BOSS ME-90 vs DD-200 Delay Shootout (STEREO / NO TALKING)

To me it sounds as though the algorithms are the same in each (except shimmer), but the additional parameters on the DD-200 do take it a lot further. At 1:08 I dial up the additional parameters on the DD-200 to illustrate this.
Yellow LED on the A/B switcher means ME-90 is engaged, red LED for the DD-200.
Guitar was running through an Engl tube preamp 530 for both the clean and distorted sections, and both pedals recorded in stereo.

why we can't get ping pong style delays on those units? I mean...if it's stereo out I assume we could pan delays. I'm under the impression that we can hear it happening only on the tera echo mode.

[@PedalScience]

My best guess is it's purposeful product-feature segregation i.e only the most expensive Boss products get proper stereo capabilities (even though the lowly DD-7 had switchable output modes and full ping pong delays... As does my GX-700 from 1996...) Perhaps it keeps the production cost down having one less D>A converter on the output 🤷

[@marcelosilveira.guitar]

It makes sense. But it sounds dumb to me in the actual market Boss don't actually think about these details@@PedalScience

How is your whole signal chain setup?

I think the boss uses the same technology in all his devices like ME-90, GX-100, GT-1, GT-1000, Katana etc. Before that it was COSM. . they also had the same everywhere. . . Roland Cube combos, ME-80 etc . . .

[@lucid_delirium976]

The katana doesn't use any AIRD technology. It uses some COSM though.

[@topavelka]

@@lucid_delirium976 Both ME-90 and Katana use same BOSS Tone studio soft :-) why? Becouse its same technology.

[@whiteeyezx5766]

GT-1 is different, it use the old COMS technology

[@topavelka]

@@whiteeyezx5766 OK thanks for the info

De-200 way transparent -ME 90 suck the tone…

[@Tolognabullets]

Doesn't sound bad but yeah in a side by side I'm honestly surprised at how noticeable it is

[@joshvalbrice]

Does it have a ping Pong delay or paning option
