Eventide Rose Digital Delay Pedal with Analog Circuitry

Building on the original 1745 DDL, the Eventide Rose Delay is a stompbox meant for guitarists and line-level instrumentalists alike. It combines a digital delay with analog circuitry to give you the features of an analog bucket brigade delay without the sonic limitations inherent in that kind of design.

The delay itself stems from a variable digital clock that can be swept over a range of .01 μs to 50 seconds and then mangled or improved upon by a variety of controls. At full resolution, the delay can give you up to 10 seconds, but at lower fidelities, you can achieve up to 50 seconds of delay.

A low-pass filter, feedback knob, and modulation rate and depth controls are on hand. Five different types of modulation are available: sine wave, square wave, random, envelope, and external.

Speaking of the external jack, it can function as an expression, auxiliary or MIDI-via-TRS input, allowing you a lot of flexibility for control. Reverse delay and invert phase are other tonal variants that the pedal supplies, and with five factory presets, as well as the ability to assign various parameters to the HotSwitch, you’ll have plenty opportunities for experimentation.
