I made that short animated intro and little ditty for Ryan.

From the video, the Sunny Day Delay looks and sounds pretty awesome.

Nice work, Sean!

Yeah good one dude!

Thanks, dudes!
I used a BitQuest! to create the little ditty and Toon Boom Animate to create the animation.
Short but sweet.

Anyone have a chance to try one of these out yet?

I got one in about 2 weeks ago but haven't had a chance to sit down and play with it.

I love mine. Tone control is great. It sits perfectly within whatever I'm playing.

I got a Black one comin' this month - ordered in december but asked Ryan to ship it after new years to avoid the postal madness.
Will post my impressions when it gets here!

After a couple of weeks i can confirm that SDD is great.

I hate to use this word because it's just the every-youtube-demo-ever favorite word, but it's lush ( ) : it sits there with your playing and reacts to it in a really dynamic and organic way such that it's hard to turn it off.

It's not an "aggressive" delay, i mean that even when at its extremes, it doesn't get into noise madness (which i like too), but i don't think it's what is supposed to do. It' a great, straight, warm delay with highly customizable tone and mix response. In some ways it reminds me of my other "set and forget" delay, the Boss DM-2W, but more tweakable and with better interaction with whatever sound you put into it, from aggressive fuzzes, to crystal clear twangs to big chuggy stuff and so on.

I usually just set the modulation to a sweet spot and then forget it, so I immediately set the left footswitch for infinite repeats, and I strongly suggest everyone to do the same: the infinite oscillations on the SDD are beyond gorgeous. The most surprising thing is that they seem to be perfectly dialed in in any possible setting, both tone-wise and volume-wise.

For the sake of doing it, i have compared those infinite repeats placing it in series with 2 other delays of the same category, with dedicated runaway footswitches, the PLBR Young Hearts and the Rubberneck. Just to be clear, i like them all, but there are some slight differences: Rubberneck is dirtier, grainier - if it makes any sense - and as a result of this when the oscillations kick in they seem to grow faster toward destruction. Young Hearts is more "neutral" in terms of tone, in fact that it doesn't have a tone knob, though the amount of control on the oscillations (attack, release, timebend, randomization) is really something else and incomparable to any pedal I know.

That's it for now, did i really need another PT2399 delay? absolutely no, but now i am super happy of having it.

Super cool!
