Pairing a Harp Break with one of Greg's new elements (in a JT-30), any suggestions on a delay for a PA set up?

Joyo analog delay is the best of the cheap ones.

If you have the money, go for the LW always.

LW, sure, and I use a V1 with my amp, but I was thinking first I'd like to get something different.

i have 4 delays
chandler digital echo
dd3
akai head rush
bella ep

i almost never use delay,then i will. i'll think, how did i get by with out it.

the chandler is amazing and possibly my favorite.
the dd3 has been the industry standard forever. but this is 2016
some of this new stuff is pretty cool. the akai headrush
is really nice, i got it brand new 65.00 has a looper built in.
i like the digital setting best. the bella ep is every bit as cool
as a original echoplex. it is a little touchy, it has an internal gain switch,
that is located inside so it is too difficult to adjust.
i just turned it down or off. which is a bummer as that is a main feature of the dang thing.

i have a preference for digital over analog. even if it is trying to emulate tape.

Why not use the effects ( reverb or delay ) on the board?

Using the board effects may be the right choice, but PA effects are often not friendly to harp. That's probably more human factor than gear though. I'm just used to getting my stage sound and going flat through the board. The HE and a Harp Break would be an efficient rig that would also fit into my harp case even with a DI. I'd go DI for signal strength and the option to switch out an existing vocal mic. That setup would take less than 1 minute.

I use t-rex reptile delay ver.1 and pretty happy with it. It's easy to use and have very useful volume controls.
