Is there a delay that will suppress the 1st note?

[ArtieToo]

The old SD Deja Vu has an effect loop for this sort of thing . . .

I'll probably be running through a little Mackie 402VLZ4. It's cool little mixer where both of the main inputs can be switched to be guitar-centric. And it cost about the same as one pickup. It's a nice little unit.

Ha, that is never my point. I don't get paid to sell stuff. But it something that I have studied before.

I know man. That's why I did the "smiley". Nonetheless, you provide good info.

MXR echoplex will do that.

Is that the Dunlop EP103? MXR appears under the Jim Dunlop page, but there's no actual Echoplex with the MXR name on it.

Yes, sorry, that's what I meant. Jim Dunlop Echoplex.

No prob man. I'm checking it out. (With the rest.)

Thanks.

Anything with a blend knob

[ArtieToo]

Well, if I end up needing to buy something, the Vapor Trail has a definite edge over the EchoPlex. I was just perusing the manual for the EchoPlex and you have to jump through some odd hoops to get that functionality. It's just plug-'n-play on the Vapor Trail.

Not every blend knob works that way, I think. Some only control the level of the effect, without attenuating the dry signal.
I believe the Dunlop Echoplex may be one of them, if it's like the old tape Echoplexes.

EDIT: When an effect has a control labeled "Mix," then it probably can give you wet-only.
But one labeled Blend wouldn't necessarily do that - some might, but others might not.
I recommend checking the manuals before making a final choice based on this particular parameter.

I'm still hoping that one of my current devices will do this, but I got caught up in other things and didn't get around to it today. (Well, yesterday now.)

I had a Tech 21 Boost DLA that would go 100% wet like that. At the time I couldn't see why anyone would want that but now I can think of plenty of possible uses. Neither of my current delays will do it. As electricsynergy said, their knobs control the echo volume but do not change the dry signal (the initial note) at all.

I don't disagree, but those aren't technically blend knobs -the pedal company is misrepresenting the function -It's a great point though.

Any medium to high end delay with a "blend" knob is surely the ability to mix the buffered bypass dry signal blend with the delay effect through effect stages from 100% through to 100%

But it's definitely worth doing the research before purchasing to your point.

MXR echoplex will do that.

I checked the manual on the (Dunlop) Echoplex pedal - normally passes the dry signal through at unity gain like the tape ones did.
But a delay-only wet mode is available by holding down the Level knob and manipulating the other two controls.
