Similarity
citedBlended 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.

Description

The Alexander Pedals Radical Delay is a compact three-mode digital delay inspired by 1980s clean digital aesthetics in the NEO Series. Three modes: MOD delivers crystal-clear delay with the Tweak knob adding chorus clockwise or vibrato counterclockwise to the repeats, GLITCH adds pitch artifacts and synth-video-game weirdness to the repeats for experimental and chiptune-adjacent sounds, and BEND pitch-shifts every successive repeat spiraling up or down by an octave depending on Tweak position. Features tap tempo integrated into the bypass footswitch, 4 onboard presets, and MIDI.

The Alexander Pedals Radical Delay DX is the six-mode expanded successor to the original Radical Delay in the NEO Series. Six modes: MOD (clean digital delay with Tweak for chorus or vibrato on repeats), BEND (pitch-shifting spiraling repeats), DYNA (dynamics-sensitive delay responding to pick attack intensity), REV (forward delay, reverse delay, and tape-stop effect via Tweak), ARP (chiptune arpeggiator delay with stacked pitch intervals for 8-bit sequences), and DUAL (parallel delay lines in mono, stereo, or ping-pong). Features 4 onboard presets, MIDI, expression pedal morphing between two states, and USB.
