TASTE TEST! - All 45 flavors of delay & reverb from the Line 6 DL4-mkII

At Sweetwater: imp.i114863.ne...
At Thomann: www.thomannmus...
After 2 decades of the DL4 being one of Line 6's most iconic pedals they finally came out with a new version. AND IT IS AWESOME! I'm honestly feeling regret that I never owned the original because the mkii is a total blast off. I barely scratch the surface of what this pedal is capable of but I did show demonstrate a sample of every single flavor of delay and reverb in this monster of a pedal.

The point of pedal demos is to show us what different settings actually sound like. Thank you for the way in which you demonstrate pedals because you never over play during your videos and it gives us the opportunity to hear what’s actually happening.

[@allectocerebrum5462]

I was looking for this comment. First time I watched one of his videos but I appreciate the way he gave each setting some time and actually changed the adjustments on the settings. I will be checking out more of his stuff

Please don’t stop the “Two Princetons” gag.

[@elkbomb]

ADT stands for automatic double tracking, a studio technique used by the Beatles and others to simulate a doubled vocal, that's why there's only one repeat.

[@bumblefritz]

It's what they used for Clapton's guitar part in While My Guitar Gently Weeps as well.

[@ptrisonic]

I was /am a friend of the engineer who developed ADT at Abbey Road, Ken Townsend. Ryan, sorry I had a big D'oh moment when I heard your query about ADT.... Cheers, Pete.

[@elkbomb]

@@ptrisonic well salute to Ken Townsend!

[@ptrisonic]

@@elkbomb He also famously 'invented" the Flanger which consisted of two tape machines "locked" together (electronically} with the same recording on each. Then you pushed a digit or a thumb against one reel's flange add pressure , then release and repeat. Lennon called it Ken's Flanger. P

[@jrow78]

Awesome! I played the original DL4 for years so I'm so excited they made a new one! Seems great!

[@petergeo9446]

Now that’s a great review. Reminds me a little of the SA Nemesis delay. The mic input and reverbs are insane. Going to heaps of fun with some synth sounds.

[@soundethersinfo135]

For a sound designer it is a joy to meet such a pedal... Super nice!!

[@chrismillett]

The first two minutes is pure gold.

[@-dlb-]

Thank you for taking the time to go through so much.

[@docsponderings1515]

Thanks for all the effort this video took! Can't wait to get my hands on one of these!

[@beerbilly]

appreciate the run through on the reverbs. I love mine, its a keeper. I gave my old DL4 to my son, since he grew up with that always in the house.

[@SergeantSoldier.peacocks68]

That was a neat show. I may have to get one of those pedals.

[@austinjackson7185]

I know this is a late comment but there are approximately 1,350 possible combinations of sounds from this one pedal. All of that for not much over $300 is pretty great if you ask me.

[@TheBluesBox]

Personally I’m finding these things too complicated (having a simplicity drive at the moment) but here we are, you’ve drawn me in to watch it anyway! 🙂

[@luisgoregonzalez7394]

Look and sound beautiful!

[@caro_lam]

i basically have all these within the HX Stomp but i'm still super tempted by it. there's something so tactile about the physical unit and the way you can instantly and creatively manipulate everything that's really appealing

[@60CycleHumcast]

yeah, the HX stomp is awesome, but there is something about the physical interaction with the knobs, and the looper is a totally different beast. Also I hate menu dives when I'm actually playing with other musicians.

[@BParker55]

@@60CycleHumcast amen

[@jamiepatel5160]

Combine it with the hx stomp and it’s a good way to offload reverb/delay and free up some DSP on your stomp

Sub'd. Also, Line 6 will be happy to know that you single-handedly sold a unit for them. I can't wait to get my hands on this for guitar and synth.

[@markschuth8036]

You're in your element on this one. That glitch is bonkers.

[@mattrobert3990]

Loved that deep dive!

[@savanaviolenta]

Interesting how in almost same time Line 6 Dl4 mk2 is released along with Boss RE202 and RE2. Like the two companies had an agreement to launch their pedals in same time.But the line 6 seems to bethe more versatile pedal and with mic input is a no brainer.

[@60CycleHumcast]

Yeah they are very different products.

[@sassycat]

Some might call it a toy, I call it a great way to relax and have fun after a long stressful day. Worth $300.

[@keithadams1]

great video. you really did it. you seem like a nice dude. I have been learning the looper. its really powerful. you should do a deep dive just on that. the one shot function. how to use delay DURING looping (its not that obvious). I can explain...

[@thecisquatch]

You messing with the glitch setting may have sold me on this hahaha!

[@GG-ik6it]

Hopefully they re-release all the other ones too the purple one is a insane synth pedal, so cool though ryan!

[@60CycleHumcast]

its hard to imagine a reboot of all of them, some of those were not popular and it takes a ton of R&D to bring these products to market at a scale that makes sense... but you never know.

[@codyshaffer3962]

Enjoyed the fm4 until it crapped out on me. Don't know if I have enough faith to drop another 300 on a purple paperweight. I want this dl4 too, but I'm not sure where Line 6's quality control is these days.

[@afterstars]

I was literally thinking the exact same thing. I doubt they will though.

[@maseratination]

Lots of bells and whistles for sure if you need them. For me, I just ordered a Nocturne Mystery Brain BS-301.

Lol, I had to turn you down in my headphones about 30 seconds in, Ryan. Well done! Oh, and the looper in my old Pod HD500X (I still love and use this board as my main sound source) works the same way.

[@DJBuglip]

I was wondering how long it'd take before something started dripping. Whether or not you knew it, you started playing the intro to Bob's Party Time Lounge, by Primus, right after you mentioned that. 44:30

[@opiedrums6969]

1350 different combos. 🎉

[@teassea]

What I do when I find a setting I like, or when I create a song or riff in any particular setting, is take a quick snapshot of those settings with my camera, then record it with my phone for reference, and lastly archive both with the same title. Before I would do it the hard way and have to reverse engineer everything, which is way more work, and that runs the risk of scrapping the idea altogether.

[@tyleralben1071]

Only came to see if I should sell my Source Audio True Spring because this comes close enough to save the room on my board. I think I speak for everyone when I say we wanna hear your drippy preset.

[@peterschaefer1665]

Killer sounding unit but I at very least need the basic digital readout for the "time" parameter.

[@robertcaple5165]

It's a lot more than 45, as each of the 30 delays can be played on its own or paired with any of the 15 reverbs....so more like 480 flavors.

[@RobertFisher1969]

It was a good video! It’s funny: I have a note where I put down what I want from a looper and noted how every one fell short. My two knocks against the DL4 were: No mic input & only 14 sec of loop time. And they fixed both of those with the MkII! This may be my perfect looper. And it has 30 delays & 15 reverbs as a bonus. I’m also wondering if you set the time & repeats on the harmony delay, does it work as just a straight up smart harmony pedal?

ADT has to stand for Adult Delay Time because that was dirty!!!

I’m so frustrated I’m starting to sound like my dad, and that is a very scary thought. Is there a 60 Cycle Hum email I can get in touch with you about it? I don’t swim in the cesspool that is Facebook or Discord, or Twitter, or Tik Tok. I used your links to buy that shirt, and to get some stuff from Sweetwater. Anyway, any guidance would be appreciated.
