using with the monotron delay

Post by neanderman9 »

Hi
having many musical adventures with my ms 20.
Am wondering about getting a monotron delay, a simple device but looks like fun.

Anyone tried running their ms20 through one of these little chaps ?
Any vids out there ?

Cheers for any info on this.

Am new here.

I love the monotron delay, my fave of all 3 monotrons. At the price they cost, you havn't much to lose. What i can tell you is that the Monotron delay is a filthy dirty analogue delay like the old late 70's early 80's ones & anything you put through it will be expanded in the same filthy dirty way ! Haha. Go for it man, or any decent delay is cool.

cheers man
that decides it then.
got a kaossilator2 a bit back, that's fun. That through delay will be ok to.
I've mostly been using M-Audio midi keys with Ableton then adding guitar.

Always wanted a proper synth and along came the ms20 mini, at the price I couldn't resist. It's a beast of a thing for it's size and such fun. Oh ye.. I just dug out an old Korg drum machine to go along with all this stuff, the DDM110.

glad I joined this site.

peace

To be honest, there are better choices too for cheap analogue delays. Just check out ebay. There are mono delay pedals on there at comparable prices.
The difference is that the monotrons are geared up to process an incoming signal along with their filtered sound but a dedicated delay unit would be a better all rounder for your guitar & all that. The monotron delay is capable of making enough awesome sound on its own & it is great but i'm just putting it out there that's all ,there are other options before you leap.
