My Pedals - EQD Dispatch Master

Up next is the Earthquaker Devices Dispatch Master.

I've gone through a ton of Delay pedals over the years. Probably only had more Fuzz pedals. Before the Dispatch Master I was using a Boss DD-500. I found with the DD-500 I created a bunch of presets when I bought it and then just stopped messing around with it because setting up presets took time away from playing. So when I looked to replace it I wanted something stripped down that would force me to move knobs.

The Dispatch Master is not a flashy delay pedal and I think that's its biggest strength. It sits INCREDIBLY well in a mix and as long as you don't crank all the knobs or set it way out of tempo it really doesn't have a "bad" setting. If I'm recording a solo, or even just want a track to sound more "alive" the Dispatch Master is on. The other thing I like to do is put a vibrato in front of the DM to make it sound less digital.

The one thing I miss that this delay doesn't do is multi-tap. I have a CBA Habit that can do multi-tap delay but it doesn't quite get to the level a RE-2/202 or Echorec does so I might be getting one of those in the future.
