    The demo gear in this video is all run through Practical Patch cables, including instrument cables and patch cables. These are using some top-quality components, including Neutrik jacks and Van Damme cable and are hand-assembled and tested in the UK. After having off-the-shelf cables for years and suffering failures again and again, I bought some Practical Patch cables and have been happier than ever with them. They also don’t cost you the Earth, which some other hand made cable companies seem to do. If you want to find out more, head over to www.practicalpatch.co.uk to see what they have to offer.

    I actually think that this pedal is the cheapest option with the most Delay/Reverb features (from what I've seen anyway) Another great demo dude. When window shopping a million items like a mad lad, Your gear demo's are exactly what I need, straight to the tones and no extra fluff. Thank you mate.

    The digital chips used in the oldest Strymon gear are now 12 years and 3 generations old. More than good enough for serious pro sound but are now cheap enough to make pedals like the Sonicake. Anything more than this is more features not a better sound. Add to that if used for an always on sound just like one does with a Fender with a spring Reverb you simply never need more. In short a serious Pro product for $50

      I bought one off Amazon and will use it to get the rockabilly sound. I'm running it off an old Crate BX-100 bass amp with equilizer and this pedal is a cheaper alternative then buying a separate reverb and delay pedal. I'm a drummer but I dabble in guitar this last year. I'm hoping it goes well for me.

    My daughter is getting into music and has been building some pedals with me lately. There's not a lot of DIY options for reverb out there, so I think I'm going to grab this for the small board I'm building for her. Should sound cool with the Klon, OCD and OD-1 we built!

    • @BudgetPedalChap
      @BudgetPedalChap  2 месяца назад +1

      Yeah, drive and fuzz are pretty simple to make where the modulations and time based stuff is way more involved. When you've got options like this at a great price, it's hard not to 👍 sounds like an amazing project and great bonding moment

      @@BudgetPedalChap for sure! Even if we built a delay and reverb with one of the available PCBs, it would still cost 2x the price of this and take up more space on the board. This seems like a great low-budget option!

    1:43 If you want looooong delay time, try the Joyo/Harley Benton D-Seed (the first one, not nr 2), using the tap function it can delay up to 6 seconds. I tried it, If anything sounds weird it's a 6 seconds delay 🤣🤣
