JHS 3 Series Glitch Delay Effectpedal

The new Glitch Delay from JHS Pedals' 3 Series is no ordinary delay - it's a creative tool for anyone wanting to experiment with time, repetition, and sonic movement. Developed with a clear vision: controlled chaos in the delay signal. Inspired by classics like the Line 6 DL-4 and the atmospheric, shimmering delay textures of Bill Frisell, this pedal combines musical warmth with unpredictable dynamics.

At its core is a fixed delay time that remains constant, while random glitch events intervene in the signal in real time. These alter the playback speed of individual repetitions, bending, stretching, and distorting the delays - directly in the feedback path. The result is an organic-sounding delay that is constantly in motion without ever losing its timing.

The Glitch control is particularly exciting: Turning the knob all the way back produces a classic, warm delay that blends seamlessly into any setup. The further you turn it up, the more frequently glitch events occur - up to a 50% probability at the maximum setting. Each of these sonic changes is visualized by a flashing LED that pulses in time with the glitches.

The Time control covers a wide range from 20 milliseconds to 980 milliseconds. This makes both short slapback delays and expansive ambient textures easily achievable. The Repeats control adds a pleasant modulation as its intensity increases, while an integrated limiter ensures that even at maximum feedback, no uncontrolled bursts occur. New notes are smoothly layered over existing repeats, creating dense, slowly dissolving soundscapes.

The Mix switch allows you to quickly adjust the delay level - either subtly in the background at 35% or significantly more prominently at 80%. Despite its creative depth, the Glitch Delay remains remarkably intuitive: there's virtually no setting that doesn't work musically.

The JHS 3 Series Glitch Delay is therefore the perfect choice for musicians who love classic delay sounds but also want to explore new, vibrant sonic landscapes.
