Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.46% — somewhat different

The Alexander Pedals History Lesson Vol. 2 is a three-mode stereo delay covering the classic delay spectrum through era-specific voicings: 1963 mode delivers warm magnetic tape echo with progressive treble and bass rolloff per repeat, 1977 mode delivers analog bucket-brigade character with murky slightly colored repeats, and 1984 mode delivers bright 24-bit clean digital clarity suited to lead lines and modern tones. Features tap tempo with three subdivisions, a Tone control for echo tails, stereo outputs with an analog dry path on the second output, and a modulation knob adding chorus or vibrato to any mode. No MIDI or presets.
