Inspired by a selection of 3 of EQD founder, Jamie Stillman’s favourite delay pedals, EarthQuacker Devices is pleased to offer the Silos Multi-Generational Time Reflection Device. With so many dsp multi-delay pedals available, often over-complicated with multitudes of knobs, screens and options, EarthQuacker set out to produce the highest quality, user and pedalboard-friendly multi-delay pedal available. With 3 distinct delay types (Digital, Analog and Tape), Tap Tempo, up to 1 second of delay time, 6 Presets and a user-assignable expression out, it’s hard not to see why this couldn’t easily fill the delay-shaped hole on any pedalboard!

Key Features:

  • 3 Delay Types: Based on 3 delays from Jamie Stillman’s personal collection the Silos offers a pristine Digital Delay, an Analog Delay based on a vintage KMD Analog Delay and a Tape mode voiced like a worn Echoplex.
  • 6 Preset Slots: Easily save and recall up to 6 preset delay sounds. Switch between ‘live Mode’ (green LED) or ‘preset Mode’ (Red LED) by simply holding down either the Activate switch or Preset button.
  • Analog Dry Through: Keep all the dynamics and organic nuances of your original guitar tone intact thanks to the EQD Silos’ fully analogue dry signal path.

Controls

With only 4 knobs, a 3-way mode switch as well as a save and recall preset button, the Silos is easy and intuitive to navigate. The Time knob goes up to a full 1 second of delay time on each mode with 500ms set to noon on the control. Repeats can be set for simple slapback to near infinite with the Silos going into self-oscillation once the repeat knob gets to around 3 o’clock. It features silent soft-touch switching with a buffered bypass and trials as well as EarthQuacker’s Flexi-Switch Technology for both latching and momentary operation. Perfect for adding just a second or two of delay without needing to tap dance.

Delay Pedals

Delay pedals repeat your guitar signal to create echoes, rhythmic patterns and spacious textures. They can be used subtly to add depth, or more dramatically for dotted-eighth repeats, slapback rockabilly sounds, ambient layers and experimental soundscapes.

Different delay types offer very different characters, from warm analogue repeats to clean digital echoes and tape-style modulation. A delay pedal is one of the most creative tools on a pedalboard because it can support simple lead lines, fill space in a mix and completely transform a part.

Guitar Pedals

Guitar Pedals is a useful category for players looking to shape their guitar or bass sound in a more focused way. Products in this area can help with tone, control, routing, performance or creative sound design depending on the exact type of gear involved.

For anyone building a pedalboard, guitar pedals options can help fill a specific gap in the signal chain or open up new sounds that are difficult to achieve with an amp alone. They are worth exploring when you want a more personal, flexible and practical setup.

Delay

Delay pedals repeat the guitar signal to create echoes, rhythmic patterns and spacious textures ranging from short slapback repeats through to huge ambient soundscapes. Different delay styles such as analogue, digital and tape-inspired circuits all produce their own character and response.

Delay is one of the most creative effects available because it can add depth, groove and atmosphere without overwhelming the original guitar tone. It is widely used across rock, blues, indie, ambient, progressive and experimental music.

Guitar Pedal

Guitar Pedal pedals and related effects are commonly used by guitarists looking to shape their tone in a more focused and creative way. Different designs offer their own response, feel and tonal character depending on the style of music and the type of amplifier or guitar being used.

Many players build pedalboards gradually over time, combining different effects and utilities to create a setup that suits their own sound and workflow. Guitar Pedal related gear can play an important role in both live performance and studio recording.
