It's like VST's, really you are paying a lot for the algorithms. I don't mind that and some companies have a model where the cost includes future updates like this with the expansion card and Neunaber etc. Also, companies like this are on their 2nd or 3rd generation of pedals which has user feedback put back into the design.
The cost is still high, relative to things like the FX8 considering what you get, but at least they are future upgradable. Plus companies like Empress do seem to ensure the hardware is of top quality with good converters and clean bypasses. For me, this is the area in which the more budget companies seem to fall down, even if their a algorithms are good.
Well it is pricey, but that only puts it at £30 more than a Timeline, and as with their Reverb, they will add new delay algorithms in the future.
If I could get a Moogerfooger delay for less than £450 now, I'd jump at it. They're selling for 4-figure sums now!
I've no doubt it will be ace and look incredible value, but as Mooer's first foray into this market I'd wait for reviews and some user experience. It's been shown for at least a year now, so at least you can't say it has been rushed!
I'm not a big fan of the aesthetics, looks dated already to me, but if it's good it wouldn't stop me getting one.
Quite amazed that they haven't reissued with the Xvive chips.
Oh go on!
The American prices for Moog gear have been ramping up over the last year. Last Moog delay that sold on Ebay here went for £680 for the 104M. A brand new 104m-SD went for $2300 in February.
And the first Ebay listing is up for them
