This is truly a classic delay pedal. There's no wonder it shows up on many pro boards. This pedals niche is the sub-divisions and the jack for the external tap tempo. It can be set for quarter notes, dotted eighth notes, etc. Compared to the Boss DD-7, the DD-5 has stronger and slightly warmer, more natural sounding repeats. The DD-5 has a bit more noise, especially when run with an overdrive pedal, and you have to tap 4 times to set the tempo versus only twice for the DD-7. The DD-7 has a few more options than the DD-5, but it's obvious that the DD-7's design was strongly influenced by the classic DD-5. If you are looking for a delay pedal to get some good U2 type sounds, or for ambient repeats that you can easily sync to the tempo of the song, then you really can't go wrong with either pedal.Read full review
if you just want exact repeats with tap tempo (ext pedal required), this is the ticket. analog has its place, but so do digital delays. can't go wrong with this one.

I have owned all kinds of delay pedals. This is as good as any I've owned that Don't have "ducking" delay setting. That is , the delay level decreases during fast runs, greatly enhancing clarity. While this pedal does not have that feature, I really like the fact that you can connect a momentary footswitch to the the temo jack and tap the tempo. Great feature and very useful! Very good bang for the buck!!
It's a great pedal with great tone. What's not to leave. The tones speak for themselves. It's easy to use and you can pretty much use any after market tap tempo switch with it. I picked up a sweet one from analog endeavors to go with it.
Started use D.D second generation back in the mid 80's. You can go from slap back echo to I am the lord of darkness in a few quick setting.
