Welp I’m down to three delay pedals! *modelers excluded*

[AFKAEjay(retired)]

Oh my gosh… The Halo!
You guys are right likely about that one. Dang it.

I just knew something would come up!

Sorry
There is an affordable version available I think.

And…I think you also own modelers…many have tried to emulate one on just about ever modeler and posted YT video’s on it.
I vaguely remember fractal even has a preset called Halo? Kemper has a vid on it on their official if I’m correct.

There's no spillover when you change presets, but there is spillover when you bypass. If that matters to you.

I was going to say probably not but I've only just realised you can only run one delay at a time. Because the collider can run a delay and reverb I had assumed the nemesis and the ventris can run two delays or reverbs at once. I like to layer delays when I use my Helix. It's one of the things putting me off the belle epoch. Having spill-over when you bypass is good though.

My faves are the Keeley Halo, El Capistan, and Pigtronix Echolution 3.

I have the Echolution 3 on the chopping block due to a volume drop when in the chain… on or off.

Do you have this issue? Did you resolve it?

If I can figure that out… I’ll def keep it as I love the sounds and it’s tiny for what it does.

I haven't really noticed it, but I've only used it in my new TK Imperial preamp + Badlander combo rig.

I'm adding MIDI control to that rig via the Luminite Gravitron M2 this weekend, so I'll have a more informed response for you in a couple of days.

It certainly packs a lot of great sounds into a small, well built package. Using MIDI to control it opens up even more features like the bitcrusher mode.

Yeah this is why I'm thinking of putting the DD500 and Nemesis on the board. But tbh, I've been moving away from stacking delays lately. So maybe not.

I forgot to include my pair of Eventide H9s.

I don't do it all the time but it is something I got used to with my Helix and am missing with my deep blue delay and dm2. I can do it but it's more of a pain to setup in the analogue world.

I had the collider once and if I remember correctly it could run two delays or two reverbs or just delay and reverb in any order.

I have 4; Halo, 2290p, SDD-3000 pedal and a Memory Lane JR.
Past FX has a DM-2-ish pedal on the way, got to check it out, I enjoy the DM-2 in the Fractal.

 

[david57strat]

I kind of hate delay. I’m a reverb guy.

I love a nice stereo reverb pedal, but I guess I like delay pedals more. I seem to have about 50% more delays than reverbs, spread over multiple boards.

Yeah the collider would do everything I really want but I'd like access to some of the more oddball delay engines. I'm also pretty sure I'm going to grab a UA Golden for my reverb. I'm either going to grab a nemesis adt, dd500 or if I decide that I want simple like the golden then I'll grab a belle epoch deluxe.

If you do check and out and notice it please let me know. Keep everything the same and then remove it… I notice a6-9db drop or more.

Doesn’t seem to affect tone though! I was thinking it’s an instrument versus line setting. Maybe it’s available in midi.

Are you running it in front of your amp or in the fx loop?

In front of a clean amp. I use a dirt pedal in to the E3 in to the amp.

Consistent significant volume drop by adding it. Goes away if I pull it.

I’ve tried a factory reset and all boot options. I even tried using an Echolution 2 editor but it didn’t work. I found no editor or firmware.

I just sent a message to Pigtronix support.

Weird… hope they respond. A factory reset should reset every possible setting and hidden settings.

Today I decided to grab the Source Audio Nemesis ADT - coz I've been very curious!!

Have you seen this yet @Orvillain? They've updated the neuro app allowing you to preview any preset in any one series pedal with a bunch of prerecorded bass and guitar tracks. You can even edit the presets and hear the results in real time. It looks pretty cool.

Edit-- looks like there's Synth clips as well as guitar tracks. I wonder if they're working on some plugins?

 

[KingsXJJ]

Pigtronix did reply to my inquiry. They asked a few of the expected questions and are researching. I’ll post how it goes in case this issue is present for others.

 

[KingsXJJ]

I must admit that the more I look at it, the more tempting the Halo looks. Interestingly enough the Echolution 3 has a halo mode available via midi. Along with a load of other functionality. This unit could have really benefited from an editor that accessed everything. It’s a lot of wasted potential without midi.

Wtf… when I had the collider their software was a pita
