Description

Edit description

Submerge yourself into the ether. Here comes the first-ever pedal to capture the coveted Digital Bath sound.

Digital Bath is the most complex pedal we have ever developed. It took us nearly two years to get it absolutely perfect.

~ David Karon

Designed with Chino Moreno and approved down to the last detail, Digital Bath captures the signature blend of dreamlike depth and raw emotion.

Chino tested the pedal live at the Deftones' massive set at Coachella and has been using it on their latest tour. All of that to 100% certified that this thing stands up to the insane expectations of everybody's ears!

This pedal merges lush filter modulation with analog-style delay to create immersive, melancholic textures that pull you in.

Features:

Filter-Delay Modulation Pedal
Filter Controls: Mix, modulate, and shape your movement.
Built-in Delay: Add spacious, tape-style echoes (up to 400ms).
True Bypass: Pure tone when off.
Internal Tweaks: Kill dry signal or control repeats for advanced routing.

Digital Bath is a filter-delay modulation pedal designed to dissolve your guitar signal into waves of dreamy textures and hypnotic echoes. Whether you're sculpting lush ambient landscapes or dialing in subtle movement beneath a heavy mix, this pedal is your invitation to sink into sound and stay there.

Each pedal is made in the EU

The pedal is a modern recreation of Chino's studio effect from the White Pony era, originally not a pedal form and not road-worthy.

Critic Reviews

“Digital Bath is the most complex pedal we have ever developed. It took us nearly two years to get it absolutely perfect”: KHDK teams up with Chino Moreno for a delay that promises “immersive, melancholic textures” and an iconic Deftones tone | MusicRadar

musicradar.com

The KHDK Digital Bath delay pedal, crafted in collaboration with Deftones' Chino Moreno, is a sonic marvel offering haunting echoes and dreamy textures. This pedal is a departure from KHDK's usual high-gain fare, providing a more gentle, nuanced sound suitable for shoegaze and atmospheric effects. Its analogue delay with filter modulation captures the lush tones from Deftones' White Pony album, promising an immersive auditory experience. Although its complexity took nearly two years to perfect, the result is a unique pedal with straightforward controls. However, its $249 price tag might be prohibitive for some, and the initial batch with signed certificates has already sold out. Nonetheless, for those seeking to explore new sonic landscapes, Digital Bath is a worthy investment.
