Went ahead and took the new BL-52 Phase Repeater out for a stroll along Scissortail Park. We phased, we delayed, we repeated, we maybe even shifted a little.
Further pushing the boundary of clock-defined pedals, the latest entry in Old Blood Noise Endeavors’ BL series is a phase repeater, a genre entirely their own. Phase repetition takes the modulation of a phaser and applies it to the realm of time, creating a sound entirely its own and more like delay or reverb than its namesake phaser. First used in their Dweller pedal, BL-52 represents a new spin on the sound, with simple controls including a Clock slider that informs the timing of everything in the pedal.
BL-52 Features:
Clock slider to change the delay time, LFO speed and overall fidelity of the effect, from faster repeats to time-stretched lo-fi
Feedback knob to enhance the intensity of the phase repetition by further lengthening the trails
Soft touch footswitch to engage or bypass the effect
Mix control to set dry/wet mix
Volume control to set overall volume
9V DC power
BL-52 is available for $179 USD directly from OBNE at www.oldbloodnoise.com and at participating dealers worldwide.
