ABOUT
The HARP V2 DELAY is designed for harp players who prefer more presence in their tone.
As with the Harp Delay the dry portion of the signal is left unchanged; but, the Harp V2 Delay
differs in that there is less filtering in the echo, producing a tone with more presence.
Like the Harp Delay it is not a tone sucking modded guitar
delay but a tone enhancing harp delay. The dry portion of the signal passes through high
value coupling capacitors assuring maximum bass response and with a buffered FET
input your high impedance crystal and CM elements will sound fatter than ever and the
effect will make you sound almost as if two harps are playing giving you a much bigger
sound stage. This delay offers a tonal response similar to the Dan Echo and Boss; BUT, with a
bottom end that brings out the fat tone that we love.
The Harp V2 Delay has a broad range of effect; from the fat studio sound to slap-back to
multiple repeats that fade away and the Harp V2 Delay does all of this without increasing risk
of feedback and without weakening your tone not to mention that it is great for voice too.
The Harp V2 Delay is guaranteed to please even the most die-hard analog delay fan.
If you are having a difficult time choosing between the Harp V2 Delay and the Harp Delay
then I recommend the Harp Delay which has a customer aproval rating of about 99%. The
V2 Delay was created for the small percentage of my customers who did not want to loose
presence (treble) in the echo. The V2 Delay is great not only for for blues;
but for jazz, pop and any other genre of music.
The circuit is centered around a chip that has a low noise rating, < -90dbv, low distortion,
< 0.5%thd, 44k digital processing and is capable of up to 300ms delay. The input is FET
buffered for high impedance to provide proper loading for your favorite crystal or cm mic.
The delay has a true bypass. The gain has been reduced to prevent solid state distortion
and is balanced to have an overall gain of 1x so that the level is the same when bypassed.
The warmth comes from the superior dry signal bass response and termination, distortion
free performance and the filtering which reduces the highs more on every repeat providing
the effect of a distancing echo.
SETTINGS
Settings are very basic; for a reverb type effect set the Delay at 10:00 Repeats at 3:00 Blend from 10:00 to 4:00. To acheive a slap-back set the Delay from 9:00 to 5:00 and
Repeats at 7:00 Blend from 10:00 to 4:00. To achieve a echo effect set the Delay from 8:00 to 5:00, Repeats from 9:00 to 5:00 and Blend from 10:00 to 4:00. This will get you
started but ultimately whatever setting you like is the right setting.
POWER
The pedal operates with a 9 volt battery or a 9vdc power adapter and it has reverse polarity protection.
The battery is switched off when an external power supply is used and the LED is on when the
delay is in and is off when the delay is in bypass. The mic input jacks acts as the on-off switch.
Because delay pedals are hard on batteries with an estimated 10 to 12 hours of playing time it
is recommended to purchase the ac adapter sold here to work with the Harp Delay.
