Old Tapes is our clone of the OOP Earthquaker Devices Disaster Transport Jr.* delay pedal. It's an analog voiced digital delay designed to have the peculiarities of a vintage tape echo. This pedal has a delay time that ranges from about 30ms to 625ms, and also has a built in EQ/tone control that doubles as a noise filter on longer delay settings. We've also added a momentary "Hold" foot switch that sends the delay into self oscillation for as long as you hold it, and then returns to your original delay time set with the "Cycles" knob.

Knob Description:

Time: Fully counterclockwise is about 30ms up to about 625ms fully clockwise

Cycles: This sets the regeneration of the delay line. Take it from a single repeat fully counterclockwise up to full on self oscillation fully clockwise.

Mix: Adjusts the output volume of the effected signal. Unity is around noon and everything above that boosts the delayed signal louder than the original. This acts as a gain control, so expect the signal to introduce noise/distortion at louder settings.

EQ: Adjusts the tone of the delayed signal. You can use this control as a noise filter for longer delay times by setting it between fully counterclockwise and noon. This will remove any common noise from hyperextending the circuit.

Bypass (Foot Switch): Activates the pedal or bypasses it.

Hold (Foot Switch): Sends the signal into momentary self oscillation for as long as you hold the switch.

This pedal has true bypass switching. Requires a 9 volt DC power supply with a 2.1mm negative center barrel.

We’re a small group of nerds from Southern Wisconsin, USA that loves music and the smell of solder. We hand make all our pedals, so there may be small blemishes in the finish, and that’s just part of the charm (when you’re stomping on these, your foot and your ears won’t even notice). We mostly enjoy making clones of OOP pedals, but occasionally enjoy cloning/modifying current production circuits that we really like.
