MARINER
Mariner is an analog delay designed to provide lush organic repeats, perfect for thick cascading lead lines, a swirly undercurrent on rhythm, or even murky self oscillation for swells or ambient vibes. Built to emulate vintage analog Bucket Brigade circuitry, there’s plenty of repeats on tap, and a tone knob that helps dial in the darkness or brightness of those repeats for a fully customizable sound.
