Mate vintage sound with modern processing power with the DM-101 Delay Machine from BOSS, a sophisticated delay pedal that uses modern CPU technology to achieve ultimate precision, control, and a huge range of delay sounds without sacrificing a 100% analog signal path. Using eight analog BBD chips, the DM-101 delivers 12 unique delay modes including several with stereo signal processing for everything from classic warmth and saturation to modern clarity and crispness.
You get plenty of onboard control, including adjustable modulation rate, depth, and a unique Variation knob that allows you to control multiple parameters unique for each mode, and you can store your custom creations in up to 127 user memory locations. Tap tempo and tap division functions let you create wild rhythmic patterns, and you get further control of your sounds with the expandable external control via the 1/4" footswitch and expression pedal input or the 3.5mm TRS MIDI I/O. This pedal includes an AC adapter and four rubber feet to get your started.
Twisting the Variation knob cycles through parameters unique to the different modes. And you can always drive delays into saturated self-oscillation by cranking the Intensity knob.
You can store and recall favorite setups with four onboard memories and connect up to two footswitches or an expression pedal for extended real-time control. MIDI I/O takes things further, providing remote access to 127 user memories, MIDI sync, and more. The audio outputs are set for blended operation by default, but they can be easily reconfigured for wet/dry rigs and wet-only parallel setups.
- Classic: Traditional warm analog delay sound extended with up to 1200 ms of delay time. Adjust the modulation behavior by cycling through triangle, sine, and more complex waveform shapes with the Variation knob.
- Vintage: Retro analog delay sound inspired by the iconic BOSS DM-2 delay pedal introduced in 1981. Adjust the modulation behavior by cycling through triangle, sine, and more complex waveform shapes with the Variation knob.
- Modern: Uniquely clear analog delay sound with a distinctive high-end tone and up to 840 ms of delay time. Adjust the modulation behavior by cycling through triangle, sine, and more complex waveform shapes with the Variation knob.
- Multihead: Emulates a multihead tape delay while imparting a uniquely analog BBD sound character. Use the Variation knob to cycle through 10 different head combinations.
- Nonlinear: A unique effect that produces consecutive short delays (35 to 190 ms) that gradually increase in volume. The Variation knob allows you to control the delay times after the initial delay.
- Ambience: Simulates a small space. Change the size and early reflections with the Variation knob.
- Reflect: A stereo delay sound that produces a reverb-style effect. Adjust the predelay with the Variation knob.
- Doubling + Delay: A stereo effect that combines a doubled sound with a longer delay. Use the Variation knob to balance the two sounds across the stereo output.
- Wide: A stereo delay with offset left / right delay times for an expansive sound. Use the Variation knob to adjust the delay offset amount.
- Dual Mod: A stereo delay with different modulation phase settings on the left and right outputs. Use the Variation knob to adjust the phase amount (the phase is fully inverted at the maximum setting).
- Pan: A tapped stereo delay with different delay times distributed across the sound field. Use the Variation knob to fine-tune the delay time amounts.
- Pattern: Stereo delay with different rhythmic patterns. Use the Variation knob to choose from the 10 available pattern types.
