The Eventide DDL-500 features 10 seconds of mono delay at a 192 kHz sample rate, and boasts a design that limits the amount of digital circuitry to a minimum. Soft saturation clipping, low pass filter, feedback, insert loop, relay bypass, and +20 dB boost are all analogue, providing you with the best of both worlds.
Delay time can be varied manually or by connecting an LFO to the remote input, allowing short delays to be used for comb filter and flanging effects. The DDL-500 is also capable of extremely long delays (up to 160 seconds at a 16 kHz sample rate) allowing long passages to be captured for looping.
From short delays for doubling effects, to long delays, to creating swept delay and tape echo class effects, the DDL-500 brings it all in a single 500 series slot.
