Earthquaker Devices Introduces the Silos Delay Pedal

Earthquaker Devices has introduced Silos, which they call a “multi-generational time reflection device.” The pedal offers three delay modes – Digital, Analog, and Tape – each offering up to one second of delay time.
“In addition to the tri-voice delay, it features tap tempo, user-assignable expression control, and the ability to save and recall six presets, making it endlessly customizable and easy to operate,” EQD writes. “It’s like having three classic pedals all rolled into one! Now you can save room on your pedalboard while never having to decide which single delay to use again.”
The Silos was designed to respond well to gain and overdrive, they add. Hear the pedal on bass towards the end of Earthquaker’s demo video:
The Silos is available now for $149.
