Suhr has taken a bold new step into the pedal world with the release of the Discovery Analog Delay. This innovative pedal captures the warmth of analog delay while providing modern features that offer unmatched creative control. As a premier Suhr dealer, we took an in-depth look at what makes the Discovery stand out.

Analog Heart, Digital Brain

At the core of the Discovery are four reissued MN3005 bucket brigade chips that produce the rich, musical tonality analog delays are prized for. This vintage-flavored signal path retains that classic analog magic. Yet Suhr went beyond pure analog circuitry by adding digital control features. There are 127 presets to save your favorite delay settings. You can recall sounds instantly via the onboard footswitches or MIDI. Full MIDI implementation allows integrating the Discovery into complex rigs. Every knob and parameter can be controlled through MIDI. You can even send patch change commands to other MIDI pedals.

Intuitive Hands-On Control

While the digital features expand possibilities, the Discovery still gives you intuitive real-time control. The three main knobs – Mix, Time, and Regen – make it easy to shape the core aspects of any delay. The Mix knob dials in the wet/dry balance. Roll it back for a hint of echo or crank it for trippy 100% wet effects. The Time knob sweeps delay time from a tight 40ms slapback to a cavernous 1100ms. For precision timing, use the tap tempo or delay division modes. Regen controls the number of repeats, taking you from a single echo to endless oscillating patterns.

Expression Pedal Control Opens Up Endless Possibilities

The Discovery allows even greater real-time control by connecting expression and footswitch pedals. Plug in an expression pedal and map it to any delay parameter, like Mix or Time. The pedal mapping can be saved per preset for dynamic effects.

Some cool sounds you can create:

• Ramp up delay time for classic tape echoes
• Slowly increase repeats for swelling ambience
• Fade in modulated textures
• Control delay level for rhythmic effects

Alternatively, hook up an external footswitch for remote control of Tap and Bypass functions while playing. With the Discovery, Suhr has achieved something truly special – an analog delay with vintage soul and forward-thinking versatility. This pedal covers all the bases. From classic echoes to warped pitch-shifting and ethereal reverbs, the Discovery provides unlimited inspiration. Experience this one-of-a-kind analog delay yourself at our shop today!
