If you use both inputs plus both outputs at the same time, the pedal works in true stereo. Input A only plus both outputs results in ping pong stereo delays. Input B only plus both outputs results in a wet signal at output A and a dry signal at output B. Input B only and output A only doubles the maximum delay time (mono mode). This can also be read in the user's manual that I referred to in the video description. The BOSS DD-5 / 6 / 7 pedals come with stickers so you can look it up in a fly.
@RinkZate The only thing the "Warp" mode does is to raise the delay level and the feedback rate to moximum when you engage the DD-6's internal pedal. The DD-7 has no setting labelled as "Warp", but that doesn't mean there is no such thing inside. Actually BOSS has improved the "Warp" mode with the DD-7, but you have to use an expression pedal (Roland EV-5, BOSS FV-500L) to obtain this function. With an expression pedal you can control all these parameters in ALL modes (even the "Analog" mode)!
@Louay1345 Hi there! I found my setting notes of the DD-6 demo. I achieved the sound 3' / 9' / 9' / 12' at 1:00 min this way: Fender Stratocaster, middle Pickup -> Marshall SV-1 Supervibe Chorus ( 9' / 5' / 7' / 5' ) -> BOSS DD-6 ( 3' / 9' / 9' / 12' ) -> BOSS RV-5 ( 12' / 10' / 10' / 7' ) I used the stereo outputs of the SV-1, went stero into the DD-6 and the RV-5 and from there into a stereo channel of my Alesis mixing console. The magic thing is to tap in the tempo (dotted eights).
You use the "Hold" mode. How to use it in particular can be read in the user's manual. See my video description for a link that leads to the manual in pdf format.
@darkslayer02 Yes, it has! But the DD-7's loop time is much longer (40 seconds in mono mode, 20 sec. in stereo mode) AND it works in true stereo! The DD-6's looper takes stereo input and sends it through as stereo, but the loops repeat it in mono only, thus making the DD-7 much more interesting when it comes to looping.
Yes, it does. See 3:15! And if you connect Input B with stereo out, you have the direct signal and the effect signal separated at both outputs, just like the DD-3 does as well. I didn't include (or record) this E/D thing, because this is one of my first demo videos and (alongside with a few others) it was meant for sale purposes only. If I had imagined beforehand that my videos become quite popular, I had done it with a bit more passion.
@WWWNATHAN "Okay" is everything that leads your sound in the way you want it. There is no problem at all to use the newer BOSS delays with a bass. They tolerate quite high input signals, therefore I don't see any problems with the use of an active bass. Currently I use my DD-7 (the newest model) with my bass, too.
@gibsonflyingv98 Oh, yes, you can make overdubs! How else should I have made the last sample in this demo? :o) But as you mentioned, the delay time is only 5.2 seconds.
Hi @Pepe Music Hello, nice video! You advice the "boss DD5" or "boss DD6"? They have different functions, but it does nothing. I am referring to the quality of the sound, it seems a little too "mushy" the DD5, unlike the "DD6" that looks more brilliant. I also wanted to know how long the hold function on both pedals. Thank you!
I have the DD-7 for a few years now and I don't regret having sold my DD-6 to purchase the follow-up model. The DD-7 has the same good sound as the DD-6, but much longer delay time and better functions and modes. The DD-7's HOLD function does finally work in stereo, too with a maximum time of 20 seconds (DD-6's maximum time: 5.2 seconds only!). If you use it in mono, the maximum HOLD time is even 40 seconds! That's almost as cool as a looper. The DD-7 also features a pretty good emulation of the famous BOSS DM-2 in the ANALOG mode. And MODULATE can sound very nice and like a chorus at short delay settings. The Tempo/Expression Pedal input is also an improvement, since you can select the parameters you want to control with your external pedal. And true stereo works in three different modes now. Overall I prefer the newest model over all the other compact BOSS DD-Pedals. One exception: the DD-2 and early Japanese DD-3. I have a DD-3 with the long chip and love it! It has a sound of its own (some kind of "more natural" sounding due to the rather lo-fi delay processor), while the DD-7 (and the 6 and the 5 and the modern 3) provide crystal clear and almost exact reproductions of the original signal.
Size matters for a lot of guitarists! Big clunky pedals are overall out-fashioned for live players. If you look at modern pedalboards, lots of guitarists use the tiniest possible solution to get the sound they need. The only real advantages that the DD-20 offers are: a few more modes, a tone control (that's the only thing I miss in the DD-7!), a display that shows the delay time and you can store 4 settings. And of course they differ in price. I'm really happy with the DD-7!
Ok! On the size you perfetamente right, but a "boss DD20 used" costs the same as a "boss DD7." You know how tough case for the "hold" the DD5? I'm thinking of buying an "electro harmonix memory boy deluxe". You know the "electro harmonix memory boy deluxe"? What do you think?
What would happen if you run a cable through input b to output a into a line of effects and send the signal back into input a and out of output b? would the pedal still function? will the quality of such a chain still work?
@RinkZate Read the manual on page 20 for the expression pedal settings! Page 19 is interesting as well if you want to know how to use the three different stereo modes. The DD-7 is totally awesome! I have to make a demo of it soon! :o)
Buy a DD-7. It is superior to the predecessor. The new DD-3's don't sound bad, but the original ones that were made in Japan have a better sound. Due to the lo-res technology the old ones with the long chip provide a more natural and musical feel. The modern pedals have crystal-clear repeats that are identical with your input signal. That's why I keep my old Japanese DD-3 alongside the DD-7 that I also have. The DD-7 also features an "analog" mode to emulate the old DM-2 with BBD (bucket brigade delay) chips. Sounds good to my ears.
Sorry for the late response. There might be a way to do it as you intend to. It might only require a Y-cable at the end to send the mixed sound to the amp. But I don't know if that works properly, since combining signals is often a rather complicated thing (at least when you try to combine a clean signal with effect signal). Simply try it out. If it doesn't work, you'll need a mixer before going into the amp.
If you use both inputs plus both outputs at the same time, the pedal works in true stereo.
Input A only plus both outputs results in ping pong stereo delays.
Input B only plus both outputs results in a wet signal at output A and a dry signal at output B.

