I really like the DD-20 as well,i am curious about the Eventide time factor though...if it does looping and delays without having to manually switch modes it might replace my DL4 and DD-20,having midi and being upgradable via usb is also a plus above all of the rest... but ok i know the price isnt;-) Luis --- mark sottilaro <zerocrossing2001@yahoo.com> wrote: > As I've sold off most of my dedicated hardware in > favor of Mobius software looping, I must say that I > kept my DD-20 Gigadelay.
