlife Does this convert your entire signal to digital? Does it sound natural and organic? Do dynamics really shine and stand out with this pedal? How warm do the tape and analog modes get?
the only problem is, that you cant use the sound-on-sound (loop) and the echoes at the same time. I use it mostly as looper, and while doing so, I cant use any of the echoes. so I will need another pedal for the loops (or echo), thats the only bad thing about this pedal.
I've never seen nor heard these Boss dual pedals. I had a Boss Digital Reverb/ Delay pedal and I loved it. It's long gone. My question is, this one better than the DD-7?
@Dannymusic1999 They're very different, though still in the delay category... I suggest you make the decision for yourself--don't let yourself be bought in by a diehard fan. The DD-7 is newer, and that's why they're in the same used-price range.
Which has more going on - this, or the RE-20? I've an RE20 that I want to get rid of, so was wondering if it's worth going for this instead? What's the reverse setting like on this?...
@tasman1966 Thanks for making your assflag apparent to everyone. Not only did you fail to insult this helpful uploader, but you marked yourself as disrespectful and a 'troll'. Thumbs up!
@jonfender123 it's sort of a disclaimer. you can use whatever power supply you want as long as you use the proper voltage and be sure that the system can handle the current. on a pedal board most people go with the voodoo lab
nova delay! You can tell by the price and looks thats its a better pedal but it is actually a better pedal and they both are pro pedals but the nova is one of the best around.
Thanks a million on the video. I own and gig with this unit, but it's cut a learning curve. I lost my manual and have been frustrated with my output dela signal thinking there was something wrong with the unit. Hre to learn form you I can reset the output level to different db levels. God Bless you and Thanks!!! Rob Ransom
XD it's just backwards sounds. Open your mind for differen't sounds. Hendrix, The Beatles, Barret, Belew.. the backward guitar has been used quite a lot in the last 40 years
My personal favorite is the DD-20. I've loved it from the day I got it, and as for the dl-4 my friend had two of them and sold both of them to replace it with the DD-20after playing on mine.
screw analog delay i hate the line 6 dl-4 the only cool thing on it is the sweep delay... the dd-20 is much nicer in my opinion cause the tone of analog pedals are not thick and full and vibrant enough...
by the way i like that reverse delay so much i thing i'm gonna buy 2 dd-20's and make one 75% reverse... its so beautiful
no. you can use the right pedal to switch between the presets as well. there are also 4 presets PLUS the delay setting for whatever the knobs are set for.
Yeah try 4 presets that can also be accessed instantly by foot...and yeah you actually can have five if you set the manual setting for a different one....so 5 presets and dotted 8th notes....nice try guys
haha they cant be accesed instantly, you have to scroll through them. And also, i have an m13 now, and that can do up to 12 presets, including 4 AT THE SAME TIME! nice try buddy
the difference between the dl4 and the dd20 is that the dd20 has the dotted eighth delay but the dl4 doesnt
the dl4 has a lot of more delay settings and the dl4 has a longer looper and the autovolume effect so some say the dl4 is better but its all your opinion
in my opinion i think the dd20 is more comfortable but the dl4 has much more extra effects i like like the auto volume
hey man i like the tripped out stuff on your other video, i noticed your manual light as well as the 1-4 light are on , How is this and does that give you more combinations
Check out u2john316 on you tube. He does a delay shootout with that song and one of the pedals is the dd-20. Sounds pretty good. He has the best u2 demos on you tube in my opinion.
I use two delays to make a dual delay effect, but now i found out that the DD-20 has the dual delay effect already installed. jeeeez no need to get angry man.
i heard on one of of their demo videos for this that you can make it so the delay stops when u turn off the pedal or you can make it just keep going after you turn it off. Mine is stuck in the "keep going" setting and I'd rather have it stop right after i turn it off, how do i do that
in 1820 a man named fred oslof one day he was working wen a ghost came by and killed him in his lab 100 years later 2 boys went in as a dare they were also never seen again possibly murdered now that u read this the boys and fred will kill u 2nite unless u send this post 5 time b4 midnite i really dont like posting these but i dont wanna die :'(
