Frequently Asked Questions

The dual-chip design allows for more intricate delay patterns and a wider range of sonic textures, as the two delays can interact and create unique effects.
You'll need a standard 9V DC power supply with a 2.1mm x 5.5mm barrel connector and center-negative polarity; using the wrong polarity can damage the pedal.
While it can create obvious effects, the individual decay controls allow for very subtle, ambient delay washes when mixed low, making it versatile for both applications.
