Makes sense.

I got the Boss DD 20 today and It's even cooler that I thought.

It has a tape simulation (decays and loses fidelity upon repeats) that sounds pretty realistic to me. There's also a setting that makes it sound warbly.

I can approximate quite closely the Memory Man with my Small Clone pedal, but the delay (echo) can go up to 23 full seconds.

The backwards setting is quite trippy and realistic sounding.

The sound on sound feature is quite simple: just tap the pad when you start your part and tap again to end it. It instantly loops it forever while you can play right over it. You can also layer it infinitely! I have some songs that I'm gonna try and pull this live on. This feature will be great for drones, too.

All in all, I don't regret getting rid of the Memory Man now, this Boss pedal has exceeded my expectations.
