Bloc Party - Octopus guitar lesson - Riff Of The Month

[@willminnock]

It's obviously not something that will appeal to purists but I think that it's a great, well-thought-out, imaginative riff.

Very nice, now i know the tabs :p I'm using the Line 6 Delay modeler for this riff. I do prefer setting the delay so that it repeats endlessly.

Does anyone know how to route the two delays into the line selector?

***** In Truth video (live) Russell uses a delay pedal, but he also uses a moded boss he is taping everytime he hits a chord. do you know what is this moded pedal and what it does? I have a dd-6, dd-7, ehx mm hazarai, and a flashback delay, and none of them plays as clean as the video. With mine is like the repeat of every chord is playing at the backgroungd, so it gets really heavy when playing all the song, but in this video you can listen clean repeats every time he taps this moded pedal. Sorry for my english. Bloc Party perform "Truth" in Studio Q

I'm thinking about buying a boss dd-7 digital delay but would the fast delay be obtainable on the dd-7?

[@JackSplatP]

Yes. However, bear in mind that if you are using a DD-7, you *need* a line selector as shown in this video. If you use two DD-3'/5s, then you don't :)

I see on the Hazari you're using multi tap mode. Is it possible to get the same sound on a standard digital delay such as the boss dd-7?
