Does anyone know of a demo, video, etc. that demonstrates the Benado Steel Dream? I am very interested in trying to get one, but I can't find a video demoing the unit anywhere and have a few questions about it. For example, is the delay just a straight 1/4 delay? Being analog does it have a bit of modulation built into the delay, like a tape echo, or is it just a warm straight delay without the top end that a digital delay adds? Is the verb a hall, plate, spring, etc.... I love the idea of having one unit with reverb, delay and an overdrive, which is all that I would need, but would really like to hear a good demo of the unit.

If you know of anything out there, or own one of these units and could do a quick demo of it, I would appreciate it.

Thanks!

Jeremy

I have a dispatch master reverb and delay that is nice.
Easier to control than others.

I made an inquiry to Sage a year ago and never
got a reply. I'm using a RV-3 only right now
and nothing else. I was curious as to how the
Steel Dream would compare. Basicly I just ask
him for the main selling point advantages.
I never got a reply. So I still don't know
what the Steel Dream would do.

Though there is not a video demonstration here, Paul Franklin discusses the Benado in this thread:

Here is a short clip of him demo-ing his guitar and the Benado on YouTube, he shows the Benado starting at about 12:00:

I may be wrong but it seems like the price is rather high for three effects. You can purchase three separate units for WAY less money and maybe sound just as good. Whoa!

YouTube Benado or visit his website. He also has a FB page including his latest pedal with (dual) delay. They're spendy, but are analog and well worth it in my opinion. I think he will configure whatever pedals you want into his boards. They also have DI outs etc.
