I know it was mentioned previously by someone else, but here's another link to Yamaha's new delay unit http://namm.harmony-central.com/WNAMM02/Content/Yamaha/PR/UD-Stomp.html that was introduced at NAMM. Based on the 4 footswitches, and relative simplicity of the control layout, I was quick to assume this was Yamaha's answer to the Line6 DL4. However after just having read the manual available at www.yamahaguitars.com I realize that for better or worse, this is one complex box. Definitely not the plug-in-and-play device that the DL4 is. The manual is a very dry read, and after having been through it a couple of times I'm still trying to get my head around it. And this is after having spent 10 years with a TC 2290. I suppose for those just looking for a "DL4 with user presets and MIDI", this will be a disappointingly user-unfriendly device. For those looking for lots of tweaking and knob-twiddling potential, I suppose this box will be of serious interest. Either way, there seem to be some interesting concepts at work. I wish it was a little more intuitive though. Anybody else looked at this thing?
