Whammy DT : An instrument in itself

For years now I've been wanting to try out this one of these pedals. Some of the world's most renowned players (Tom Morello, Johnny Greenwood, Joe Satriani) have made them a mainstay of their pedalboards so much so that their sound has become synonymous with its pitch-shifting capabilities and unique traits. Apparently to some 'aficionados', the original WH-1 from the early nineties is still the gold standard with recent subsequent models (WH-4 and 5) fairing less favorably with fans. However, with the DT and its new features (droptuning and momentary switch) I think Digitech are finally quelling complaints from long-time fans of the original.

Pros

Really easy to set up and use.

New features like the droptune function means no more retuning to play certain songs (eg. you can play in Eb or F at the touch of a button).

A lot smaller than i thought it would be so more compact.

Cons

Included power supply is odd looking and means if i break it, I will need another specific digitech whammy power supply as apposed to just a generic 9v one.

Droptune function isn't perfect as there is a noticeable delay from the time you pluck a string to the time the sound comes from the amp.
