I'm retiring my old Ibanez EM5 echomachines for something newer....What's the best delay out there to replace them?

Or buy one. Some builders sell them.

Yeah, could do that also. The PCBs are available out there.

The EM5 used an old digital chip in parallel to the analog signal, similar to what the FV-1 based delay pedals do today. One of the FV-1 based delays could be a good modern substitute also.

Kinda liking some of the SDE3 tones.

The SDE-3 looks like a killer new pedal.

I have a Flashback II that I like a lot. It is clean, analog dry-through, and can do dual delays with modulation.
