Delay Time – This Time control roughly sets the length between your repeats between 40ms and 600ms. This range is well suited for classic, vintage delay sounds that are great for slap-back or medium length delay times.
Regen – This control sets the number of repeats. You can set this for a single slap back echo or turn it up for a runaway, self-oscillating or self-regenerating echoes. (Now go back and twist the Time control for some crazy sounds!)
Delay Level – The Level control is your mix, how loud you want to hear the echoes.
WOW AND FLUTTER CONTROLS
Depth – Turn this control to achieve deeper and deeper chorusing and pitch shifting on your echoes. As you raise the control the Depth and Rate LED will start to glow giving you a visual indication as to the amount of modulation you are applying to the repeats.
Rate – This is your Flutter control. It’s another way to control how poorly your tape echo is performing! Not that any tape deck was every in this bad of condition, but it sure sounds good to have a little pitch modulation on your echo! Using these controls gives you a nice way to create unique and very musical delays.
Whether you’re into Rockabilly slap-back echoes, experimental sounds, or just want a great classic rock sounding echo, the Magnetic Echo will sound great in your rig.
Keeley Electronics started to develop and produce this delay way back in 2005. But as things happened, we worked on other projects, always keeping an eye on the growing delay and echo market. We sure you will be very happy with the tone of this echo/delay/modulation effect.
It’s pretty clear from this unbiased shoot-out that the Magnetic Echo wins. The delays sound more like the original and not as filtered and cut off. The modulation is more sophisticated. Price point is the same!
We get it. There’s a wealth of pedalboard switching devices on the market and some can be quite complex, but what if you want to keep switching between multiple pedals on your board simple, easy to use and yet still effective? Well, the KMA Machines DUAL LOOP SWITCHER pedal has you covered and has been created with a focus on durability, reliability, simplicity and hassle-free operation to expand your creativity.
Whether you’re looking to simply switch between two single pedals without extended tap dancing or combine and switch between two entirely separate signal chains, this helpful utility device features KMA’s active circuitry and soft switching for maximum signal integrity without compromise. Plus, with full Stereo/Dual Mono operation the DUAL LOOP SWITCHER allows for maximum flexibility.
There’s nothing new about ABY boxes. They’re a very commonly used accessory and a staple part of many setups out there. But if they are so common, then (until we launched our passive Stereo ABY) why was it so difficult to find one in a stereo format that’s well built, noise-free AND affordable? This is a question we kept encountering as we use many stereo devices daily here at KMA, plus we know that a lot of users are just as mesmerised by the wide sonic worlds of stereo as we are. So, we made a killer stereo ABY switcher to use here at our workshop. In the process we found it so useful, so we decided to make the original STEREO ABY available to the world too in a pedal format.
However, despite our passive boxes gracing thousands of rigs the world over, the Active STEREO ABY takes things a little further and is ideal for those who like to use the Y splitting or combining functions – at least with some signals that don’t always play nicely together, due to often differing impedances between connected devices. With KMA’s high quality active buffer, the pedal can also help eliminate level mismatches or even signal loss, if used with long cable runs.
Whether you’re looking to switch or combine a Stereo input signal between two separate destinations or switch or combine two separate Stereo input signals into a single stereo output without signal loss, the KMA Machines STEREO ABY pedal is a dependable little helper for your tonal quest – the fate of your Stereo signals is in your hands!
ABY boxes are not something that will set the world on fire. We know that. But what a good ABY box can do, is start a flame that’ll fully ignite your creativity, and our Active ABY pedal is a REALLY GOOD one. Expertly built, noise-free, gorgeous looks AND affordable – it just ticks all the boxes.
As an additional offering to our Passive ABY box that has graced thousands of rigs the world over, the Active ABY is ideal for those who like to use the Y splitting or combining functions – at least with some signals that don’t always play nicely together, due to often differing impedances between connected devices. With KMA’s high quality active buffer, the pedal can also help with level mismatches or signal loss due to long cable runs.
Whether you’re looking to switch or combine your Mono input signal using two separate outputs, switch or combine two separate input signals into one output, the Active ABY pedal is a dependable little helper for your tonal quest – the fate of your signal is in your hands!
