Chase Bliss Audio Announces the MOOD Granual Micro-Looper / Delay Pedal

Chase Bliss Audio MOOD PedalChase Bliss Audio has introduced the MOOD, which is a two-channel granular micro-looper and delay pedal. The new stompbox is also a collaboration with three options for how the channels are internally routed.

“Drolo FX is behind the loop channel, a collection of always-listening micro-loopers, and Old Blood Noise Endeavors offer us the wet channel, a suite of live spatial effects,” Chase Bliss explains. “We have three different options for how the channels are internally routed. Run a time-stretched loop through a cloud of delay taps, re-record it and carry on. Overdub, freeze, dissolve, smear. The device’s heart is the clock control, which slows or accelerates both sides simultaneously in harmonized steps. Instantly turn a loop into rolling chirps, or divide a reverb down into atmospheric noise.”

The all-analog MOOD has six independent algorithms over its two channels: Reverb, Delay, Slip, Env, Tape, and Stretch. It has full MIDI capabilities plus 16 dip switches in the back for use with an expression pedal or CV.