Ok, I need to rephrase-I know you can play delayed sounds over your loop, I was wondering if I can somehow make the delayed signal loop while in S.O.S.--or do I need another unit?
Thanks, Weirdbag! Just found the answer to my 2nd question-from Looper's Delight website (but delay, not loop):
You can get up to 46 seconds of delay from the DD-20 by using this [PAN] mode and muting one of the two audio outputs. A jack must be inserted to both outputs or the stereo effect (and the potential 46-second delay) won't be heard. The direct sound retains its stereo image, but the effected sound reduces the stereo input to mono, sending it hard to the left, then hard to the right.
Wow. I don't understand why people make rude, acidic, and most of all IGNORANT comments about other people who are volunteering their time to share information. Just watch something else. Great demo. Questions--1.)Can you use the delays while you are looping? and 2.)I've heard you can get 46 seconds for loops-know how? Thanks!
you can use the delay while a loop goes on, but you can't record anything with delay. All you can do is record a clean sound and then play with delay over it.
And you get only 23 seconds for looping. But it's enough.
I had the chance to play around with not one, but TWO of these beasts linked together.... The option were endless for what you could do.
Basically you could loop endless riffs with each pedal and then jam over the top. Very awesome pedal!
My only complaint is that it's been out for years and the price has barely come down at all...... And I'm always wondering if Boss is going to release an updated version with more features(adding extra effects etc etc).
Great video! It's very thorough, and answers a lot of questions that the other reviews don't. Your English is fine. Plus, if people know enough to care that you should've said line level output, then I'm sure they'll figure it out :)
Ok, I've figured it out. You can change the way the right pedal works. To change it hold the SELECT button down when you turn on the pedal. Then you have three options: Pdl1 (right pedal switches to the next preset), Pdl2 (right switches just between the manual mode and the first preset, to switch preset press SELECT) and Pdl3, which works just the way I've been explaining. So we were both right :-)
Ok review but the whole "A" and "B" thing is not for 2 guitars. Its STEREO output. meaning you can run it through an effects loop on your amp or to two different amps for a panning delay. Its NOT meant for 2 different instruments. Thats retarded.
I have the pedal. At 5:10 or so he says something about pressing the both pedals simultaneously.... you don't have to do that for anything I think. I think he made a mistake about that... Anyway helped about the SoundOnSound function... which is a great function, not the looping station but close enough.
what are you talking about? I know I'm right and I just tried it. You change the 4 presets by stepping on the right pedal, not both of them. Pressing both pedals at the same time pretty much does nothing. And try to use correct English: "without bending down to the and doing it by hand" WTF?
Sorry for my English, but what I said is correct: I switch from the manual mode to the presets mode by stepping on the right pedal and switch between the four presets by stepping on both pedals. Then holding down the right one for a couple of seconds you can switch on the taptempo function of the right pedal. That's the way it goes.
Dude, this is pointless. You can alternate between presets just by clicking the right pedal. you don't need to step on bot of them. Imagine what would it look like when playing live - jumping like an idiot on the pedals with both of your feet...... You change the presets by clicking the right pedal, not both of them, don't misinform others. Correct about about the holding down for a couple of seconds and so on... it says on the unit for god's sake. But don't get me wrong-- good video in general!
For what it's worth, on the back of the pedal, it says "Pedal Function: L+R" and under "mode 3" it says "Memory 1/2/3/4" So maybe dude was just reading.
Hahaha you have got to be the dumbest person on the surface of the earth. You first have an argument without actually checking out the information, then when I try to help you by telling you that it's both possible you carry on to (attempt to) insult me ... quite pathetic.
for quality digital with convincing analog emulations, you can't really go wrong with this. not a looper really, but some basic functions for fun. thanks for the demo, I did not know about the different output setting possibilities. cool.
Can this be used on an aux send like the RE20? (The RE20 has a direct mode. If set to on its to be used as an insert and if off it turns it 100% wet)

