He persisted after I politely declined, so I looked at his feedback etc. to see if he looked like a dealer who maybe knew something I didn't about the zither. i had a look at his items for sale and saw that he'd recently had the DM-2 up but hadn't sold it, so I offered to meet him at Harthill Services and give him the zither and £100 cash for the DM-2. Not a bad deal for one of these somewhat gold-dusty pedals, I reckon.
The question now is do I keep my DM-3 or flog it to pay for the DM-2? I could ask the same about my DOD FX96. I suppose the real question is can you have too many echo units?
Haven't opened it up to check the chip yet as I've been busy playing my keyboard through it since I got it home, but it's the earlier black label version, so here's hoping it's the MN3005 version. The fact that the seller said it needs 12v to run, except when it's daisy-chained, in which case it'll run on a 9v PSU (eh?
), suggests it might be. This one doesn't seem too keen on self-oscillating. I'll look for a trim-pot when I open it up, but I'm not all that fussed about it self-oscillating anyway if the truth were told. I'm just pleased to have finally landed one of these 20th-century classics.
