Vintage Modified!!!! I personally enjoy using the Vintage one i haven't had any problems except maybe with introducing fuzz into the mix though gets a little crazy.

@crxshdxmmy Should say that I kept the VM initially. The darker Tape Mode C was cool at home, but didn't really work so well in live applications... not present enough in the mix. I also got a little fed up with all the random modulation on the VM. Went back to the standard.

So besides the tape delay difference are the other delays the same?

@colab4life Yes. Only the Tape modes were tweaked on the VMSD.

Does the VMSD have more headroom vs the original SD? I never played either one, but I might prefer the original SD for the reasons you mentioned.
Thanks!

@LongHairRockerTN I'm not sure there are any voltage/headroom differences... just tonal tweaks. In fact, I'm fairly positive there aren't any voltage/headroom differences. The VMSD is just darker and has more intense/quirkier modulation than the standard.
