hi there,not much people use DOD nowadays.offers for DOD will most likely be turned down as the popularity of other brands rise.

here's my review on this decent delay pedal which i think is under rated.

DOD DFX91 DIGITAL DELAY/SAMPLER:

yes this delay pedal i recommend to beginners like me who just want a simple delay that does its job.beginners like me seek cheap but good pedals and sometimes that can be hard to find.i got this delay pedal from ebenex and it feels like a boss dd-3.with a reverb,hold function and of course the delay itself is pretty much what this pedal offers.setting for the amount of delay and delay time can be adjusted too.

the bad part about this pedal is which goes for most DOD pedals is that it sucks the life of your batts(if you're using them of course).you could probably kill your batt with this pedal in just one gig.and the power adaptor input is unlike other pedal brands.it uses 3.5mm jacks(according to this g77 dude i asked) input.to overcome this problem i just use a 1 spot battery clip attached to the daisy chain.also this pedal only can do so much.it cant give that flexibility for experimental users out there.

positives
1)cheap
2)does its job
3)user-friendly

negatives
1)for experimental sounds,the dfx91 cant go any further then what its supposed to do
2)input for adaptor is diff from other pedal brands
3)drains batt life fast

this pedal i'd give it an 8 out of ten.for me this pedal is good enough and is cheap.i'd learn the basics of delays before moving on to more complex delay pedals.good for beginners!
 
Also - the footswitch is pathetic, fragile and unreliable.

The delay tone also leaves much to be desired - sounds bland and un-inspiring but definitely functional.

I would think the old DOD analog delays are fantastic value...
 
how much would you give this pedal?

yeah i agree about the footswitch part.i prefer boss pedals.its in the springs yo!
 
heh, you guys got to check out our locale nosician, mindf.u.c.kingboy! He uses couple of dod pedals chained together and the harshness is heavy as hell and one of a kind. He, is my idol!

Hello Dinky, appreciate you taking your time with the review.

Just wondering if you want give a breakdown of the different functions?

Like the reverb? Delay and the Sampling?
like how many seconds, sonic attributes or user frenlyness

I think it'll probably be of more help to those interested.
 
hmm this is to my experiences.

the sampling it has two modes but i haven't quite figure it out yet how to use it.i only managed to store what i play in the "sample" mode then press the pedal again to hear it play.hahaha hard to explain uh about that.

the reverb thingy.if you've watched them delay demos on youtube,there's bound to be some reverb action which they'll show you.they'll probably play some country beats.well thats what it does.in this reverb mode,it does it job well no doubt about that.

the delay mode goes up to if im not wrong 2 secs.there's a knob for the amount of repeats within the time and the delay can be speed up or slowed down.wait i think its 1 sec.nonetheless this pedal gives decent delay,reverb and if you mastered the sampling part.beginners choice i guess.

not forgetting the hold mode which boss also has in their delay.i repeat this delay is good for beginners looking for delay that does its job but for those who are experimental and wanna go longer than what the DFX91 can,then there's other brands out there dudes.

i dont know if this review is helpful or not.im a newbie dudes!i love experimenting with new things and this are my findings regarding the DFX91.
 
Its 1 sec max.

No reverb per se but it cops a "reverb"-like tone when you set the delay time accordingly.

Btw, regarding your 1st reply to my earlier post, which I missed, I'd say... $80 bucks? $60?
 
haha shred not the price laaaaa.i mean rating.
ya i checked it was 1 second.kinda confusing that djutsing the amt of delays
seem like as if its longer.maybe its just me.
