Hi! I'm taking my new membership out for a spin - with a new posting no less!  My question for today is what's the difference between the 1/2 rack RDD-20 vs. the RDD-10. I have the RDD-10 and now an RDD-20, which I though had twice the delay time, but apparently not!?
Much confusion at my end as I've missed some crucial detail and perhaps the RDD-20 is an newer Revision replacing the older RDD-10 delay??
I've yet to open it up, but meanwhile was hoping for some insight - a schematic would be very cool, but not readily available?
Thanks! Elie  |

I thought the difference was longer delay time too so if that's not the case I'm stumped. The RDD-20 was replacing the RDD-10 so I'd assume there is some difference there.
Let us know if you figure it out |

| I don't know the answer, but do you think the difference between the RDD-10 and RDD-20 is the same as the difference between the DD-2 and the DD-3? (e.g., due to price drops on key components, a 'new' lower price model was created) |

| Good thinking. The RDD-10 was replaced by the RDD-20 about the same time that the DD-2 was replaced by the DD-3 so that makes perfect sense. |

Added Point: Contacted Roland who confirmed that the RDD-20 and RDD-10 are the same beast - just cosmetic changes where applicable though my RDD-20 has identical colours of the RDD-10 whereas it's Black for some.
Well, I came across my collection of Boss Pocket Dictionary's and Product catalog of that era...The one decernable difference, at least on paper, is that the Logarithmic Compression on the RDD-20 is touted as being 'comperable to 16 bit quality' whereas the RDD-10 just states that the Log. Compression 'provides improved performance' (no quantitative reference). Other than that... They look/act/work internally/externally the same! I don't think they even changed anything - Perhaps the compression chip?? (if there is one a such).
Thanks for the follow-ups! |
