Having listened to it, I'm giving a resounding 'WHAT THE HELL' it sounds gimmicky and a bit stupid to my ears. But that's IMO and all that. I was all prepared to like it, I've had the Boss DD-3, DD-5, DD-20, RV-2 and RV-3 and really like this Boss reverb and delay sound.

Perhaps not linking to the ripoff artist formally known as musicthings and rather to Boss' own product pages might be a better idea!!

I believe TE-2 is a pedal for ambience musicians although its not the sort of things you'll be using all the time:) I'd love to have it in my pedal board as esp the milti overtone! It would really suit my kind of playing. Its not the best but unique sounding. but by saying that I'd wait for the prices to go down! haha multi overtine sounds like a POG but 2x cheaper! as for the adaptive distorion, Sounds very generic haha, I kinda like it. They might not sound as good with the setup.

I'd love to have another boss delay :S that link I posted is a rip off. they havent updated the pedals haha. e.g. Dynadrive only cost like 99 bucks haha.

This.
Bought a fairly expensive keyboard from him once. I hadn't read all the material on the net about him or seen the Fair Go episode before buying. Found out after paying. (Doh. Yes I know). Was a fairly nervous time. But got the item in the end. Would never buy from him again though.

Its a bit telling that his refund policy is in the top menu, prominently placed ;)

Couldn't stop laughing at this bit
Items must be returned with serial numbers intact to verify the product was sourced from GlobalSoundTradeThangz
How can you leave it intact if he's already scrubbed it off? :moresarc:
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Boss Tera-Echo is freakin awesome. I played it at the NAMM show and it knocked my face off.

It's a really sweet sounding delay, which can either be classic tape-echo style, or as over-the-top as you want. The "freeze" function is fantastic and is a huge selling point for this pedal.

It's a pedal that's so good, even the boutique snobs are gonna be hard pressed to knock it. I think we will sell a LOT of these

In that case it might be really cool. It seems to have a reverby ness in the feedback which would go well on my acoustic.

Nope, no trimpots. I thought the controls are pretty standard for a delay pedal.... LEVEL, TONE, FEEDBACK and DELAY TIME. What else are you looking for?

Check out this video (ignore the annoying hipster): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0eLDd1k2ZI

There’s tons of bubbly synthy shimmery stuff, it would be cool if that part of the effect was tweakable. as it sounds in that video, I don’t think it work for me, but toned down a bit would be really cool

i was looking for the GAY DOLPHIN ORGASM "off" switch :moresarc: i.e the feedback and s-time controls dont seem to effect just the repeat/time.I dont see how you can turn off the background aquatic orgy without some sort of modulation control?
