At some point in our lives, all of us have wished we could have access to a time machine. Whether you’re looking to right old wrongs, dreaming of being a fly on the wall at some significant historical event, or wishing to hop a few decades forward just to see how out current messes are gonna pan out, it would be pretty sweet indeed to just jump into a flux capacitor-equipped DeLorean (or something similar) and set the controls for the date of your choice. Alas, even though scientists say time travel is theoretically possible, such options don’t yet appear to be available to us, at least not corporeally. But if you’d like to try time traveling from a sonic perspective, hitch a ride on Silos, EarthQuaker’s new tri-mode delay pedal — or, rather, Multi-Generational Time Reflection Device. Yes, that’s “multi-generational” in the sense that this ingenious little stompbox contains three separate operational modes (Digital, Analog and Tape) that can generate a wide array of delicious delay tones — as well as delay times ranging from zero milliseconds to a whole second — with just a tweak of its Mix, Time and Repeats controls. Which is pretty damn cool in and of itself, as are additional features like the Save/Recall button that allows you to save up to six presets, a Preset knob that accesses them, a user-assignable expression control jack, a dedicated Tap Tempo footswitch, and a buffered bypass Activate footswitch which lets the delay trails naturally decay even when you abruptly kick it off.
