EarthQuaker Devices Announces the Silos™ Multi-Generational Time Reflection Device

AKRON, OHIO, AUGUST 2024 – EarthQuaker Devices has taken a digital delay, an analog delay, and a tape delay and merged them all together as one pedal with six presets, a tap-tempo, and user assignable expression control. It all started when EQD founder Jamie Stillman was admiring his three favorite delay pedals from his personal collection and began ruminating on their vast differences. This sparked an ambitious foray into uncharted territory in finding a way to assemble them all together as one uncomplicated unit. After months of tinkering, his mission was accomplished and the Silos™ was born. With just four knobs, one three-way switch, one Save/Recall button, and two footswitches, he made the impossible possible and now your guitar playing shall reap the rewards!

Each of the three modes offers up to one second of delay time. From noon and back is 500 milliseconds to zero, which has its own character. From 500 milliseconds to one second of delay time, it’s an entirely different beast. Dial them in for shorter delay times where they really excel and add loads of atmosphere and vibes. Push them further for rhythmic delays that are perfect for strumming and adding extra ambiance for your riffs. And the tap tempo is truly precise and responsive so you can lock in your rate quickly within the first revolutions.

TECH SPECS:

Each of the three modes offers up to one second of delay time:
- - Digital delay mode offers nearly infinite repeats that hold their fidelity while gradually rolling off the top end with each regeneration
  - Analog delay mode is more mid-focused in the initial attack and gradually degrades while getting darker with each repeat
  - Tape delay mode resembles an old, well-loved tape delay with all its glorious artifacts. Dark and moody with just a hint of distortion when you hit it just right.
