Here's what Dreadbox say about the Raindrops
Dreadbox Raindrops is a Hybrid Delay/Pitch Shifter/Reverb pedal that takes the concept of short echos on a different level. It is equipped with multiple delay stages and different chips and you can choose between 3 different play modes, where in each one you can have a whole new experience and alternative soundscapes. You can achieve from simple short echoes, to long, dirty and lo-fi delays and from simple pitch shifting bursts to extensively lasting reverbs.

About Dreadbox
We have new and used Dreadbox gear available on our website for fast direct delivery direct to you from across sellers in all areas of the USA & UK.
Dreadbox is a Greek company known for its high-quality analogue synthesizers, effects pedals, and modular gear. Originally focused on synth design, Dreadbox expanded into guitar effects, creating pedals that bring rich, atmospheric textures and deep analogue tones. Their pedals, such as the **Raindrops** delay/reverb and **Komet** distortion, are celebrated for their lush, organic sound and hands-on control. With a strong emphasis on analogue circuitry and innovative designs, Dreadbox appeals to musicians looking for unique, expressive effects that stand out from the crowd.
Delay
A delay pedal is used to create an echo effect by repeating the original sound after a short time. It works by capturing the input signal and then replaying it with adjustable delay time and feedback. The longer the delay time and the more feedback, the more pronounced the repeating echo becomes, adding depth and space to the sound.
There are different types of delay pedals, including analogue, digital, and tape delay. Analog delay provides a warmer, more natural echo, while digital delay offers clear, precise repeats and additional features like tap tempo. Tape delay mimics the sound of vintage tape machines, adding a distinctive, slightly warbled effect. Delay pedals are widely used across genres to create atmosphere, enhance solos, or add complexity to rhythms.

Pitch
Pitch in the context of guitar effects refers to the perceived frequency of a sound, which determines whether a note is high or low. Pitch-shifting pedals manipulate this frequency, allowing players to alter the pitch of their notes, creating a range of effects from subtle harmonies to extreme octave shifts. These pedals are commonly used to add depth, width, or uniqueness to a performance, enabling effects such as octave up/down, harmonising, or even creating entire new melodies.
Popular pitch-shifting pedals like the Digitech WH-1 Whammy and Eventide H9 provide the ability to bend pitch in real time or shift the pitch of entire chords, giving musicians the tools to create everything from dramatic sweeping effects to more precise pitch adjustments. The ability to shift pitch without altering the tone allows for creative exploration in live performances or studio recordings, expanding musical possibilities with ease.
Reverb
Reverb simulates the natural echoes and reflections of sound in different spaces, adding depth and atmosphere to a guitar’s tone. It can range from short, subtle room reverbs to large, ambient cathedral-like spaces. Common types of reverb include spring reverb (found in vintage amplifiers), plate reverb (a smooth studio-style effect), and shimmer reverb (which adds ethereal, harmonised overtones). Reverb is essential in many genres, from surf rock and blues to shoegaze and ambient music. Popular reverb pedals include the Boss RV-6, Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail, and Strymon BigSky, offering everything from classic warmth to expansive soundscapes.
