Product Description

The DL4 Delay Modeler offers you an incredible array of sounds, from a tube driven, tape loop echo (complete with adjustable wow and flutter), through 24 bit squeaky clean digital echo, to real-time reverse delay. Not only that, but you've got complete programmable control over all aspects of the sound in the studio and on the stage. Incredibly simple to use, it's an amazingly powerful tool offering you delay effects never before available in a single box. The DL4's digital modeling based on 15 of those vintage delay and echo effects you've always yearned for, and the Loop Sampler includes 14 seconds of memory + 800ms of Pre-delay (sort of a delay within a delay), and features half speed and/or reverse overdubbing, and more...

Great Pedal

Reviewed in the United States on September 19, 2013

Verified Purchase

It's definitely a great delay pedal. Has lots of delay modes and it's very easy to configure. Has 3 banks to store your favourites delays, and the taptempo button is very good when you're playing with a band. Worth the Money. The only negative point is that it comes only with batteries, not with an electric power supply. So, if you don't want to spend lots of money with batteries, you will have to buy the line 6 power supply too.

Dated but iconic pedal.

Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2020

Verified Purchase

So this pedal has maintained such a high price by virtue of having been played by many of the prolific guitarists of the 90's.

By now it's actually a vintage pedal, and a very good one aside from some durability issues. But to be frank, there are many more modern options that will give you a lot of the same functionality you will find here with improvements.

The looper is limited compared to dedicated loop pedals, and the programmable boards with built in wah/expression pedals are in this price range.

All that being said, I love this pedal. It's endless hours of the kind of playing that sparks new ideas, and has really transformed my own playing.

Every guitarist should have a DL4. Theres a reason this pedal is so legendary. Countless bands’ tone revolves around it. You can sculpt every parameter of how you want the delay to sound. If you don’t run a digital processor then this is the best option for delay FX.

Don't waste your money on a digital pedal. I spent $250 on this thing and one day it just died, and getting it fixed is expensive, and not every tech can do it. I can't believe a flaw this bad could be allowed to exist in a product so expensive.

I really love this thing. I bought a Boss loop pedal a while back and thought that thing was cool. Saw Reggie Watts using the same pedal at a show I caught in Atlanta and that guy definitely uses it to the extreme. Check out his videos if you want a demo. The looping system is very intuitive and the effects are great. All around one of the best musical investments I've made.

Awesome Pedal and Easy to use

Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2013

Verified Purchase

I bought this pedal for primarily looping purposes and have only brushed on it's capabilities with delay so I will just go over the loop.

The loop is amazingly simple to use and can record over and over again by simply pressing a button. It only took 15 minutes to understand exactly what each button did and how to use it, which is a lot less time than it usually takes to get used to new equipment. This pedal is awesome and worth every penny even a lot of great artists like Andrew Bird and Reggie Watts use this same pedal.

This Thing is Awesome!

Reviewed in the United States on February 26, 2014

Verified Purchase

Barely scratching the surface so far of what this thing can do, but even after using for just a few hours I am amazed by all the different ways you play with delays and echos. My old Boss digital delay died recently so I decided to upgrade to the DL4. Although it's about twice the price as the latest Boss delay pedal, this is like have 15 delay pedals in one! The possibilities are endless, and record/loop/playback feature is icing on the cake. If you need a delay and are willing to pony up the cash, this is the unit to get! Check out youtube for lots of tricks and tips, reviews, etc, for a taste of what the DL4 can do.

Great pedal, but weird power requirements

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 9, 2019

Verified Purchase

You've got to love the DL4. So versatile and simple to use. Lots of settings and adjustment beyond the average delay pedal. It's digital not analogue so obviously you need to accept the processing that brings, but it's no bit-crunched failure like some budget pedals are. These days it's a bit old but when it came out it was top of its game and fine for my needs. Some of the more obscure settings like reverse are a nice bonus. True stereo panning is also a plus. The ability to store multiple settings and instantly jump between them via the footswitches is the most useful part and helps in a gig when the lights suck. No fiddling with a small stompbox pedal in the dark required here!

Three downsides though:
1) size - it's not the smallest. 2-3 boss pedals worth.
2) weird power supply. this is tip positive (not negative like most pedals) and needs a high current feed too. My psu has a special branch just for line 6 pedals so I'm ok, but don't assume you will get away with daisy-chaining this as bad things will happen. You can run it off C-cell batteries if required, but that's a lot of weight and you'd want to be confident they will last long enough to not run out during a gig.
3) the footswitches are a weird kind. They are well known for failing with age/use. Lots of internet pages devoted to the issues and need to get them swapped out eventually. Just something to bare in mind. Mine is fine so far however.
