Unleash the full potential of your guitar's tonal landscape with the Maxon AD-999 Pro Analog Delay. This pedal seamlessly combines the best elements of Maxon's acclaimed AD999 and AD-9 Pro circuits, delivering up to 900 milliseconds of rich, warm analog delay. At the heart of this powerhouse are four custom-made Maxon MC4107D bucket brigade ICs, ensuring that each note you play retains its character while exploring new sonic dimensions.

What sets the AD-999 Pro apart is its advanced noise reduction technology. Using Maxon's proprietary RMS level sensor and companding circuitry, this pedal minimizes unwanted noise, providing a pristine, low-noise delay experience that is hard to find in other analog units. Whether you're crafting ambient soundscapes or intricate rhythmic patterns, the AD-999 Pro's dynamic range accommodates any musical expression, effortlessly handling input levels up to +12 dB.

For those seeking versatility, the "Multi-Head" mode is a game-changer. With three top-mounted mini switches, you can replicate the lush complexity of Tape Echo multi-head operation, creating everything from triplet to sixteenth-note rhythms. This feature is perfect for achieving both classic and modern delay effects, whether you're aiming for a vintage Tape Echo vibe or a grand concert hall reverberation.

Complete with stereo outputs for panning your delay signal and a robust DC-to-DC voltage converter, the AD-999 Pro ensures consistent performance in any setting. This pedal is your ticket to exploring the vast possibilities of delay, all while preserving the warmth and integrity of your analog tone.
