any Boss pedals rival the Halo?

[dstroud]

I really like some of the Halo ambient tones, but I prefer a Boss pedal footprint. They have anything close?

Darren, check out the Boss Space Echos. One is typical Boss pedal size, the other larger.

Boss Tera Echo

I've been wanting one since they were released. Thank you for reminding me.

The new Boss SDE-3 looks interesting.
Haven't had a chance to try one yet though.

I'm using a DD-500 and DM-101 so my boss is too big.

I have the Halo and absolutely love it. I have the SDE 3000 as well but is bulky and a lot of tweaks, etc. I'm thinking of picking up the Sde-3.

I was looking at the SDE-3 also, but the SDE-3000D went on sale for $250, so I got one of those for Christmas. I have not messed with it much yet, but really liked that I heard. It can do a good dual delay with Chorus, with an analog dry through.

What about the Halo Core? IMO nothing currently does the Halo thing.

I thought the original Halo pedal was standard pedal size....?

Here is someone's version for the DD500.


"I have programmed a dual delay path similar to the Keeley Halo - 'halo default' preset on the DD-500. This is kind of a hybrid between the Halo and the TC Electronic Alter Ego V2 "EREC2" setting with the dual switch engaged. This has become my main delay patch on the DD-500.

[EDIT: Fixed errors]
The Expression pedal controls the Delay Level.

It is and don't know why I wasn't remembering that. Definitely my favorite pedal!
