And I've finally given up.
I love this unit. It does so many things so so well. Even if it didn't even have delays, I would still own it.
But there's no telling how many hours I've spent staring into the green light trying to dial in a delay sound I don't hate, wondering why it doesn't sound good.
I've finally realized why. It's the Mix control.
When I put the delay block before the amp, the first repeat is always ridiculously loud no matter how low the mix control is. It doesn't matter where I set the feedback. Makes it totally unusable. No matter where I have the mix, the first repeat always ends up being quite loud with the rest being unheard. I have tried tons of settings and nothing works.
When the delay is after the amp, it seems that I only get strong repeats on very high settings. And once I get the repeats how I want them, it turns out I have set the mix to like 70% and my repeats are louder than my signal. So this placement is even more unusable than the other one.
This isn't a "help me" thread. I've made dozens of those in the past. I guess I just hate the way this unit's delay mix is set.
