The Modulation mode adds a layer of the chorus on each of the repeats and is a lovely filter. Analog and Tape delay add a various amount of decay to the signal to produce that over-spilled bucket brigade feels for a dense but subtle warm distortion. It offers 7 modes of delay effects which we will get into in a second and 3 function controls we are familiar with which are of course Mix for control over the dry/wet level, Time to set the delay period and Feedback to surprise surprise, control the amount of feedback.ĭigital mode takes a single clean signal and repeats it until it decays. However this digital delay pedal from Donner really does the company some justice that goes towards raising their reputation. The Boss DD-7 digital delay pedal can also function with tap tempo via an external pedal (not included), a feature we were first introduced to on their DD-5 model but was removed on the DD-6 causing some upset, so we are glad to see it back along with the new modes.Īnother advantage of the Boss DD-7 digital delay guitar effect pedal is the stereo output function which creates separate dry and wet signal paths and enables superb spatial sweeps with the stereo panning.Īs unbiased as we try to stay we are on occasion tough on the cheaper pedals, especially when they try to pass their digital for analog because it really gets our goat. Delays can also be reversed creating cool effects.
Hold mode enables users to record up to 40 seconds of input to be layered for sound on sound loop style performance. The Boss DD-7 offers longer delay times to play with which has expanded up to 6.4 seconds. In addition to analog mode which pays tribute to previous model features, the Boss DD-7 digital delay pedal sports a fresh modulation delay mode which add colorful melodious chorus effects to the delay. They have truly taken the best of their legacy products and packed them into one hell of a stomp-box. Their new DD-7 is their freshest delay incarnation which incorporates modeling which simulates the beloved DM-2 / DM-3. They are a forward thinking company and push constant innovative development.
It is probably no surprise we are starting our reviews with a top entry from BOSS, manufacturers of a multitude of critically acclaimed effects pedals of all time.
