a brief demo about the hold mode. It provides you 40 seconds of recording, which is enough time for home practicing. Great boss pedal in my opinion, i wish there was a way of using delay while recording/playing in hold mode though. Playing in a epiphone dot and a fender super champ xd. Playing the cheesy but lovely tune of Paul McCartney "Silly Love Songs".

I don't have any tabs for this, sorry people...and thanks for the nice comments

  • Hi, I've been looking for something like this! :) From what you have said, does this mean that all the effects cannot be used when in 'Hold' mode? And another thing which has really been confusing me-> what is the difference between delay time and loop time? Apparantly the boss dd7 has 40 secs loop time and 6.4 secs delay time. What does this mean? I was hoping you'd be able to help me out! Thank you! :) x

  • @DesirableDin Yes, you can't use any type of delay from this pedal while in 'Hold' mode (which is the loop mode). The thing is, while in this mode, the pedal records only for 40 secs. After this, it starts over from beginning. And, as for the delay settings, it can reach 6.4 seconds. Which means, if you play a note, that note can be repeated from 0 to 6.4 secs after you play it depending on how you set it up.

    By the way, there's no 'hold' mode in dd-3.

  • nice work.

    so it has no limit on the amount of loops you can layer?

  • @superflea72 i'm not sure..i believe it has but, as you can hear, it seems to have a large limit for short layers

  • so you cant use the delay functions while looping?

  • Wow man, awesome sounds!

  • Woww.... such an amazing job! I love it... not only because you played a song that I love, Silly Love Songs, but also because you made me decide what delay pedal to buy :)

  • best cover ever

  • The VERY BEST DEMO YET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @gfmgma Am i able to do the same thing in a DD-6?

  • Once you start recording, say 8 bars, does it stay in a 8 bar loop? Is it possible to strum just one bar initially, say a muffled quarter note rhythm, then overdub 4 bars, then 2 bars?

  • Hey man, can you control the volume of the loop?

  • @razzamanaz79 Because when you are making an album lots of ideas get left on the floor. If he wasn't so great why did Gilmore tour with him? Can you answer that?

  • Is it possible for the Boss DD-6 to exemplify all of the capabilities of the DD-7, or does it lack the hold function?
