Vick Audio announces Hypocenter Delay guitar effects pedal

Top US stompbox builder Mike Vickery has announced the latest addition to the Vick Audio catalogue: the Hypocenter Delay delay pedal.

Built around the ever-popular PT2399, a digital chip that emulates analogue delays, the Hypocenter offers delay times from 23ms up to 450ms, with low noise and the potential for infinite repeats.

Four controls - volume, delay, mix and repeats - adjust the sounds, while standard 3PDT true bypass and 9V power supply operation are also onboard.

The Hypocenter Delay is available now for $139 from Vick Audio.

Mike has been Editor-in-Chief of GuitarWorld.com since 2019, and an offset fiend and recovering pedal addict for far longer. He has a master's degree in journalism from Cardiff University, and 15 years' experience writing and editing for guitar publications including MusicRadar, Total Guitar and Guitarist, as well as 20 years of recording and live experience in original and function bands. During his career, he has interviewed the likes of John Frusciante, Chris Cornell, Tom Morello, Matt Bellamy, Kirk Hammett, Jerry Cantrell, Joe Satriani, Tom DeLonge, Radiohead's Ed O'Brien, Polyphia, Tosin Abasi, Yvette Young and many more. His writing also appears in the The Cambridge Companion to the Electric Guitar. In his free time, you'll find him making progressive instrumental rock as Maebe.
