have you noticed a difference in how noisy the pedal is on the 'short' delay setting versus when on the 'long' delay setting?

which is noisier?

There is a difference, not it noise though in my opinion. The long delay is a fair bit more lo-fi though. Hard for me to describe since this is my first analog delay.

Hope that helps.

got my hands on an sd recently. not really sure what you mean by "noisy." it gets more lo-fi/darker/loses more hi end/whatever in the long setting than the short like opeth_669 said. i haven't even been messing around with it for a whole week yet though so i might find something else down the line

I can't hear any difference in quality. I do agree that the tone seems to have less high end after about the second mark, not that there is ever much high end anyway, but enough to notice a small difference. It doesn't sound decimated, just slightly muffled maybe would be the best way I could put it. hope this helps.

so after playing with the sd some more (and playing with my amp up a lot higher) i've noticed some "noise" with the pedal. it's in both the long and short settings. easiest way to describe it is that when the mix is 100% dry there's no noise and when i start to add the wet signal a low static type of sound appears (more noticeable when no audio is going into the pedal). sounds like kind of like radio static/white noise

in the long setting, the subsequent repeats get more of this static-y, noise-y quality to them then in the short mode. the static kinda of surrounds or envelopes the notes, right before and after the note repeats. i assume that the sound is just part of an analog delay though.


any body else notice this too (particularly when you turn the "mix" up to include the wet signal)?

Ah, yes, the lovely sound of analog BBD delay.
