modulation . In Glitch mode , there is no effect with the Tweak knob fully counterclockwise , and as you turn it up , strange artifacts and warbles start to enter the signal . With Tweak set fully clockwise , the delayed signal is nearly unrecognizable , and it sounds like robots have taken over your tone . In Bend mode , your delayed signal shifts down in pitch when Tweak is set counterclockwise , and up in pitch when clockwise .
Mod mode is as close as you ’ ll get to conventional delay sounds , and the sounds are very good , but you don ’ t buy this pedal for standard delay sounds ; you buy this to get weird . Glitch mode sounds awesome for bitcrushertype sounds , and you can get those without the delay when you turn the time all the way down . My favorite mode , hands down , is Bend . In this mode I was able to dial in creepy , ascending lines that sounded like they belonged in a modernday Nosferatu soundtrack .
Turning the Time down all the way gives you access to a whole different set of sounds for each mode . In Mod mode , you can get a nice chorus sound , and Glitch and Bend modes can get super weird . This pedal is weird in the best way . In fact , you could even call it radical .
The Radical Delay II Plus is a unique delay pedal that promises to reward the creative guitarist . The warps , wiggles , pitches , and glitches contained within will take your playing to a previously undiscovered dimension . If you only use delay for slapback and thickening classic rock solos , the RD II Plus probably isn ’ t for you . But if you love to push yourself to your creative limits and are seeking inspiration , you ’ ll be hardpressed to find a more oddly beautiful musical tool . With the Radical Delay II Plus , the only limit is your imagination . Now get out there and make some crazy noises , you space cadet !
Weird , wacky , and awesome delay sounds . Lots of creative inspiration . Superb build quality .
Some of the sounds may not satisfy the delay purist .
