Description

Edit description

Dark, lush repeats are the name of the game. Controls include Repeats, Mix, Time, and Filter. Our unique Filter control can be used to alter the overall tone of the repeats, as well as filter in or out the tape-like artifacts produced at longer delay times. The 3-way Tap Division switch is used to toggle between Quarter, Dotted Eighth, or Eighth Note divisions. To summarize: luscious, dark repeats; analog voicing; three tap divisions; soft touch, true-bypass switching; on-board tap tempo; and external tap in / tap out.

Works great, and is reasonably priced but it can be better.

The pedal looks clean and since it's an analog delay it woks great for OSDM. The tap tempo switch is quite handy for varying the speed of the delay. It's sounds kinda too clean for an analog pedal though, so if you're a fan of dirty and extremely lo-fi sounding analog delay pedals then this pedal ain't right for you. However if you're looking for an analog delay pedal which sounds quite clean by analog delay standards then just go for this pedal. It strikes the perfect balance between clarity and the analog warmth.

However there are many things which need to be improved in case of this pedal, it needs a volume knob to fine tune the volume of the delay repeats, it also needs a tone knob to boost highs and cut lows or cut highs and boost lows according the needs of the user, it requires more tap divisions, it needs options for 8th note triplet (1/3) and quarter note triplet (2/3) tap divisions, and it needs an expression jack to control various parameters.

Of course those additions will increase the price to some extent but I don't think there would be a significant increase in price.