Sir i got ur dd6 how much please send ur number i will call u
I am buy ur dd6 boss
appreciate all those boss pedal video. thank you.
This pedal is really amazing .
@mverdi9
Thanks a lot! I'm glad you all like my demos! :o)
awesome pedal demos man, you are awesome, thanks

This sounds great. I can't decide between this pedal or the MXR Carbon Copy, though.
the best video i have ever see , nice man ;)

Very rare to hear a pedal demo where the distortion pedal is the same one I use

2:33 love the sounds. Thanks

really cool melody)
I fell in love of your demos! :) Can you pass me some of yours tabs i'd like to try 'em too :)
@gibsonflyingv98
Oh, yes, you can make overdubs! How else should I have made the last sample in this demo? :o) But as you mentioned, the delay time is only 5.2 seconds.
Thanks a lot! I'm very sorry, but there are no existing tabs. Everything I play is improvised.
Hi @Pepe Music
Hello, nice video!
You advice the "boss DD5" or "boss DD6"?
They have different functions, but it does nothing. I am referring to the quality of the sound, it seems a little too "mushy" the DD5, unlike the "DD6" that looks more brilliant.

thank you very much for advice and considerations!
But then what changes between the DD7 and DD20?
Size matters for a lot of guitarists! Big clunky pedals are overall out-fashioned for live players. If you look at modern pedalboards, lots of guitarists use the tiniest possible solution to get the sound they need.

Ok!
On the size you perfetamente right, but a "boss DD20 used" costs the same as a "boss DD7." You know how tough case for the "hold" the DD5?
I'm thinking of buying an "electro harmonix memory boy deluxe".
You know the "electro harmonix memory boy deluxe"? What do you think?
What would happen if you run a cable through input b to output a into a line of effects and send the signal back into input a and out of output b? would the pedal still function? will the quality of such a chain still work?
@RinkZate
Read the manual on page 20 for the expression pedal settings! Page 19 is interesting as well if you want to know how to use the three different stereo modes.
The DD-7 is totally awesome! I have to make a demo of it soon! :o)
Can I get your advice on on which one I should get? DD-3 or the DD-6? I play in a garage/psych band with a lot of reverb. Great video! Cheers!
Buy a DD-7. It is superior to the predecessor. The new DD-3's don't sound bad, but the original ones that were made in Japan have a better sound.

tocas genial amigo y los efectos estan chingones!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How do you have that wired? Is it 2 separate guitars going into the pedal and out to 2 Amps?
cool man thx
can you use input a ans b each for diffrent guitars? so two guitars over one amp
Sorry for the late response. There might be a way to do it as you intend to. It might only require a Y-cable at the end to send the mixed sound to the amp. But I don't know if that works properly, since combining signals is often a rather complicated thing (at least when you try to combine a clean signal with effect signal). Simply try it out. If it doesn't work, you'll need a mixer before going into the amp.
i've seen people use this with bass is that ok to do ?? and if so even with an active bass ??
How do I get a U2 dotted eighth note exact with this???
Hey man, how'd you get the type of sound you were playing at 1:00? I'd really like to know
Please tell me What the music was from 1:00 to 1:22
how do you loop with it
How did you run it in stereo?
This is no song. Those tunes that I play are to 100% my own ideas. Thanks for asking! :o)
Does this ping pong???
Sorry, but my brain can't be connected with a printer or a USB device. I don't write down tabs.
please send the tab)
I buy dd6 help me
Sorry, I don't understand what kind of help you want.
or* in the american Series
@mverdi9 ..... I totally agree, and good stereo sound quality too. {;o)
Pure coincidence! Or maybe they copied me! Then I'd feel honoured.
but`m just heard this in smth film of in american series
Nevermind lol.
well don`t care ) Thanks anyway)
sigh...people asking for tabs..learn some improvisation!
