Old Blood Noise Endeavors Bathing Liminal Delay - Orchid

Old Blood Noise Endeavors Bathing - a liminal delay - Orchid

Bathing is a liminal delay: perhaps a reverb, or a phaser, or a classic delay, but never exactly any one of these things. It’s a style of effect unique to the Old Blood lineup. You pick the overall delay time, the number of allpass filter stages it runs through to get there, and how you want to modulate the character of those stages. Turn knobs, fear not, and be sure to save that preset when you find it!

For integration into many different rigs, Bathing has:

• Stereo in and out with analog dry through

• Trails or true bypass switching

• Presets

• Expression control over every knob

• MIDI control over everything in the pedal, including MIDI clock in and out for external syncing

Controls 

• Time to set the central delay time, as well as choose between six subdivisions when holding the Tap footswitch

• Stages to set the number of stages the delay passes through, from two to twelve

• Feedback to set the overall feedback amount

• Filter to darken or brighten the character of the delay

• Rate, Depth, and Shape to determine the motion and character as the delay moves through its stages, with a variety of LFO shapes and two envelope options

• Dry to set the volume of the dry signal

• Wet to set the volume of the delay

• Dimension to add subtle stereo chorus/mono vibrato to the wet signal

• Tap/Aux switch to tap in tempo, hold for infinite feedback, or optionally use as a preset switcher

• Soft-touch Bypass footswitch with relay switching for minimal switch noise
