It's here and it's spectacular! Sending V2 is EAE's very particular love letter to the humble bucket brigade device. It is a maximalist effort to embrace their quirks while also ensuring optimal sound quality and versatility. The original version combined a colorful discrete preamp (which, after dozens of twists and turns, became the primary gain stage of the Halberd) with a high headroom MN3005 delay that had basic tap tempo control. The new version, while similar in spirit, is a near total redesign. The only idea they really kept was the inclusion of a compelling discrete preamp to overdrive the delay circuitry—though even that is a completely new design! Otherwise, EAE has combined a sophisticated analog delay circuit with a 32-bit processor to integrate digital control as seamlessly as possible. Here are some features: A full second of delay using a pair of MN3005s, extendable to a deliciously aliased 2 seconds if you push it with tap tempo or MIDI. Every knob can be controlled via MIDI CC or saved as a preset (including the wet/dry mix and preamp gain!) Tap tempo that ramps feedback when held down An insert loop to add external effects to the delay path 3 presets via the front panel, up to 32 via MIDI Multi-function LFO to modulate the delay time Assignable expression control Firmware updates via the MIDI jack using a portal on our website (hell yeah) This next level BBD delay is powerful and sounds amazing. It'll ship fast and free cuz that's how we be!