Ok, I need to rephrase-I know you can play delayed sounds over your loop, I was wondering if I can somehow make the delayed signal loop while in S.O.S.--or do I need another unit?
rocbottomriser 2 years ago
You need an other unit for that.

Ok, I got mine, and I can't figure out how to use the delays while I'm doing the S.O.S. Any help? Is this really possible?
rocbottomriser 2 years ago
Thanks, Weirdbag! Just found the answer to my 2nd question-from Looper's Delight website (but delay, not loop):
You can get up to 46 seconds of delay from the DD-20 by using this [PAN] mode and muting one of the two audio outputs. A jack must be inserted to both outputs or the stereo effect (and the potential 46-second delay) won't be heard. The direct sound retains its stereo image, but the effected sound reduces the stereo input to mono, sending it hard to the left, then hard to the right.

Wow. I don't understand why people make rude, acidic, and most of all IGNORANT comments about other people who are volunteering their time to share information. Just watch something else. Great demo. Questions--1.)Can you use the delays while you are looping? and 2.)I've heard you can get 46 seconds for loops-know how? Thanks!
rocbottomriser 2 years ago
you can use the delay while a loop goes on, but you can't record anything with delay. All you can do is record a clean sound and then play with delay over it.
And you get only 23 seconds for looping. But it's enough.

so would this pretty much replace the need for a dd-3 or a dd-7? i'm using two dd-3s right now, should i just get this?

I had the chance to play around with not one, but TWO of these beasts linked together.... The option were endless for what you could do.
Basically you could loop endless riffs with each pedal and then jam over the top. Very awesome pedal!
My only complaint is that it's been out for years and the price has barely come down at all...... And I'm always wondering if Boss is going to release an updated version with more features(adding extra effects etc etc).

Great video! It's very thorough, and answers a lot of questions that the other reviews don't. Your English is fine. Plus, if people know enough to care that you should've said line level output, then I'm sure they'll figure it out :)

Thank you for your comment.
Hanskajalka 3 years ago
Ok, I've figured it out. You can change the way the right pedal works. To change it hold the SELECT button down when you turn on the pedal. Then you have three options: Pdl1 (right pedal switches to the next preset), Pdl2 (right switches just between the manual mode and the first preset, to switch preset press SELECT) and Pdl3, which works just the way I've been explaining. So we were both right :-)

Ok review but the whole "A" and "B" thing is not for 2 guitars. Its STEREO output. meaning you can run it through an effects loop on your amp or to two different amps for a panning delay. Its NOT meant for 2 different instruments. Thats retarded.
soccerkid843 3 years ago
Yes, I know. But it is not retarded. People, be creative and don't let anybody tell you what you can and can not do. Experiment and be free.

Frostystraidlazed 3 years ago
if you hold down the right pedal for 2 seconds it turns to a manual floor tap so you dont have to bend down during live play.
Arsenalrecordsmusic 3 years ago
I have the pedal. At 5:10 or so he says something about pressing the both pedals simultaneously.... you don't have to do that for anything I think. I think he made a mistake about that... Anyway helped about the SoundOnSound function... which is a great function, not the looping station but close enough.
josipml5 3 years ago
Pressing the two pedals simultaneously lets you switch between the five stored presets without bending down to the and doing it by hand.
Hanskajalka 3 years ago
what are you talking about? I know I'm right and I just tried it. You change the 4 presets by stepping on the right pedal, not both of them. Pressing both pedals at the same time pretty much does nothing. And try to use correct English: "without bending down to the and doing it by hand" WTF?
josipml5 3 years ago
Sorry for my English, but what I said is correct: I switch from the manual mode to the presets mode by stepping on the right pedal and switch between the four presets by stepping on both pedals. Then holding down the right one for a couple of seconds you can switch on the taptempo function of the right pedal. That's the way it goes.
Hanskajalka 3 years ago
Dude, this is pointless. You can alternate between presets just by clicking the right pedal. you don't need to step on bot of them. Imagine what would it look like when playing live - jumping like an idiot on the pedals with both of your feet...... You change the presets by clicking the right pedal, not both of them, don't misinform others. Correct about about the holding down for a couple of seconds and so on... it says on the unit for god's sake. But don't get me wrong-- good video in general!
josipml5 3 years ago
For what it's worth, on the back of the pedal, it says "Pedal Function: L+R" and under "mode 3" it says "Memory 1/2/3/4" So maybe dude was just reading.
silenttrio 3 years ago
Dudes, you are both right and wrong.
You can switch the pedal modes!!
The following can be chosen by pressing the right pedal while powering on:
1. on/off 2. manual/presets 1+2. cycle presets
1. on/off 2. cycle presets
1. on/off 2. manual/presets
josipml5... you might want to do some research before having such a convinced argument...
By the way .. the pedals are an inch apart, you can easily tap both with one foot.
Oh and the pedal modes are explained on the back of the unit .. you 'tard.

Hahaha you have got to be the dumbest person on the surface of the earth. You first have an argument without actually checking out the information, then when I try to help you by telling you that it's both possible you carry on to (attempt to) insult me ... quite pathetic.

for quality digital with convincing analog emulations, you can't really go wrong with this. not a looper really, but some basic functions for fun. thanks for the demo, I did not know about the different output setting possibilities. cool.

but i was wondering, i want to do live just reverses, fairly long ones, can this do that?

yes it would work great. It simply does the effect on all input sounds, including feedback, and even vocals and synths.
