boss announce a new delay pedal



  This is what I found today:
  BOSS ANNOUNCES THE DD-7  12/03/2008
  Boss announces the newest pedal in the best-selling DD-range. Building 
on 
the tried-and-tested features from its predecessors, the DD-7 considerably 
expands the creative potential with a number of practical and inspiring 
features.
  With up to 6.4 seconds of delay time, the DD-7 features a marked 
increase 
on its predecessor. In addition, a newly-developed Hold mode allows up to 
40 
seconds of input to be recorded for creating atmospheric "sound-on-sound" 
performances.
  The DD-7 is also equipped with two innovative new delay modes. 
Modulation 
Delay provides chorus-flavoured sounds, while Analogue Delay offers a 
modelled simulation of the classic Boss DM-2, beloved by guitarists 
everywhere for its characteristic warmth.
  For hands-free control, an external footswitch and expression pedal 
(sold 
separately) can be used. Tap tempo rates can be controlled from the 
external 
footswitch, while delay time, feedback, and effect level can be changed on 
the fly via an expression pedal.
  The DD-7's stereo output can create some amazing effects, such as 
spatial 
audio sweeps with true stereo panning. The stereo outputs can even be 
configured as separate dry and wet signal paths - handy for recording and 
live-performance control. Finally, the legendary Boss build quality and 
reliability that has seen sales exceed 10 million pedals globally comes as 
standard.
  DD-7 at a glance
  . Expanded delay time, up to 6.4 seconds
  . Modulation Delay mode offers natural, chorus-type sounds
  . Analogue Delay mode models the classic warm Boss DM-2 analogue delay 
sound
  . Tap tempo controllable via external footswitch
  . Delay time, feedback, and effect level can be controlled via external 
expression pedal (sold separately)
  . Up to 40 seconds of recording for sound-on-sound (Hold mode) 
performances

  This Hold mode can be interesting combined with the FB settings and it's 
stereo.
  I'll keep an eye on this.
  Ben.
