The Walrus Audio ARP-87 is your one-stop shop for all things delay—compact, powerful, and packed with tone-shaping versatility. With four distinct algorithms—Digital, Analog, Lo-Fi, and Slap—the ARP-87 lets you dial in everything from clean, rhythmic repeats to warbly, vintage-style textures. Whether you're after pristine clarity, warm ambiance, gritty nostalgia, or snappy slapback, this pedal delivers in style. Each mode unlocks unique character, while the X knob provides extra tweakability—modulation depth for most modes and filter width in Lo-Fi for that AM-radio vibe. Add in onboard tap tempo, momentary ramping, and smart bypass switching, and you’ve got a delay that’s as creative as it is convenient. From subtle ambience to spacey trails, the ARP-87 is ready to spark inspiration. Trails Mode The ARP-87 can be run in trails or no trails mode. In trails mode, when you turn the pedal off, the delay trails die off naturally. In no trails mode, the delay trails are abruptly cut off when you turn the pedal off. To toggle between either mode, hold down the bypass switch for 1 second while applying power to the pedal. Unplug power and repeat to toggle to the other mode. Momentary Functions When the switch is in off position, press and hold the Bypass Switch to temporarily activate the effect to add a moment of delay texture. Releasing the switch turns the effect off. When the effect is on, press and hold the bypass switch to momentarily ramp the X parameter to maximum. Releasing the switch sets the X parameter back to the knob location. Press and hold the Tap Switch to temporarily ramp the feedback to maximum. Release to set the feedback back to the knob location.
