Dahlia Dual Analog Delay
The Dahlia packs two fully independent analog BBD delay circuits into a single compact enclosure with true stereo ins and outs, 6 saveable presets, and full MIDI control. Each delay offers up to 820ms of warm, organic analog delay with independent control over every parameter. Run them in stereo for lush spatial imaging, in parallel for layered textures, or in series for cascading repeats, all through an entirely analog signal path with modern digital control.
Key Features
– Two independent analog BBD delay circuits in one enclosure
– Up to 820ms of true analog delay per engine
– Three routing modes: Stereo (true L/R), Parallel (dual mono), and Series (cascading)
– 12 controls per delay including mix, time, feedback, tone, modulation, and gain staging
– Tap tempo with selectable divisions
– Time Lock system: sync delay times, set stereo width offsets, or create rhythmic division
– 6 onboard presets with color-coded LED (rare for a fully analog pedal)
– 3.5mm MIDI in/thru with integrated optocoupler (no converter box needed)
– Expression pedal input with per-parameter heel/toe mapping
– TRS stereo input and output for compact stereo rigs

Dual Delay Controls
Each delay has 12 parameters split between primary and secondary controls. The primary controls cover Mix, Time, Feedback, Tone, Tap Division, and Modulation Depth. Secondary controls add Mod Speed, Mod Shape (triangle/sine/random), input Gain staging, Ramp Speed, and independent Ramp To targets for both Time and Feedback. The Control switch lets you adjust Delay 1, Delay 2, or both simultaneously.
Time Lock System
The Time Lock feature is one of the Dahlia’s most powerful tools for stereo and rhythmic playing. In Independent mode, each delay runs on its own time setting. Width mode offsets Delay 2 from Delay 1 by a variable amount, which is perfect for creating subtle stereo separation without drastic timing differences. In Division mode, Delay 2 locks to a rhythmic subdivision of Delay 1, enabling polyrhythmic delay patterns.
Routing Modes
Stereo mode assigns Delay 1 to the left output and Delay 2 to the right for true stereo imaging. Parallel mode mixes both delays to both outputs in dual mono, giving you two layered delay textures from a single output. Series mode feeds Delay 1 into Delay 2, creating cascading repeats where the second engine adds its own character to the first engine’s repeats.
Expression & Presets
Map any combination of parameters to an expression pedal with independent heel and toe positions. A copy function simplifies setup by letting you duplicate one position to the other as a starting point. Expression mappings save to the first three presets, and all six presets store every parameter including tap tempo.
