Electro Harmonix Canyon Delay & Looper

A lot is packed in this pedal. You need to check out a longer dedicated review. You get several delays, a reverb, up-down octavers (can be used without delay), loopers etc. Delays sound awesome, octaver too. The reverb is not that great for me, but that's just taste.

There's actually 6 controls in 4 knobs. Two controls (effect params) are reached by pressing and holding the button in the middle. It keeps the pedal small and at the same super-loaded with features, but a tad more difficult to use. Also, sometimes the pedal starts to behave funny. A knob doesn't work as it should or similar. It requires a "restart" (disconnect power and reconnect) to get back to normal working mode.

Still, it's brilliant.

There are a lot of features onboard this little pedal. I love the sounds but I have a few niggles. I think it's more of a studio pedal than a live workhorse. The writing is so small it's virtually impossible to read from a standing position. And when you use the button combinations to change parameters, it doesn't seem to save them when you leave that mode. Plus using the bypass button for the tap tempo doesn't seem to work properly. I would nearly prefer an EHX pedal that is twice the width with the same features more accessible in order to make it more user friendly in a gigging environment, where you have to act fast.
