Ibanez AD-80 occasionally when using a single amp.

I used to have a DM-3 but I sold it not too long ago.

Either/or 'bout the best analog delay you can get in a box, but you can't get 'em anymore.

Don> I'm sure there's someone around who can go through your pedal and fix it up--depending on what's wrong with it.

Try looking up one of the guys who's well known for modding T9's or Big Muffs or something. Someone like that would know what to do with it.

I am also a big fan of the SIB Mr. Echo, REALLY warm tapey sounding delay, sounds great into a tube amp as well as a NV 400. Great way to get that steel guitar from great beyond kind of vibe. Also has a output level control, which I've not seen on any other delay pedal. SIB makes really great gear, built to last, great tone and don't take up too much space on the pedal board.

I started with the Ibanez AD-9 Analog~Delay made by MAXON then I went to the Ibanez DM 1100 digital delay
when I stayed a hitch with Jeff Newman in the 80's but I kept the AD-9, just in case :D :D :D :D :arrow: gary

I just picked up an old Ibanez AD9 pedal, and find it works great for steel. Over in the Steel on the Web section, I have a link to a youtube video with me playing a bit of steel through a Fender non-reverb Deluxe. All I'm using is a bit of the AD9, and to me it fleshes out the sound without washing it out, like some reverbs do.
