Product Introduction
They called it “the most ambitious and foolish thing we’ve ever done.” And then they built it anyway.
Here’s why it’s foolish: a true‑stereo analog preamp sits at the input, running your dry signal through real transistors before it ever touches a chip. A stereo analog limiter lives inside the feedback loop, so each repeat hits a living, breathing saturation circuit — not an algorithm modeling one. Six faders give you direct, tactile control over parameters most pedals bury in menus. A 32‑bit/48kHz digital engine handles modulation, multi‑tap, diffusion, and sequencing with surgical precision. All of it runs true‑stereo with analog dry‑through.
Here’s why it’s ambitious: this architecture didn’t exist before. Early 80s rackmount delays mixed analog and digital components out of necessity — the tech was limited, so engineers got creative. This pedal takes that spirit and pushes it further than anyone has in a stompbox format. The COLOR fader drives the analog preamp from warm saturation to snarling overdrive. The CLUSTER fader adds up to 32 taps and smears them into lush diffusion. The TILT EQ lets you darken the repeats while keeping the attack bright, or vice versa. Hold SHIFT and every fader unlocks a second parameter — 11 alt controls in total.
Connect it via MIDI for clock sync and program changes. Feed it CV. Plug in an expression pedal. Patch it in stereo, mono, or mono‑to‑stereo. This is a delay that asks you to explore, rewards your curiosity, and occasionally surprises you with sounds you didn’t know you could make.
“Foolish”? Maybe. Unforgettable? Absolutely.
Product Features
🎚️Hybrid Analog/Digital Signal Path: Real Circuits, Real Response
The dry signal passes through a stereo analog preamp with genuine gain staging before conversion. Inside the feedback loop, a stereo analog limiter saturates each repeat — actual circuitry breathing with your signal. The 32‑bit/48kHz digital core handles pristine multi‑tap, surgical modulation, and precise sequencing without ever sounding sterile. True‑stereo processing throughout with analog dry‑through.
🎛️Six Faders + Deep Control: No Menus, Just Sculpting
COLOR (preamp gain/saturation). TIME (delay time). CLUSTER (taps/diffusion). TILT EQ (frequency split). FEEDBACK (loop gain). WET (effect level). Six dedicated faders put core sound‑shaping under your fingers. Hold SHIFT and access 11 more parameters — modulation depth, tap spacing, diffusion amount, and more. It’s the immediacy of analog controls with the depth of a digital engine.
🎶Modulation, Diffusion & Sequencing: Movement That Evolves
Built‑in LFO offers multiple waveform types for classic chorus, vibrato, and pitch‑warble on repeats. Diffusion smears multi‑tap echoes into ambient washes. The sequencer lets you program interval‑based delay times for pitch‑shifted patterns. Tempo sync keeps everything locked. Every repeat can be different from the last — delay as an instrument, not a utility.
🔌Studio‑Grade Connectivity: Fit Into Any Rig
Stereo I/O, MIDI in (clock, program change, CC), CV and expression inputs, external footswitch support, and internal preset storage. Supports mono, stereo, or mono‑to‑stereo configurations. This pedal adapts to your setup, not the other way around.
