Vick Audio announces Hypocenter Delay guitar effects pedal
US builder harnesses PT2399 for analogue-voiced repeats
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.
