AKAI DEEP IMPACT BASS SYNTH PEDAL WITH BOX

A super rare version 2 of the already rare EAR Ad4096. Has been a staple on my board for years but I have recently downsized and doesn’t fit any longer. Took me ages to find one and has been the best delay I have ever used. insanely good. It works with both instrument and line level applications, meaning you can use it for guitar, keyboards, and even pro-audio mixing. The new Mix knob allows you to fade between dry and wet signals – perfect for dialing in just the right amount of delay, or capturing the wet only sound for a mix buss. The Loop jack allows you to add effects inside the delay loop. This means if you put a pitch shifter pedal inside the loop, every time the repeat goes around the loop, it will be transposed again and again. You can even add another AD4096 mk2 (or your old AD4096) inside the delay loop for a multi-tap delay sound. The bypass switch is now buffered to allow for delay tails and looping, and to prevent bypass clicking. The way the bypass switch works is programmed by two of the controls on the DIP switch on the back of the pedal. The Infinity Mode you know and love can now be used as to get the “sound on sound” when using the TAILS DIP switch. The Filter switch applies a fixed high pass filter to the incoming signal before it passes to the delay loop to cut out muddy bass frequencies. Use the Clear dip switch to cut even more low frequency. Expression pedal inputs are provided for the Time, Rate, Depth, Mix and Repeats controls, allowing you to bring life to your performance, and do some really interesting things, including real-time analog pitch bending that sounds like tape warble! An upcoming affordable companion pedal will allow you to store and recall tempos for the delay time through the tap tempo input. You’ll also be able to stay lock-step with your DAW at a precise BPM. You can also send click track from your DAW to the Clock input on the delay pedal. To top it all off, this hand-made, through-hole component, all-analog pedal will have beautiful colored rocker switches and will be housed in a box designed by Endangered Audio Research and handmade locally in the mountains of Asheville, North Carolina. Also, the custom-molded unique rectangle light lens will pulse with the tempo of the delay with a specially-selected LED that looks like a soft white incandescent bulb. FEATURES Knobs: Time – Up to 800ms of delay time Mix – Fades between wet and dry signals Repeats – Controls the amount of feedback in the delay line Depth – Controls the amount of modulation in the delay line Rate – Controls the speed or ratio of the modulation Voice – Adds the AD4096 “ECHO” voice as an independent sub mix that allows some incredibly unique mixing options for the voices. Rocker Switches: Feedback – Switches the feedback loop of the delay line out for many unique effects, pitch bends and chorus without delay Filter – Applies a high-pass filter to the signal as it enters the delay loop (not within the delay loop). Dry signal is unaffected by the filter. Infinity – Turns sound-on-sound infinitely sustaining delay mode on or off. Multitap – sends both BBD outputs to the Repeats and Mix similar to a multi head tape delay. Footswitches: Bypass – Buffered bypass switch. The switch is buffered to allow delay tails and to prevent the dreaded true-bypass clicking. The switch is also softer than a true-bypass switch and smooth and easy to switch. Expand – Soft switch that increases Repeats to 100% at a rate determined by the delay time. This level can be controlled by the Mix. Tempo – Tap Tempo footswitch with ratios Jacks: Input – Audio in Output – Audio out Modulation Rate Expression Pedal – Controls the modulation rate or ratio remotely Modulation Depth Expression Pedal – Controls the modulation depth remotely Clock Input – Accepts external clock signals to sync the delay time Time Expression Pedal – control delay time remotely Repeats Expression Pedal – control repeats remotely Loop – Use an insert cable to patch the delay line through other effects Mix Expression Pedal – control the effect mix remotely Power – Requires industry standard Tip Negative 9VDC 115mA. Power supply not included. Note: When using expression pedals, the control knob on the pedal can be used to scale the range of the expression pedal. DIP Switches: Delay Ratio – programs one of four delay ratios Delay Ratio – programs one of four delay ratios Mod Ratio – Switches the Modulation Rate control between varible and ratio mode Offset – this will offset the modulation waveform relative to the delay time Tails – On/Off Clear – Intensifies the low frequency cut when using the Filter Note: – the two delay ratio switches are used in combination to program tempo ratios 1:1 Quarter Note 3:4 Dotted Eighth 1:3 Eighth Note Triplet 2:3 Quarter Note Triplet Light: Rectangular incandescent-looking white light that indicates on/off state as well as blinking the delay tempo Pedal Dimensions L 162mm (6 1/4″) W 154mm (6″) H 73mm (2 7/8″)
