The Dan-Echo Hold mod is a modification that allows you to lock in forced oscillations. The Dan-Echo produces delay by saving your guitar’s signal into a memory chip, then recalling it some milliseconds later. It does this over, and over, and over, and…you get the picture! The Hold mod adds a toggle switch that, when

The Dan-Echo Infinite Repeats mod, also called the R10 Mod, is a modification that allows you to force the DE-1 to self-oscillate. In it’s stock form, the Repeats knob doesn’t allow you to reach infinite repeats. The R10 Mod pushes the Dan-Echo to its’ limits by introducing a toggle switch for infinite repeats. A change

The Dan Echo’s Delay Time control has a decent upper limit, but the lower limit is not quite fast enough for my taste. The Doubler Mod was developed to allow the Dan-Echo to achieve the “doubling” delay effect by extending the lower range of the Delay Time control. Put another way: “Doubling” is a trick used

Mu-Tron C-200 Wah/Vol (From 1993) Pedals weren’t a large component of Sonic Youth’s sound until the late 1980s. Even then their use was minimal and limited to wahs and fuzz. The Mu-Tron C-200 Wah/Vol found a home on Thurston’s board in 1993 and, until recently, has been a stable of his sound. An example of
