okay, let me just qualify this review by stating that I did actually get it when MF was blowing these out for 35 bux or so. That being said, it's probably the best 35 bux I've spent in the studio! Crazy versatile for my needs. I mainly purchased it because I sold all my hardware delays a while back and was looking for some good 'ol echo action that the apps/plugins/pedals I normally use pretty much sucked at providing in real time. I pretty much have the unit permanently attached to an effects send on the mixer and since it's a stereo box , I still have a free in/out to randomly plug into. I thought the ios thing might be a little clunky but I really don't mind as I rarely switch up the fx and when i do it only takes about 30 seconds. This is integration done the right way IMO, a standalone box with its own power supply, processing hardware, interface, etc-I can't stress enough the advantage of offloading the effects to an external unit with realtime control. this is basically like, 50 pedals in one. I actually recorded a track using the box itself as an instrument utilizing the old feedback trick wherein you just patch the out into the input and tweak knobs. There are also tons of choruses , phasers,flangers,reverbs,distortions, etc. but for me the basic delay is the tops-haven't changed it in about 3-4 months, actually but less than the price of most halfway decent pedals I got 50! Very useful , awesome pedal.
