The AUTO DELAY offers you three unique and radiant-sounding algorithms, delivering the best of classical analog and digital delay landscapes. TAPE algorithm mimics the tone control section, tape saturation, and compression of a vintage tape echo. We have deliberately not emulated the typical wow and flutter effects associated with tape delays, as these sounds can be achieved by automating the TIME parameter in numerous ways. ANALOG algorithm replicates the tonal response of a vintage high-quality studio bucket-brigade delay. Automating the TIME parameter while the REPEATS level is set high produces classic and warm pitch-shifted delay tails. DIGITAL algorithm is intended to be used when the delay signal needs to be precisely the same as the input signal without any signal coloring. Clear and spectrally precise repeats with the TONE knob set in the center position with the ability to automate the tone to become darker or brighter. CONTROLS REPEAT determines the number of repeats. The lowest setting produces zero repeats. When turned completely clockwise, the delay goes into an infinite feedback loop. TONE controls the coloration of all currently sounding delay tails. The character of the TONE circuit is dependent on the selected algorithm. TIME adjusts the delay time from 40 milliseconds to 2 seconds. TRACK TEMPO AND PANNING The AUTO Delay features an innovative approach to the tap tempo function: TRACK TEMPO. When you push and hold both footswitches at the same time, the AUTO Delay uses its dynamic tracking capabilities to determine the tempo of your strumming and sets the TIME parameter value accordingly. The pedal also features three stereo panning modes: OFF; 50%, or 100% (ping-pong).
