Hypocenter Delay
Vick Audio's Hypocenter Delay is a digital delay pedal that transports your guitar tone back in time, evoking the lush, organic textures of vintage analog delay units. At its heart lies the PT2399 chip, a modern take on the classic bucket brigade design that has become a go-to for players seeking that elusive "tape-like" delay character. What sets the Hypocenter apart is its versatility - it's equally at home with crystal-clear clean tones as it is with gritty, distorted soundscapes. Dial in delay times from a snappy 25ms up to a cavernous 450ms, and tweak the feedback from a single repeat to an infinite, atmospheric wash. The low-noise, low-distortion circuitry ensures your delays remain pristine, never muddying your original signal. This pedal has become a secret weapon for discerning guitarists, including Pink Floyd's David Gilmour, who has used it to craft his iconic, spacious lead tones. Pair it with an overdrive or modulation pedal, and you can unlock a world of shimmering, atmospheric textures that'll transport your playing to new sonic dimensions. Whether you're chasing vintage echo, ambient pads, or anything in between, the Hypocenter Delay is a must-have for any pedal enthusiast's board.
