I only gave it four stars so you don't think I'm crazy. A great delay for a little bit of money. I had the big name pedals poop out after a short time. They said made in America but I open them up and they have the cheap Chinese PC boards. These guy doesn't lie to you but it works long time. I am lucky to get 8 months out of the costly ones.

Ok it works , it sounds decent. If your looking to thicken your sound it does that , however it has a very short delay time at max it's only 300 ms. So no triplet talk back echo effects going on here but for slap back type delay it's ok . Its more effective as a reverb or solo enhancement . It is quiet and clean reproduction of sound it's just very limited by the VERY SHORT delay time .

I bought this pedal as an inexpensive alternative to the hight priced pedals. I have had very good luck with Behringer pedals in the past with only one pedal going bad since I've been using them when they first hit the market. This pedal will give you that "Slap-back" effect that us widely used in country music as well as an all purpose delay for adding a nice "shimmering" sound to your guitar. It's well worth the normal asking price of $29.95. If you want longer delay times, try their other delay pedals, Behringer has something for everyone! Note: If you're a true stomper, this line of pedals may not be for you. The only drawback is they are housed in a heavey plastic case and not metal as all of the higher priced pedal are. But, you can buy 3 or 4 of these for every one of those. Great value for what you pay for it.Read full review
The pedal seems to be built well. Battery compartment access could be better designed. Unit seems to go into echo runaway in some settings and you have to turn it off or it reaches a terrible crescendo. Not sure if that is a failure of design or learning intensity adjustments. Intensity seems to have too much potentiometer travel for the circuit design as you can't use it much above half way. Repeat and Echo settings seem to be of better design. They work in all positions. I purchased this to use with an Electric Mandolin. It seams to augment performance and for the price it was a good choice. As I learn more perhaps a different pedal would be better for this application.

This is an echo box, it does echo fast or slow. This device does not have a 'time' setting like a delay effect does. If the intensity level is turned up over half way, this box will go into feedback loop and will have to be shut off to stop it. The VD400 is made of plastic, but seems pretty study. On the good side, the VD400 has a nice rich sound to it. I found that if you keep the repeat rate at minimum and the echo and intensity a little over 1/4, this box is excellent for lead guitar, at this setting you will get nice sustain and boost. The VD400 is a one trick pony, but I think its worth the money due to its fat sound.
