EarthQuaker Silos Multi-generational Time Reflection Delay Pedal

EarthQuaker Silos Multi-generational Time Reflection Delay Pedal

From pristine digital delay and analog-style warmth to the artifact-ridden repeats of tape echo, the EarthQuaker Devices Silos multi-generational time reflection pedal packs three dynamic delay algorithms into a straightforward stompbox format. This ultra-versatile delay pedal’s trio of tones provides a veritable history lesson in the art of echo, with each algorithm boasting up to a second’s worth of delay time. Time, Repeats, and Mix controls make it a breeze to fine-tune your dream delay tone, while the Silos’ powerful Preset switch offers instant recall of up to six distinct patches. Moreover, Silos grants superior in-the-moment control via a dedicated tap tempo footswitch and a user-configurable expression control to effortlessly swap between hard-edged slapback to spacious soundscapes while you’re onstage. Merging all the versatility of a massive multi-patch delay workstation with the intuitive workflow of a 4-knob pedal, the Silos stompbox solidifies EarthQuaker Devices’ legacy of bringing boutique-level stompbox brilliance to the masses.

Dive into three silos of sound

The team at EQD tells us that the Silos was born of founder Jamie Stillman’s admiration of his three favorite echo boxes — and his desire to have them all on his pedalboard without taking up too much space! Thus, the Silos features three spot-on delay algorithms to swap between.

• Digital: Clean and crisp is the name of the game here, with the Silos’ digital mode retaining crystal-clear fidelity on your repeats with a slight top-end roll off.

• Analog: Slightly more midrange-forward in the attack than the other modes, Analog mode features a dark degradation to repeats that’s ideal for crafting moody textures and soundscapes.

• Tape: Finally, the Silos’ Tape mode captures the warm, vibey voice of old-school tape delay. Switch to this setting for textured artifacts, a darker tonality, and just a touch of pleasing distortion.

Extensive preset and expression controls

Considering the Silos' trio of sounds takes you from a pristine digital delay to moody tape echoes to old-school analog, it’s all but guaranteed you’ll find more than a few favorite tones you want to save for later. When you do, the Silos sports a robust preset section that allows you to save up to six patches for instant recall. Moreover, the Silos boasts an expression control input for plenty of in-the-moment experimentation onstage. You can assign your expression pedal to any of the Silos’ three parameters, and your chosen parameter even carries over into your respective preset slot. Finally, Silos features a dedicated tap tempo footswitch to dial in the perfect delay time — no knob-twiddling required.
