Boss SDE-3 Dual Digital Delay Review

DGARDINER5 31.12.2024

While looking to link the tap tempo of a boss dd-8 to a looper rc-5 (midi in, out) and a slicer sl-2 (midi in), I discovered this new pedal which unlike the dd-8 has a midi in port. Having read the spec on the boss website I was convinced the SDE-3 was exactly what I was looking for. The pedal has far exceeded my expectations, simple to operate with a host of cool delay and stereo options.

Another outstanding pedal from boss.

Great service from Thomann.

Quality Delay, Worth the Money!

Figs 06.11.2025

I purchased this pedal 6 months ago to replace a budget delay pedal that I had been using previously. I'm probably only scratching the surface of what this pedal can actually do but I'm still very impressed with how good it sounds. I felt my budget delay pedal sounded okay on clean tones but took away a lot of oomph from distorted sounds but my distortion still sounds great with the SDE-3. Solid construction and excellent usability as you would expect from a Boss pedal. I recommend also ordering a bass plate (item 549988) if putting on a pedal board.

Best delay pedal?

Golimonkey 18.07.2025

Low noise floor, transparent buffer (not all boss delays are), tap tempo, great modulation and hi cut.

The 80s are going on and on and on...

Wrightson 19.11.2024

Dass die 80er im Bereich Musik etwas Besonderes waren ist gerade zur Zeit wieder Thema. Im Radio läuft die Popmusik der 80er rauf und runter, Synthesizer Klänge von damals sind nach wie vor en Vogue, und nun kommt BOSS mit einem Kulteffekt jener Zeit um die Ecke, neu verpackt in ein klassisches Bodenpedal. Bekäme ich nicht ab und an den Roland Newsletter, hätte ich wahrscheinlich nichts davon bemerkt.
Als Spieler mit Monosynthesizern und Rhythmus Computern sind Delays für mich besonders interessant, und dieses ist der Wahnsinn!
Die gebotenen Möglichkeiten sind unglaublich, der Klang großartig, und dabei habe ich das Potential noch einmal ansatzweise ausreizen können. In Kombi mit dem BOSS Reverb RV-6 macht dieses Delay beispielsweise aus meinem Korg Monotribe ein wahrliches Beatmonster. Hammer! Dieses Gerät bleibt, und ich kann es kaum erwarten, es mit meinem MXR Carbon Copy Analog Delay zu koppeln. And the Beat goes on...
