I'm still wedded to the Moog sound (that slight warbley-trail is A+++ for me).

Sarah bought me the GarageTone Axle Grease delay for Christmas and it's pretty great, though it definitely has more "character"/is less transparent than my old delay. Also this is stupid but it took me a while to figure out whether it could run off a battery.

$399 street afaik. and it's more or less the size of a rack unit, but as a confirmed lanois junkie it's only a matter of time before i end up with a used one...

I'm thinking about buying a new delay pedal. The Moog Minifooger delay is currently the top candidate...I think the main features I'm looking for are infinite feedback and the ability to use an expression pedal. I'd also prefer something with some character/color. I've watched way too many shitty pedal demos on Youtube this week. Is there anything similar to the Minifooger delay that I'm overlooking?

No expression pedal in, but the Caroline Kilobyte sounds awesome and has a momentary footswitch that engages the infinite feedback while you keep it held down and then quickly fades it out when you release the switch, which is incredibly cool. Plus, it's $200.

Early demo, there's now a mini pot in the top face to add modulation to the delay as needed.

Thanks, I'll check that one out! I think I saw the little space invader dude on the pedal and "lo fi" in the description and thought it was some bitcrusher-type deal and avoided it.

yeah honestly that lofi thing isnt a great call - it can get lofi with the delay preamp cranked but its not lofi by default at all, its one of the sweeter sounding delays ive got in the shop

"that lofi thing" being in the name isnt a great call i mean

Strymon El Capistan has all of that, I love mine.

Still love the old Moog MF-104Z I keep referring to in this thread. I just wish it didn't take up so much space.

A friend of mine has the Memory Man (not the Deluxe) and I've messed around with it but never really dug it for whatever reason. I wound up going with the Minifooger delay but might end up picking up the Caroline Kilobyte eventually, too.
