Man do you really carry all this set up on live gigs? PAIN!!

[u2john316]

@kostasssism Yeah but you get a great workout carrying it to gigs :)) Actually this is no longer my live rig. It's smaller now :)

[diegofr90]

The thing is... why don't you even consider the DL4?! I'm about to purchase my first "expensive" delay. For a vintage delay, u2ish kind of sound, it's the boss dd20 better option? Or should i get the dl4 since the edge uses it?

[u2john316]

@diegofr90 The DL4 doesn't have an ms or BPM read out, nor does it have pre-set numbers. Not very practical IMHO especially for Live use...

i think u r the edge

[u2john316]

@galiddnomyar Playing a herdim (blue) plectrum upside down gives you that Chimey sound. Fresh strings also helps.

[NishDesai63]

hi what are your settings for the dd20 while playing streets?

[TurboTTV]

@kostasssism in all reality thats not a whole lot of gear. My rig is what i consider small and its about the same size.

Hey Jesus. 

[MrDeepfriedpizza]

@Jooiie Spend the little bit extra and just get the full on nova delay. I LOVE mine. Favorite pedal on my board. Thinking about another one too.

[spicecrop]

Will you do a lesson on how to play the entire song please. your the only person I've heard do it right besides the Edge

[spicecrop]

@01325572358 Don't you see the amp behind him that says VOX on it? pretty sure the U2 guy is using a VOX

[RipzMan24]

Do you think it'd be worth to sell my Boss SD-1, DS-1 and the BCB-30 to get some cash for the TC Nova Delay?

[Darkinners]

nice shoot out!!

I personally like TC2209 and Timefactor in your shootout.

Timefactor surprisingly has very very close quality to the TC2209 and much cheaper.

I was going to buy iB modified Nova Delay but now I guess I am gonna get Timefactor instead, really impressed.

If the Boss not that thin sounding, would be a great device too , it has the great dynamic just sound too thin.

ah got me a carbon copy- mxr, does the job pretty damn fine!

[Rundm3p]

@diegofr90 edge uses it? mmm dont think so....he was seen using it once..thats all...but his famous dotted eight delay surley doesn´t comes from dl4...
