Pedals that stack with the Carl Martin DeLayla XL

Klon Centaur

The Klon's clear midrange boost feeds the DeLayla's natural tape echo a driven signal instead of a clean one, not really stacking gain with it.

Dr. Scientist Frazz Dazzler

The Frazz Dazzler's warm, gated low-gain fuzz gives the DeLayla's natural, slapback tape echo something dense to trail off, not real gain to stack.

EarthQuaker Devices Grand Orbiter V3

Run the Grand Orbiter's resonant, swelling phase sweep after the DeLayla's natural, slapback tape echo and the modulation colors the repeats directly.

Electro-Harmonix Bad

Put the Bad's phaser before the DeLayla so each phased sweep gets echoed distinctly instead of the delay blurring it into one smeared wash.

Walrus Audio Julianna Deluxe Chorus/Vibrato

Run the Julianna's stereo chorus into the DeLayla's tape echoes and the modulation carries into the repeats instead of getting flattened to mono.
