Catalinbread Adineko

Catalinbread · pedal

The Catalinbread Adineko is an analog emulation of vintage oil-can delay units, faithfully modeling the organic echo, reverb, and vibrato tones of oil-can delay machines. Features a Viscosity knob that adds foggy vibrato to the repeats, a Reverb control for adding depth behind the echoes, a multi-tap delay spread for layered echo textures, and a Blend control for wet/dry mixing. The combination of delay, reverb, and vibrato in a single pedal replicates the holistic sonic character of vintage oil-can echo units. Built in Portland, Oregon.

What stands out

  • “In the signal chain it benefits from placement after drive pedals and before further reverb if additional depth is wanted”

    — from the community notes

  • “Its standout strength is the three-dimensional echo character combining delay repeats, reverb wash, and Viscosity vibrato in an integrated unit”

    — from the community notes

  • “Multi-tap delay spread delivers layered echo complexity beyond standard single-repeat delay”

    — from the reviews
