The Damage Control TimeLine Multi-Dimensional Delay is the world's finest and most versatile delay product. 96KHz processing buffered by dual 12AX7's produces uncompromised signal quality of the processed sound, while the analog dry path ensures transparency. From vibrato, phasing, flanging and chorus, to slap-back, long echoes, multi-head and reverse, the TimeLine's continuous controls let you create your sound simply by turning knobs. The user presets, tap tempo, strum tempo, 2-track looping, and MIDI implementation make sure the TimeLine delivers in any performance or studio application.
Features
Eight continuously variable controls: Time, Feedback, Mix, Mod Speed, Mod Depth, Drive, Filter and S
Enough control to let you create any delay sound you can think of, from short and sweet to long and lush.
Two track 20 second Looper
Each track has individual level and pan controls. The Looper can be quantized for precise tempo sync using one of four selectable click samples with its own level and tone control.
Eight presets (virtually unlimited through MIDI)
Save your favorites with ease using the push switch on the encoder. MIDI allows for 1280 presets to be stored and recalled.
Analog Dry Path
The dry signal stays analog throughout, so your tone is unaffected by digital conversion. The 123dB SNR of the dry path creates a new standard in transparency.
96KHz processing
Fidelity is premium quality with 96kHz, 32-bit floating point processing. The 110 dB SNR of the processed signal is unmatched, resulting in pristine audio with fat musicality.
Tube-Buffered Wet Path
Dual 12AX7 tubes biased at 250V buffer the signal before and after the digital conversion, ensuring the highest degree of warmth and musicality for the delayed signal.
Analog Bypass
A buffered signal is provided that will work transparently with your amp input, effects loop, or mixing console.
Triggered Reverse Delay Mode
Anyone who has messed around with reverse delay knows the frustration of having to 'sync' your playing to match the delay. The TimeLineReverse Mode 'aligns' itself in time with your playing, producing aconsistent and musical result. You can actually use it in a live situation with repeatable results.
Tap tempo and strum tempo delay time
You have two choices to enter tap tempo information. You can step on the TAP button, or if you prefer, you can step and hold the TAP button while you strum or play staccato notes at the tempo you desire - perfect for calling out the tempo at the start of a song in live performance.
MIDI functionality for extended control
Every knob and switch is controllable with MIDI commands, and you can save and recall 1280 presets, if you need that many. TimeLine also works with standard MIDI clock messages to set delay times.
Comprehensive LED indicators
Not only do they look cool, but they are smart too, telling you the ON/BYPASS and Nuclear status of the Liquid Blues.
Power supply included
Batteries can't operate high-voltage devices like these, so we hook you up with the proper power source.
True stereo operation
The Left and Right Channels are processed independently throughout TimeLine.
