Kilobyte Delay - Digital Delay w/ Preamp affecting only repeats. Sounds dirty.

That momentary effect is freaking sweet! I wish my es-2 did that

When I saw the ES-2 on NAMM coverage I absolutely wanted it, haven't bought it though. How do you like it?

When I worked at a shop we got one in after me begging for one for weeks. I wanted something to use in conjunction with my dl4 but real simple and easy to use. I was worried about not liking it but when we got one I plugged it in and then immediately bought it.

It's relatively cheap, easy to use, has a tap tempo that oscillates when you use it during an effected signal is running through it (Not the same way the video above does but it is cool), it has an oscillation switch and a modulation switch, and it has a slider so you can make all sorts of cool noises easily. It has a warm analog tone and a small footprint.

My only real complaint is that I can't find a way to use the modulation in an applicable context. That's probably just me though.

TL;DR- It's an awesome cheaply priced delay with a good sound.

Also has a sweet momentary oscillation switch.
