Delay effects are a must for satisfying the individualistic creativity of any guitarist. Their long history encompasses both the analog and digital eras. Many classic delay units have played a prominent role through the years, contributing to numerous memorable phrases, generating dreamlike spaces, and producing psychedelic performances, both on stage and in the studio. These sought-after units – as well as new delays destined to become standards for the coming generation – are all included in the VOX DelayLab. In addition to 30 diverse delay effects, the DelayLab offers a stereo looper that can capture up to 28 seconds, 30 stage-ready programs, and a wealth of extras, all packed into a sturdy diecast body. With an expressly vintage vibe, the easy-to-use front panel offers satisfying hands-on control over a diverse array of sounds and features. In short, the DelayLab delivers virtually infinite potential, befitting its status as the new standard for effect processors.

From vintage to mainstays and beyond
Over the years, numerous delay effects have come along; tape echoes, analog delays, digital delays, etc. Each has varied by type, manufacturer, and internal structure. From the distinctive distortion and warmth of tape, the unique tonal change produced by an analog BBD (Bucket Brigade Device) circuit, to the lo-fi sound typical of low-resolution digital circuitry, the DelayLab delivers perfect models for a carefully selected set of historically significant delay units that have fascinated guitarists through the years. There are also numerous special types of effects such as pitch change, panning, and reverse. Parameters not found on the original models are also provided, offering unique expressive possibilities that go beyond simply modeling the classic units of the past.

Delay innovations
The DelayLab also contains numerous practical and original delay effects that will inspire any guitarist. Dual Delay makes effective use of two delays; Distortion Delay adds distortion to only the delayed sound; Reverse Delay can adjust the mix ratio between forward and reverse sound; Space Delay applies a string-like tonal effect to deepen the sound. An incredible array of possibilities are available, as any of these effects are capable of creating aggressive and radical sounds, as well as being used to add a subtle sense of depth.

Integrated Stereo Looper
The DelayLab provides extensive looper capabilities that can be combined with the delay effects to surpass the abilities of the numerous dedicated units that have been in the spotlight of guitar performance in recent years. The DelayLab goes well beyond simply layering sounds by providing features that open up new creative possibilities – such as reverse playback, triggered playback, and using an expression pedal to control various parameters. There are also three types of delay that can be used simultaneously with the looper. Plus, the DelayLab is able to create performances overflowing with originality by adjusting the L/R delay times independently, or by attenuating the volume of the looped phrases each time you overdub so that the latest overdub will stand out.

Thirty stage-ready preset programs
The thirty preset programs take full advantage of the DelayLab's extensive features and parameters. Editable and re-writable, these programs range from simple and versatile types, to complex and distinctive effects. There are also programs that reproduce the delay sound of famous guitarists as heard on classic recordings.

DelayLab - What the Pros are talking about...

MACABEES - FELIX WHITE
“The DelayLab has been a really interesting new toy to use in making our new record. I've been using it to twist some of the sounds I've been using for years and it has been a very valuable find!”

MYSTERY JETS - WILLIAM REES
"The Delaylab is a brilliant addition to any studio's arsenal or guitarists pedal board, it has a huge range of delays and ambiences and throws out an endless spectrum of sonic possibilities.....enjoy!"

PEACE - HARRISON KOISSER
“It's been SO useful live. In the Studio I use a lot of Space Echo & Analogue tape delays on guitar. As well as using many different digital & Analogue delays. Basically the Delaylab has let me have all of these sounds saved as presets & sound as good live as the old boxes did in the studio.”

TURBOWOLF - ANDY GHOSH
"The Delaylab rules so much! I've been using it solidly since I got it, definitely going to be all over our new record. As well as all the usual delay things it's got tons of super authentic vintage settings, which I'm all about. Tube echos, tape delays, spacey stuff, distorted stuff, it’s like having Pink Floyd in a box. And you can really twist it up and make it sound like everything's broken and the world's gone insane. In the best way possible. Oh and it's a lovely colour."
