AMT SY-1 Stutterfly - HQ Digital Delay

Stut, stut, stut, stut, .... STUTTERFLY!

AMT Electronics SY-1 has all the features of a delay pedal that modern guitarists are looking for, all in a small compact enclosure that will fit easily on any pedalboard.

Most delays include the standard time, feedback, and level controls. AMT recognized the need for a few extra options that would greatly improve the versitility and flexibility of the pedal. The Stutterfly delay also includes an added TONE control, MIX feature, and MOD adjustment; usually only found on more expensive/larger sized units.

Sounds great with both clean AND overdriven distorted guitar signals.

Tech talk

The unit is based upon the high-quality DSP providing wide dynamic range of the device. The original circuitry design developed by АМТ experts resulted in insignificant current consumption (less than 36mА). The refusal from operational amplifiers traditionally used in similar devices in favor of JFET has dramatically enhanced the pedal's sound.

The device features passive bypass which on one hand requires high-quality cables but on the other hand retains the original instrument sound when the effect is off.

CONTROLS:

• LEVEL controls the overall level output of the pedal.
• TIME controls the length of the time in between delay repeats. Maximum delay time is 1 second.
• FB FEEDBACK adjusts the number of repeats that are played back.
• MIX control allows the user to blend the orginal dry signal with the reverb wet signal. A must have feature for getting that perfect mix.
• TONE knob allows the user to adjust the overall tone of the delayed signal. This does NOT affect the overall output signal, only the repeats. Achieve and replicate any style of delay from warm analog, creamy tape, to brighter tighter delays as well.
• MOD is a feature allowing the addition of modulation into the delayed repeats. This feature can also be bypassed by rotating it entirely left. Add a hint of tape modulation, wobble, or chorus type effect to the delay.
