The Real DeltaLab Sound! 

For sale is a DeltaLab ADM 310 Digital Delay Line. Why am I selling this? Well- I own 6 DeltaLab delays which is a bit excessive and I'd be happy to pass this along to someone who would use it a bit more than myself right now. It's safe to say that I love the sound of these things- I only have one tattoo... a DeltaLab Effectron II on my left forearm. The ADM 310 Digital Delay Line is a great way to get that classic 80's DeltaLab sound on a budget!

So what's the deal with the ADM 310 Digital Delay Line? First and foremost, it features the Delta Modulation AD/DA convertors that give DeltaLab its name. Alternative to the standard Pulse Code Modulation (PCM), Delta Modulation measures the change or "Delta" between samples for conversion. In modern times, our higher fidelity bit-depth makes the distinction between conversion algorithms not really noticeable, but when broken down to an approx 12-bit format, the differences between conversion styles delights the ear. The Slew created by overdriving the narrow dynamic range of these convertors is can be compared to "tape-like" saturation. It's weird and vintage sounding, somewhere between the world of analog and digital.

How can you use ADM 310 Digital Delay Line? There are two line amplifiers on both the input and output stages that allow you to dial in the right saturation and output level in your signal flow. The buttons on the front panel allow you to set a delay time anywhere from 10MS to 310MS (hence the ADM310 name) in 10ms increments. I enjoy using this unit being fed signal on an aux send from my mixer and then returning the signal on a channel. That way, I can resend the return back to the delay line and create multiple repeating echoes. It's also fun to build a complex delay line from scratch by adding in modulation or other effects before returning the signal to a channel on the mixer. A fun "recipe" is adding in a phaser after the delay to create a delay that gets more "phasey" with each repeat. And finally, another hot tip is to use the viby AD/DA to create unique and interesting overdrive/distortion sounds. I really enjoy this on guitar and keys DI as well as vocals. 

Any questions? Let me know! Shipping cost accounts for professional packing and shipping + insurance :)
