All in all, it was about two years in the making to get it juuuuuust right. While I did display the pedal at NAMM about a year too early, I just wasn’t 100 percent happy with it at that time. So, we tweaked, and tweaked, and tweaked some more in order to get it perfect before releasing it. I’m super proud of it, I hope you love it as much as I do! However, I wanted the “sweet spots” of these pedals—those settings that not only allow you to get lost in a sea of ambient delay and reverb voluptuousness, yet still have that —Brian Wampler one setting that gets you back to hamburgers and hot dogs; meaning, the good ol’ tried-and-true delay and plate- style reverb tones.
