JAM Pedals Delay Llama Mk.3
Jam Pedals · pedal
The JAM Pedals Delay Llama Mk. III is a hand-built analog bucket-brigade delay using faithful reproductions of the beloved Panasonic MN3205 BBD chips. It delivers a juicy, characterful analog echo inspired by vintage tape units, warm and organic yet a touch brighter than many analog delays so repeats stay present in a mix before decaying naturally. The Mk III keeps the original analog engine while adding a tap-tempo footswitch, a subdivision switch and a hold function for self-oscillating runaway textures. It suits everything from subtle slapback and ambient swells to wild oscillating soundscapes, and is widely praised as one of the best-sounding analog delays available.
