The Mirror Image delay pedal offers two variations each on three delay types - Digital, Analog and Tape.
The delay time, feedback and level controls are adjustable but you can also add in modulation if desired with adjustable depth and rate so there’s a tasty combination of delay and chorus. In addition to this you can add extra dotted-eighth delay to the main quarter note at approx 75 per cent of the main one’s volume for a multi-tap vibe and facilitating some rhythmic repeats.
The main digital delay will cover many delay requirements with its 20 to 900ms range while digital 2 offers much shorter delay times for a double tracking effect and also does a cool slapback.
The other settings cover simulations of BBD and tape delays, (albeit with no self-oscillation), focusing on the less-than-pristine repeats of each genre - the second variation of each offering a more lo-fi version.
