IBANEZ AnalogDigital Delay Pedal [Echo Shifter] ES3

Product Description

ES3 -Echo Shifter- has evolved into a delay pedal that will further boost your imagination.

- Analog mode/digital mode switch

While retaining the ease of use of the previous model ES2, the successor model ES3 now features a new digital delay mode.

You can easily select between analog mode and digital mode with a single switch.

In analog mode, a delay sound is generated using a BBD (Bucket Brigade Device) element, and the delay time can be set from 40ms to a maximum of 600ms.

Like the ES2, it has a natural and warm sound with little thinning and good sound penetration.

In digital mode, the delay time can be set from 40ms to a maximum of 1,500ms, making it possible to create long delay effects like a hidden weapon.

- INSTRUMENT/LINE LEVEL switch to select the input instrument or pedal

INSTRUMENT: Suitable for input levels from a typical electric guitar. Select this if you are using the ES3 as a guitar effect pedal.

LINE: Suitable for inputting high-output signals, such as when connecting the ES3 after a booster, connecting it to an amplifier's effect loop (send/return), or using it as a keyboard effect pedal.

- Classical and stable housing design

To adjust the delay time, a fader is used that combines a classic look with ease of use, just like the ES2. The exterior also has a classic design with a wooden frame placed next to the mint-colored housing. It is large and stable, and has a maniacal design that evokes tabletop use.

- Equipped with a tap function that allows you to set the optimal tempo while playing

- MODULATION ON/OFF switch

By setting the delay time to a short value, you can reproduce the same effect as a chorus.

- OSCILLATION switch that generates intense oscillation

Press and hold the TAP/OSC switch to turn on OSCILLATION, which generates intense oscillation. When ON, you can adjust the FEEDBACK, slide the delay time, and switch the MODULATION switch to create even more chaotic sounds.

*Please note that if you suddenly lengthen the delay time when OSCILLATION (ON) is on, it may damage the amplifier speakers.

It has been seven years since the predecessor model ES2: Echo Shifter, which features a unique design with a large slider in the center of the case despite being a pedal effect, and a wide range of delay effects that can be obtained depending on the player's imagination, from ordinary to super-unique.

The ES3 is a new "playable" Echo Shifter that further pursues functionality and sound.

*It is not battery-powered. Please purchase a 9V/center negative AC adapter separately. *Current consumption: 200mA
