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 six-mode digital delay blending 1980s clean digital tone with modern modulation and glitch processing. Modes include MOD (modulated delay with chorus or vibrato on repeats), BEND (pitch-spiraling echoes), DUAL (dual-tap delay lines), REV (reverse delay), ARP (chiptune arpeggiator delay), and DYNA (dynamics-reactive delay). Maximum delay time ranges from 680ms to over 5000ms controlled by the CLOCK knob, which also shifts bandwidth from 16kHz down to 1kHz for lo-fi textures. Four onboard presets expand to 16 via MIDI. Neo Morph enables real-time seamless transitions between stored parameter positions.

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). Its DUAL mode includes a ping-pong delay. Features 4 onboard presets, MIDI, expression pedal morphing between two states, and USB.
