Frequently Asked Questions
The TimeFactor offers a depth and breadth of delay types and customization that basic pedals simply can't match, but that complexity comes at a cost in ease of use.
The switchable input/output levels make it fully usable with bass, though you'll want to be mindful of headroom at higher gain settings.
It offers comprehensive MIDI control over nearly every parameter, but setting it up requires understanding MIDI basics and Eventide's MIDI implementation.
