Any in particular you were looking at? I have experience with the analog delay, phaser, chorus, flanger, and the SD-9 and OD-9, if you were looking at any of those?
How embarrassing I've had all of that lot!
I really liked the flanger and far preferred it to the chorus. The flanger can actually do a couple of good chorus sounds as well as jet plane stuff, The Cult-type stuff and some (ahem) modern metal-y stuff. I found the chorus to be quite bright. It's a very clear sounding chorus, but if you're used to swampier fatter chorus pedals, like an EHX Small Clone, you might find it a bit abrasive. It's also fairly subtle, and what detune you can get out of extreme settings isn't like a cool old vibe, it sounds more "gimmicky." Apparently for optimum results with the chorus, stereo operation is a must and I only had one amp at the time so maybe I was missing a trick there.
Love the AD9 - nicely dark, great for ambient washes etc. Bit too dark for slapback in my opinion, but as a 70's rock type analog delay it's great. Better than the Carbon Copy, IMO. As good as a DM2. As with all analog delays, I wish it had more volume, but that's the nature of the beast. A plus point is it's very hard to make clip, which is great if you're gonna pummel it with a load of boosts.
Never played the wah filter personally, but I know a lot of "jam band" players who really rate it for Jerry Garcia sounds. These people are generally pretty anal about stuff, so if they recommend it, it's probably good!
Of those you mentioned, I would say the Flanger is my fave, followed by the AD9.
