Benson Amps Delay Pedal - Musical Tape-Inspired Echo | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls
Introduction
The Benson Amps Delay Pedal delivers beautifully musical echo with colorful, floaty repeats and organic degradation inspired by classic tape and bucket brigade designs. This professional-grade time-based effect offers an impressive range from subtle chorus to haunting soundscapes with intuitive controls and innovative features. Perfect for players seeking vintage-inspired echoes with modern reliability and unprecedented musical flexibility.
Product Overview
H2 Heading: Product Overview
The Benson Delay features a meticulously engineered analog-voiced circuit built around a carefully implemented PT2399 chip, resulting in warm, organic repeats that avoid the typical digital harshness found in many modern delay pedals. The proprietary design incorporates a gooey compander chip, analog filtering, and precision gain staging to create a uniquely musical echo character.
With an extensive delay time range spanning from 30ms to 1250ms, the pedal offers everything from subtle doubling and chorus effects to spacious ambient textures. The innovative self-calibrating tap tempo system (powered by refined Bontempo technology) provides unparalleled accuracy, while the adjustable LFO with multiple waveforms adds dimension through authentic tape-like modulation.
This thoughtfully designed delay pedal excels at time manipulation while maintaining exceptional sound quality during adjustments—eliminating the digital artifacts and glitches commonly experienced when changing delay time on the fly. The self-oscillation feature, accessible via the tap/hold footswitch, opens up expressive sonic territories from subtle sustain to otherworldly sound design possibilities.
