Boss SDE-3000EVH Dual Digital Delay Pedal

A faithful re-creation of the stereo delays at the heart of Eddie Van Halen’s massive 3-cabinet guitar rig, the BOSS SDE-3000EVH Dual Digital Delay packs a refrigerator-sized rack of processing into a convenient, floor-based stompbox, complete with eye-grabbing EVH aesthetics. Based on the venerable Roland SDE-3000 rackmount digital delay, the SDE-3000EVH pedal brandishes two discrete delay lines, enabling it to mimic the functionality of two vintage rackmount SDE-3000s, with enough routing flexibility to build an EVH-worthy wet/dry/wet rig. Not only does the SDE-3000EVH replicate the classic, surprisingly warm sound of its predecessor, but its retro display and panel controls are also based on the original unit. You get adjustable delay times up to 3,000ms, along with modulation inspired by the original unit, phase switches, and low- and high-cut filters. You also get an assignable onboard footswitch, external footswitch jacks for extended operation, and MIDI I/O on space-saving mini TRS jacks. Best of all, the SDE-3000EVH includes eight presets with the exact settings from EVH’s former live rig. If you’ve ever wanted to add Edward Van Halen’s expansive spatial delay tone to your own setup, the BOSS SDE-3000EVH makes it easy.
