The DOD Drag Analog Delay Pedal takes classic analogue delay into entirely new territory with a feature set designed for adventurous players. Built around authentic analogue BBD circuitry it delivers everything from tight rockabilly slapback echoes to expansive modulated ambient textures. With up to 750ms of delay time extended to 1.5 seconds when using Rubbernecking mode the Drag combines vintage warmth with innovative real-time manipulation tools that push far beyond the capabilities of a conventional delay pedal. Its compact top-jack design also keeps your pedalboard tidy without sacrificing functionality. At the heart of the Drag are DODs unique Friction effects including SlideStop Rubberneck and Evade modes which allow dramatic delay-time warping controlled directly from the footswitch. The Drift control adds modulation with selectable sine reverse saw square and random waveforms while dedicated controls for time feedback filter level drift and friction provide extensive sound-shaping potential. Add controllable runaway oscillation multiple bypass modes optional FS3X expansion and a reversible StagePlate for optimised pedalboard use and the Drag becomes a powerful creative tool for players seeking inspiring analogue delay sounds.

DOD

DOD, or Digitech/DOD Electronics, is a renowned brand in the world of audio electronics, particularly known for its effects pedals for guitars and basses. The company was founded in 1973 by David Oreste Di Francesco and John Johnson, hence the acronym DOD. Initially focusing on guitar effects pedals, DOD gained prominence with its innovative designs and affordable yet high-quality products.

Throughout its history, DOD has produced a wide range of effects pedals, including overdrive/distortion pedals, delay units, chorus and flanger pedals, and more. Their pedals often feature robust construction, simple yet effective controls, and distinctive sound characteristics. Classics like the DOD Overdrive/Preamp 250 and the DOD Stereo Chorus have become staples on pedalboards of musicians across various genres.

In 1984, DOD was acquired by Harman International Industries, which also owned other prominent audio brands like AKG, JBL, and Lexicon. Under Harman’s ownership, DOD continued to innovate and release new pedals while maintaining its reputation for providing high-quality effects at accessible prices. Though there have been shifts in ownership and product lines over the years, DOD pedals remain highly regarded by musicians seeking reliable and versatile effects for their performances and recordings.

Delay Pedals

Delay records the incoming signal for a chosen interval and repeats it after the original note. Feedback returns repeats to the delay line, while tone, filtering, modulation and saturation determine whether echoes remain clear, darken progressively, wobble like tape or degrade like analogue bucket-brigade circuits. Delay time and rhythmic subdivisions govern the spacing and musical pattern of the repeats.

Analogue

The signal is shaped by continuously varying electronic circuitry rather than being converted into a digital effect algorithm. Component choice, operating voltage and circuit tolerances influence headroom, noise, clipping texture and the small variations in response between designs.

Bass

Voiced or equipped to retain low-frequency fundamentals and the higher headroom of a bass signal. Clean blends, crossovers and bass-specific filter ranges can preserve weight and articulation while the effected portion adds harmonics, movement or ambience.
