Yamaha's D1500 is the kind of dependable digital delay that quietly did the work on a thousand 80s records. Clean repeats, a genuinely useful modulation section for chorus and flange, and the sort of build quality that means it still powers up decades later. Not flashy, just useful, and priced like the sleeper it is.
