Boss SDE-3000D Dual Digital Delay

The Boss SDE-3000D Dual Digital Delay is a remarkable floor-based pedal that brings you not one, but two authentic reproductions of the beloved SDE-3000 delay unit. With fully independent delays, flexible internal routing, and expanded input/output options, this pedal offers modern versatility for mono and stereo setups of all kinds.

Experience enhanced modulation and tone-shaping capabilities, and take advantage of the convenient 100 memory slots to store your favourite settings. Seamlessly integrate the vintage voice of the SDE-3000D with any stage or studio setup using the abundant onboard and external control options, including extensive MIDI support.

The SDE-3000D faithfully captures the beautiful warm sound and inviting musicality of its predecessor. Its clever internal digital processing combined with nonlinear behaviours from the supporting analogue circuitry creates a distinct and captivating effect.

The pedal meticulously replicates adjustable delay phase, unique modulation response, and other crucial elements, ensuring the complete character of this time-honoured classic is brought to life for the modern era.

While the original SDE-3000 was monophonic, the SDE-3000D elevates your experience with two discrete delays that can operate in series or parallel. Each delay has independent settings and offers mono or stereo modulation.

The pedal provides access to nearly every parameter from the original unit through a retro interface derived from the vintage hardware. With additional features like 100 user memories, flexible input/output options, MIDI compatibility, and an array of onboard and external control choices, the SDE-3000D surpasses its rackmount inspiration, offering unparalleled versatility.

Key Features:

• Nostalgic Digital Design - Renowned by musicians and engineers alike, certain classic effects possess a transformative quality that elevates any sound they touch. The SDE-3000 is one such effect, embodying that magical touch. Its exceptional attributes have made it a go-to choice for enhancing live instruments. With its ultra-wide dynamic range, adjustable delay phase, rich modulation, and the ability to produce multiple seconds of clear, yet warm delay tones, the SDE-3000 has become an integral part of music from the 1980s and 1990s.
• Optimised Sound Reproduction - Unleash the complete power of the SDE-3000D with its extensive range of parameters, covering almost every aspect of the original SDE-3000. Seamlessly navigate through these parameters using the retro interface, meticulously crafted to faithfully replicate the vintage hardware, delivering an authentic and immersive experience.
• Authentic Details, Modern Performance - Unlock the full potential of the SDE-3000D with its comprehensive parameter selection, encompassing nearly every aspect of the original SDE-3000. Access these parameters effortlessly through the retro interface, faithfully derived from the vintage hardware for an authentic experience.
• Two Pedals in One - While the original SDE-3000 was monophonic, the SDE-3000D takes it a step further by offering two discrete delays with their own set of parameters and mono or stereo modulation capabilities for each delay. Explore a world of sonic possibilities by running the delays in parallel, panning them for evolving stereo colours. Alternatively, chain them in series to craft intricate rhythms and achieve reverb-like depth.
• Compact Design - Ideal for integrating into pre-existing pedalboard designs, the Boss SDE-3000EVH Dual Digital Delay offers enhanced versatility compared to its rackmount counterpart. It incorporates three footswitches directly on the pedal, enabling immediate control over memory selection, tap tempo, delay hold, momentary effect activation, and more. Furthermore, two control jacks allow for the connection of up to four footswitches, two expression pedals, or a GA-FC/GA-FC EX for external operation. The inclusion of TRS MIDI I/O adds to its connectivity options. With a wide range of assignable targets available, the SDE-3000EVH delivers extensive real-time control capabilities that surpass those of the original SDE-3000.
