TC ELECTRONIC VINTAGE DELAY.
The Vintage Delay will instantly bring you back to the days of warm,
lush, all-tube echoes, and at the same time it connects you to the
state-of-the-art digital delays of today. It builds on the legacy of
the classic TC 2290, the holy grail of delays. Resurrect the tape echo
of the 60�s, recreate the analog temperate sound of the tubes, or be
cool with the studio quality delays. Tap-tempo lets you set the pace,
and several control knobs gives you the power to be delayed, but not
late.
CONTROLS:
Delay Time � Sets the delay time. The delay time can be set from approx. 10ms to 1500ms.
Feedback Level � Sets the amount of signal that is fed back to the input of the delay line. The higher setting the more delay repeats.
Delay Level � Controls the level of the delay repeats.
Output Level � Output level for the effect.
Filter
� To reproduce the slight deterioration of the delay repeats that was
significant to old tape echoes the Filter can be switched on. This
function gives a warmer sound on the delay repeats that allows long
relatively loud delay repeats to blend much better in your overall
sound.
Triplets � In off
position (up), the tapped tempo equals the delay time between the
repeats. If you e.g. tap quarter notes at tempo 120BPM, the delay will
repeat times 2 per second. When the triplet function is activated � the
delay repeats will play quarter note triplets according to the tapped
tempo. That means 6 repeats per bar.

HARMONY CENTRAL USER REVIEWS:
Ease of Use: 10
Easy,
easy. Tap tempo is a must for any gigging player, but most analog
pedals don't offer it. Who's gonna bend over all night, messing with
the delay time for each tune? Not me, dude! I had a Maxxon AD900 and
returned it when I saw this. Comparable sound, but you can work with
this! Very compact and lightweight, also.
Sound Quality: 10
Very
quiet. Sounds buttery and smooth like analog, but performs with digital
utility. I A/B'd it against the Maxxon AD900, and could discern little
difference at home while critically listening.
