Hi guys
I would like to ask to any more-expert-than-me user of this wonderful machine a suggestion for the best delay i can use in combination with the SUB-37.
An option that will probably influence my choice is the presence of a looper.
These models are the ones i've already selected :
- Moogerfooger MF-104M (Actually too expensive for me but amazing specs)
- Strymoon Timeline (Actually my favourite choice : true analog bypass with 30sec of hi-quality looper)
- Eventide Timefactor (True analog bypass with 12sec of hi-quality looper or 45sec in quarter quality)
- Pigtronix Echolution 2 Deluxe (No true bypass and no looper)
Please help! Thank you in advance!

minifooger MF delay! sounds just like the 104 and a fraction of the cost!

With my 1973 Minimoog I get a wonderfully lush sound using a 30+ year old Yamaha E1010 Analog delay as well as a new Seymour Duncan Vapor Trail. Both are reasonably priced - especially the current Vapor Trail.
I like how both have modulation controls and how the Vapor Trail allows you to put an effect in the echo loop.

I would sugest the BugBrand PTDelay. Super playable, and it sounds fantastic. I like it a lot more than my MF-104M
Get it quick while he still has them in stock.

Strymoon Timeline is amazing! It's certainly not your ordinary delay effect, but much more... endless fun. The only drawback -- if you get Timeline, you'll want to get BigSky

Take a look at TC Electronic Flashback X4 too. MIDI sync, looper and an editor software for computer and mobile devices.

Also, the Strymon El Capistan is a wonderful mid priced unit.

That's what I use too and you won't be disappointed given the reasonable price

Sorry, for me it would look like driving a ferrari with a trailer full of waste
Using these kind off BBD delays (especially the PT23.. series), one don't need such an noble sounding synth like the sub37.
justmy2cents ...
As this is my first posting, I want to say a cordially 'hello' to all folks at this forum.
I at first used a pigtronix 2 deluxe, but sent it back because of its sound. It was never a pure sound, but always with cutted high frequencies even if the filter was bypassed. It also had some digital artefacts.
I bought the new Korg SDD3000, which I'm very happy with at my Sub37 (in combination with a TC HallOfFame).
For another synth (NL3) I first bought a TC flashback X4, but it has no MIDI parameter control, so I swapped it with the Strymon Timeline, which ist superb and also a great suggestion for the Sub37.
cheers,
Bernard

Digital though...
I'm also looking for a delay.. Im thinking either the smaller Moog one or Vapor Trails, anyone got experience with both?

no, no midi on the Mf-delay. However, it's easier then you would think to find that sweet spot. And better still; most slightly off beat repeats are the funkiest! You will never find those with a sync'd delay..

I'm using a TC Electronic Flashback Mini Delay and an old Ibanez Soundtank DL5. The latter is not manufactured anymore, but the Flashback Mini sounds great and wasn't expensive at all.
There is also a Lexicon MX300 that I'm using for reverb on my mixer, but it also has a decent Tape Delay. Maybe worth taking a look at if you are going to need some more effects anyway. Also, it can be synched via MIDI.
