I kid you not, I reckon the Halo is so good it will knock more than a few tried and true 'benchmark' delays off pedalboards the world over in pretty short shrift. That Andy Timmons has given this masterpiece the thumbs up already says a lot but if it makes any difference, I'll go so far as to say this is the best delay release from any manufacturer for a long, long time and I'll bet you'll be wanting one! Start with Andy's signature tone - modulated dual delays at ¼ and dotted ⅛ respectively. That's all he really wanted but he got more because engineers are ...engineers. So we get eight presets. It's stereo in and out. True or trails bypass. There are high pass filters and saturation controls (I'll show Saturation in my next HALO vid) as well as BBD, Tape Machine and HALO delay types. Tap tempo is there. Infinite Hold (which I call 'freeze' in the video. Remote switching and expression pedal control are available if you want to use them. And the sound is AMAZinG! I mean better than I've heard from any delay for ages. Get one. You won't be sorry.

This is not my last HALO video. There will be more...
