Joyo debuts the Aquarius Multi Delay & Looper

Joyo has expanded its R-series with the R-07 Aquarius Multi Delay & Looper. This unit is loaded with a suite of features, including eight delay presets and a looper.

A standout feature of this pedal is its multi-mode capability. You can employ its delay or looping functions individually, or combine both for a lush, complex composition.

Aquarius’ delay section, as mentioned earlier, lets you pick from eight stunning presets. Classic presets include digital and analogue delay, warm tape and tube echo, as well as the popular reverse echo effect.

For those after a quirkier sound, the Aquarius offers a Low Bit preset that can generate lo-fi repeats, and a Galaxy preset that produces a spacey delay with glitchy reverse trails.

Aquarius’ looper section, on the other hand, is fairly straightforward, but it does have up to five minutes of recording capacity. Its loops are also editable, so you can overdub, stop and delete the recordings as you see fit.

Controls-wise, the pedal has four key knobs and a looper button. Here are the details:

• Level/Volume knob:
