Full Description
View Full DescriptionThree unique delay modes
The Silos Multi-Generational Time Reflection Device features three distinct delay modes, each offering a different flavour of delay. Mode D is a bright digital delay, providing clear, punchy repeats that stay sharp as they decay. Mode A offers a darker, more mid-focused analog delay, perfect for adding texture without overpowering your mix. Mode T brings in the warm, vintage charm of tape delay, with slightly worn-out tones reminiscent of classic oil can delays. With up to one second of delay time available, you can craft everything from short, rhythmic echoes to expansive, ambient soundscapes.
Six customizable presets
Save and recall your favourite settings easily with six available preset slots. Whether you’ve dialled in the perfect delay for a solo or a subtle background echo, the Silos lets you store and retrieve your sounds with a simple press. The presets capture not only the time, repeats, and mix settings, but also your chosen delay mode and any expression pedal assignments, allowing you to switch between different sounds quickly during live performances.
Assignable expression control
The Silos takes versatility a step further by allowing you to assign any TRS expression pedal to control key parameters such as delay time, repeats, or mix. This user-assignable expression control gives you real-time manipulation over the effect, enabling dynamic adjustments during a performance. You can easily add more feedback, adjust the delay time, or control the wet/dry mix without touching the pedal’s knobs, expanding your creative possibilities.
Built for live performance
Designed with live musicians in mind, the Silos features two operating modes: Live and Preset. In Live mode, the pedal reacts to the current knob settings, while in Preset mode, it recalls your stored sounds, making it easy to switch between delay styles on the fly. Tap tempo allows you to sync your delays perfectly with the rhythm, making it a powerful tool for both rhythmic and ambient applications. Whether you're playing with clean tones or heavy distortion, the Silos delivers consistent, high-quality sound.
