Reiterator Analog Delay. Dual Aqua Boy boards built into a Pedal Parts Plus Psycho Green Vein 1790NS. I used the Cool Audio chips. I set the right side up for shorter slapback and the left side for a longer ambient delay. It sounds great. I love the way the echos dissipate and liquify into the background.

Thanks all! :)

I got the grounding bus idea from something Jack Orman posted somewhere. I was looking for a better way to do grounding on these dual pedal builds with lots of connections. I was connecting them all to the input jack before and things were just getting really spaghetti like. This way worked out really well. You just have to plan for some space for the bus wire when you do the enclosure layout.

P.S. - I'll try to do a demo vid sometime in the next few days.

That's awesome! I bet that thing sounds out of this world. I could totally use something like this with the option of going between short and long delays. Or combining them for crazy delay patterns. Great job!

Here's that video demo I promised:



Yeah... I need spend less time building pedals and practice more.  :-[

That is an impressive sounding delay. I was waiting for the part with both delays on and so glad you added it in the end. So much flexibility and it appears like it has enough delay time for what I need.

Yeah. The thing totally rocks. I've been using an MXR Carbon Copy, but this sounds so much more alive. The effect is almost reverb-like. With the mix all the way up like I have it at the end of the clip it sounds similar to the reverse delay from the Boss PS-2, but much less tinny.

I keep listening to your demo cause its just soo good! You should seriously post it in the audio/video demo section. I've heard people use the bounce back from a delay pedal to get crazy synchoronous patterns. I'm talking about what your doing at 2:28. Never heard anyone do it like that..I gotta figure that out!
