Spill the beans then: Meraki -v- Discovery

I haven't worked it out yet.

The first issue with the Meraki is that you only get one side of the delay (a single mono delay) if you wire it up in mono. I contacted Walrus and they said that I can put a patch cable from the output of one side into the input of the other. So now it works as a dual series delay - which is more of the comparison to the future factory.

I haven't put it back to back with the discovery yet, but have been piddling about back to back with the Meris LVX (did I mention I've got a stupid number of delay pedals).

My initial reaction to the Meraki is that it hasn't got a huge amount of adjustment in the tone/eq. It's fairly murky whatever you do. So I think the discovery is going to win there.

But I have to say the Meraki sounds really musical. I'm an Andy Timmons tone fan and the Meraki does immerse you in a cloud of sound. (Although, weirdly I haven't bought a Halo pedal - yet). The repeats are really good at getting out of the way of your playing even when the mix is up pretty high.

Will get the discovery powered up in a bit.

Also, I've just had an overdrive pedal delivered - so it's pretty lucky that the other half has gone out for the day.

Howdy, Stranger!
