I See Why These Are Getting Expensive! | Digitech DL-8 Hardwire Series Delay / Looper

[@dxfordummies]

I bought a bunch of these hardwires for 60 bucks about 3 years ago.

[@pcbullets8726]

I like the versatility of this pedal. I'll have to snag one of these. Thanks Robert!

[@echopark78]

I have the reverb and the chorus they are absolutely amazing!!! With the boxes cause I was a dealer and kept the display!!!

[@Tomalo-Dub]

Used one of these not too long ago, in a studio. Perhaps it was the placebo effect of being excited in there , but this things "analog" mode sounds delightful. I just pulled the trigger on one of the cheaper ones off of reverb for about $110

[@lostreb]

Thank you for another great review!!! Love the T-Shirt, too!!! Please keep up the great work!!!

[@timothyplonk6881]

Great video with some fine guitar licks. I really liked the tone of the Hardwire Distortion---it did not sound like a large bee hive. I'm going to buy these two pedals. Thanks Robert ! Great opener brother!!! 🎸🎸

[@richardmerriam7044]

I've had a Digitech BP-50 bass pedal for many years. Damn good pedal for the price, and the 'Arena' reverb set to about '3' is very convincing.

[@EasyHeat]

Digitech and DOD were doing absolutely amazing things during this era IMO. Great demo my dude!

[@RobertWJackson]

The DOD brand was still on the shelf at the time the Hardwire series was out. It was Tom Cram who revived it when he took over the division shortly after this era.

[@ramon4545]

Robert I have been picking up these pedals left and right I have decided to make a pedalboard with only hardwire pedals. I have been so impressed with this whole line.

[@RobertWJackson]

They’re pretty awesome pedals, dude. I’ve slowly been trying to acquire the rest of the line, also. It’s too bad they didn’t sell better than they did when they were still in production.

[@ramon4545]

@@RobertWJackson I agree completely it’s crazy when you look at the old forums and read how they didn’t get the respect or recognition that they deserved even in some calling the hardwire line sup par. It may have taken a while but they are finally getting their due. The only down side is that they keep going higher and higher In price now lol.

[@Charles75N]

Thank you Robert excellent as always.

[@johnwetmore5951]

Awesome video. You're intro songs and playing keep getting better and better. Great pedal. Smash the like👍

[@RobertWJackson]

Thanks man!

[@mikegutterman3427]

it is a great pedal, like all of the Hardwire series. But it absolutely is not analog. Completely digital but it does have an analog dry signal so no digitizing your original non-effected signal. Also, the ability to select true bypass or buffered bypass with trails was a great feature.

[@edwardmccoy343]

Good video, Robert. Fine guitar playing also. Rhythm and lead. I have 2 or 3 Digitech pedals, but none of the hard-wired series.

[@budgetguitarist]

I love that beautiful guitar! Damn. Also, this seems like a cool pedal that'd be fun to play with.

[@twenty3electronics]

I sold it because the clean portion of the sound is colored while the pedal is active. The effect itself is decent, but not at the expense of my core tone.

[@BlackmoreDavid]

You can select true bypass mode.

[@twenty3electronics]

@@BlackmoreDavid that doesn’t change the dry portion of the sound when the pedal is on

[@jonesthedeaddd8724]

The jams are on point!!!

[@nathanieldeclarador1466]

Dear Dungeon, My pedal order is as such from amp to guitar: Amp, spark tb, equalizer, tube screamer, donner blues drive, guitar. Any thoughts about the order ? Thanks .

[@RobertWJackson]

Nope. That’s how I’d run them.

[@nathanieldeclarador1466]

@@RobertWJackson thank you!

[@THEQueeferSutherland]

That's a noice clean delay, I'd plug my saxophone into it

[@jamesda971]

If you look up redundant in the dictionary does it say "see redundant "

[@realledbetter5015]

No but if you look up loop, it says refer to loop.

[@howardcunniffe8738]

Is the meaning dictionary in the dictionary ? Just the front of the cover.

[@rondobondo6600]

Kinda like the boss reverb probably a lots cheaper.....

[@charliesox5397]

The Hardwire series were great

[@RobertWJackson]

Agreed.

[@rondobondo6600]

Good 🎸 jamming

[@RobertWJackson]

[@TheDistortionPrinciple]

It must have been awhile since I've been here. Your video and audio quality is wayyy different !

[@HH-js9ps]

It’s not analog. It’s got 8 seconds of delay in true stereo. Thats difficult to achieve with BBDs.

[@michaelmattson3515]

Dig the shirt.

[@beandipcartography]

I have 2 from the Hardwire series. I'm kicking myself for not buying more.

[@rondobondo6600]

Wazzup Mr Robert

[@christopherebeyrol4553]

I owned a hardwire tremolo. 7 modes and I couldn't get any correct sound out of it. Awful synthetic warmthless tone. it's one of the rare pedals I've sold back...this delay looks better though.

[@RobertWJackson]

k

[@Tomalo-Dub]

I think tremolo is just one of those effects that doesn't lend itself well to pedals. I must have had the green boss tremolo 16 times over the course of my playing and could never get over the volume drop and tone. Its been a year since this comment, what tremolo pedals are you rocking?

[@andrewsorensen2316]

You didn't mention your feelings on Harman shutting down the DOD/Digitech brands. I don't know about you, but yes, I'm still bitter about that.

[@RobertWJackson]

RIGHT???

[@swamplifecontrol]

8 seconds of delay + it's ALL Analog ? ? ?

[@RobertWJackson]

👍🏼

[@dawnr8511]

Expensive or not, I still love my Source Audio Collider pedal compared to this toy.

[@RobertWJackson]

The Source Audio stuff is cool, but honestly it’s not for everybody, just like the Digitech stuff isn’t either.

[@stiiffyrabbit]

This pedal is not analog, stoopid! It's even got a simulated analog setting - processed digitaly.

Can I fart in your mouth?
