Carl Martin DeLayla User Manual

Manual

The Carl Martin DeLayla was designed and developed
with one goal in mind:To create a superior analogue delay
pedal, incorporating some of the same features used in
vintage tape delay units. To achieve this, we have incor­porated a second delay tap (similar to using two heads
simultaneously on a tape delay).
The TAP footswitch is used to turn the second tap on or
off.
The TAP knob controls the mix of main delay vs. second
tap delay. Clockwise movement favours the second tap;
counter clockwise favours the main delay.
The unit also features a built in regulated (+-12V) power
supply.
The result is a warm, smooth sound reminiscent of the
vintage tape units used in the 50's and 60's.
The DeLayla is able to capture one of the hardest sounds:
that au-thentic rock 'n roll slapback echo that digital
processors are unable to emulate.
