Main features:
The BBD technology provides a characteristic warm, "lo-fi" sound that is loved by musicians for creating psychedelic effects.

Operation: The front panel has a "Delay" knob to adjust the echo time and pushbuttons for "Reverb Expand," which acts as a feedback setting for repeats.

Connections:
Equipped with RCA line-level connections, intended to be placed in the tape loop of an amplifier.

Microphone input: Has a 6.35 mm jack input on the front with its own volume control for karaoke or recordings.

Design: The unit features a brushed aluminum front panel with side panels.

Originally sold to give home stereo installations more "spatialness."

Musicians value the unit for its unique feedback and the fact that the pitch changes when you turn the delay knob while sound is playing.
