Unlock a world of delay possibilities with one versatile pedal.

The Silos Multi-Generational Time Reflection Device gives you an all-in-one delay effects solution. This pedal combines digital, analog and tape delay types into a single unit with six presets, tap tempo and expression control for crafting your perfect echo.

Three Classic Delays in One Pedal

With the Silos, you get iconic delay flavors in one compact pedal. The digital delay provides pristine repeats with a shimmering high end. The analog delay emulates a vintage bucket-brigade device for warm, saturated echoes. And the tape delay recreates the warble and modulation of an antique tape echo machine. With up to one second of delay time per mode, you can get short slapback rhythms or ambient washes of echo. Switch between the modes or blend them together for unique hybrid sounds.

Save and Recall Your Favorite Settings

Dial in your ideal delay recipe and save it to one of the Silos' six preset locations. The Save/Recall button lets you store each preset for instant recall whenever you want that exact tone again. With three delay types and various parameter options for each, the possibilities for crafting presets are nearly endless. The presets also make this pedal ideal for quickly changing between different delay needs for different songs or sections during a live set.

Control Your Echoes With Expression

Connect an expression pedal to the Silos for foot control over delay level, feedback or other parameters depending on the selected delay mode. With an expression pedal, you can smoothly transition delay effects for a dramatic swell or manually manipulate the repeats and regeneration for experimental sounds. The expression control adds an extra dimension of real-time tone shaping to this already versatile delay pedal.

Tap in the Perfect Delay Time

The Silos' tap tempo function lets you tap in the exact delay time you want with your foot. Just tap the tempo you want to lock in and the pedal will automatically adjust the delay time to match your tapping rate. Tap tempo gives you an easy way to sync up delay repeats to the rhythm or tempo of a song without turning knobs. It's a handy feature for nailing specific delay times on the fly.

Vintage-Inspired Styling

Inspired by vintage delay units from the '70s and '80s, the Silos features a sleek black enclosure with retro-futuristic graphics. Its analog styling matches its classic delay tones, giving you an old-school vibe in a modern, multi-dimensional pedal.
