Follows description from Equipboard:

The Ibanez DL10 Delay is a vintage digital delay pedal from the 1980s Ibanez 10 "Power Series" known for its warm, analog-like tone and simple, intuitive controls. 

Key Features & Specifications

  • Circuitry: Although it uses digital circuitry, the pedal is celebrated for its warm, rich, and organic sound, often compared to classic analog or tape echoes. It uses a Mitsubishi M50195P chip in its circuitry.
  • Delay Time: The delay time ranges from approximately 30ms to 400ms (some sources indicate up to 600ms or 70-400ms) which allows for effects from subtle slap-back to longer atmospheric repeats.
  • Controls: The pedal features three primary control knobs, making it straightforward to use:
    • D-Time (Delay Time): Controls the interval between echoes.
    • Repeat: Adjusts the length of time the echo continues (feedback).
    • D-Level (Delay Level): Manages the intensity or volume of the delayed signal mixed with the dry signal.
  • Self-Oscillation: A trim pot located inside the battery compartment allows for the adjustment of the repeat setting, which can enable the pedal to enter self-oscillation for experimental sounds.
  • Construction: It is housed in a durable metal chassis, built to withstand live performances and studio use.
  • Power: It operates on a 9V DC negative center power supply, drawing about 55mA, or a 9V battery.
  • Jacks: It features top-mounted input, output, and power jacks.

Sound Profile

  • Reviewers and users praise the Ibanez DL10 Delay for its "crisp, fat, thick and warm sounding" character. The repeats have a distinct tone, which some describe as a "low-fi digital sound at higher settings". It is known for adding depth and dimension to guitar playing and for sitting well within a mix. The pedal offers a versatile, nostalgic '90s sound that enhances a wide range of musical styles.
