Title: Delay blindtest - Dirtbag Deluxe , DMM, Memory toy, Echobase Videos added
Post by: djaaz on February 19, 2012, 11:20:18 PM
My first attempt at some video demo. You will excuse me and my french accent when i speak this "sunday, midnight" english.



The rig i used, 4 samples and a game:

Can you recognize the pedals from the 4 samples here:

Sample 1 (http://djaaz.free.fr/delaysamples/sample1.mp3)
Sample 2 (http://djaaz.free.fr/delaysamples/sample2.mp3)
Sample 3 (http://djaaz.free.fr/delaysamples/sample3.mp3)
Sample 4 (http://djaaz.free.fr/delaysamples/sample4.mp3)

This is not a fair game, i cheated a bit here and there, but it should still be easy.

The response in video:




More videos from the same night:

I'm lazy and i cheat from time to time. That is true.

Should i wait for some more opinions or do you guys think it's enough?

I would guess echobase for the first one as well. The others not so sure. I actually liked the first one the most.

I'm liking this.
I forgot to mention on the video that Memory toy have four of these xx3208 in there while DMM & DD are MN3005.
EchoBase is PT2399.

Working on the video, it's gonna be a tough job.
I forgot about the guitarist while setting up the camera (and some of you already guessed from the samples that i forgot about the guitarist while grabbing my guitar) so i'm standing in the way of the pedals when i play with the knobs.
I improvised 25 minutes, so there's some cleaning to do.

We're all cheaters...

I just thought of the way I would turn the pedals on and off in the order he had them set up in order to try and 'fool' us. That and I thought that's the way they sounded fo real.

Nice ambient playing! In fact, you make them all sound good. I would guess the following:

1. Echo Base
2. Dirtbag
3. Memory Toy
4. DMM

Aaargh, the more I listen to it, the more I'm doubting my choices! I'm sticking to them though...

I've been struggling with a video editing software without much success. I tried to sync the recorded audio part with the video but could not do it.
For now, the audio is recorded from the cam directly to answer this blindtest quizz.

As scruffie guessed the first time, the samples are in the order of the video.
So:

1. Echo base
2. Deluxe Memory Man
3. Dirtbag
4. Memory toy.





I find it very interesting and put and end, at least for myself, to the MN3005 mojo legend.

All pedals are serial from guitar to amp. IMHO, DMM & Dirtbag are way better in the fx loop of the amp.

Damn! You should have posted this on TGP first. I wonder if everyone there would go out and buy a Memory Toy all of a sudden. :P
