Walrus Audio · pedal
The Walrus Audio Mako Series D1 is a high-fidelity stereo delay built as a do-it-all pedalboard workstation, with five delay programs, Digital, Mod, Vintage, Dual, and Reverse, each offering three instantly accessible adjustable parameters on the surface. It features a dedicated tap tempo footswitch, recallable presets, and stereo operation, with the MkII version adding glitchy and expanded textures. Controls keep all parameters within reach for quick, intuitive editing, covering everything from pristine digital repeats and warm vintage delays to modulated, dual, and reverse soundscapes. With high audio quality and deep flexibility, it suits players wanting a versatile, gig-ready delay that spans clean rhythmic repeats, ambient washes, and experimental textures, all with presets and tap tempo, in a compact, professionally voiced stereo pedal.
