Hey Chamai, this might be worth a look (https://www.rolandcorp.com.au/blog/the-roland-re-201-space-echo-story) scroll down BTW  :dunno: but it's a pedal.

Or (not current but awesome) http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/ADA-S1000-One-Second-Digital-Delay-/141965165442

   I have a bunch of those one-trick ponies, and they are definitely awesome. So are the Digitizer 4's and the i series delays.

sorry for the late response.
i thought we don't use pedals here on adadepot, come on!

the roland is a pretty cool piece. but it's very old school 70's analog sounding. i want overly process delay that can do a lot of BS such as the swell delay. for delays and reverb, i only like digital.

BUT for short reverb just to give each note a bit of a tail, i like a good spring reverb. that's when my good old fostex 3180 kicks in.

Hey Chamai,

    The S-1000 is a rackmount delay and is digital, up to 1 second, (1028 ms). That will do what you want, so will the Digitizer 4 which is the model that replaced the S-1000. Of course, you can store up to 16 of your favorite settings in the D4, as opposed to the S-1000 which is a one-trick pony. You have to dial in every effect on the S-1000, but it does them very well.

Hey Harley, which is your favorite , the S1000 or the D4?

Harley Hexxe

Hey MJMP,

     That's a hard question. The S1000 was the first ADA delay I ever owned, and the one that I dialed in all my favorite Chorus, Flange, and Delay effects from my favorite guitar players at the time. I own a bunch of them because they are only a one-trick pony, so each is set to a different effect.
     The D4 is cool because you can store these effects in it and recall them as you need them, but only if you have the DS-4 footswitch with it. Otherwise, you're going to the front panel of the Delay and pressing buttons.
     I'm looking at another D4 on evil bay right now.

Well I like the D4 best since it's stereo. It also sounds a bit better

Harley Hexxe

Stereo???   The connections are exactly the same as the S1000 :o

There is some very good info regarding ADA Delays going in here; I won't Split this Topic just yet, but let's please try to steer this back a little closer to the original topic.  :thumb-up:

Well the G.A.S. bug is biting me hard here....
    On top of everything else I'm looking at, I just found an email offering me an ADA 2.56i, just as I was about to pull the trigger on another D4 with a foot switch!

    Which way do I go with this? I've wanted a 2.56i for a long time since there were times when I wanted to get just a little bit more time out of my S-1000's, and it just wasn't there.
    Of course it would be a good thing to have a pair of D4's operating with my Classic, in the new RMC cases I'm having built...

      What the hell, it's payday...get BOTH!!! :lol:

Pulled the trigger on the D4, made the offer on the 256i.

     There it is :ada-big:

Nope the D4 has 2 outputs and it has one out more then the S1000. 100% sure of it.

Harley Hexxe

Hey MJMP,

     I'll go look at that tomorrow. I have another D4/DS4 on the way, and I just bought a 2.56i.
     The D4 will go in the rack head with the Classic, and the 2.56i will go in the big rack with the MP-1/3TM rig.
     This should be fun

     Check your email :thumb-up:
