Re: urgent question-- DL4 vs. echo pro??

It happens to be one of my favorite all time delay
sounds.  I've never heard it anywhere else, except
during the old films they showed us in grade school. 
It sounds exactly like a the audio track of a cheap
film slipping and sliding along the play-heads of an
institutional film projector.

Aside from what everyone else is mentioning, this
sound, to me, makes the Echo Pro worth it.  The thing
is, though, if you don't have a rack, it wouldn't be
convenient to add a rack item to your rig, unless, of
course, you believe "you have to start sometime."
