These pedals will cause a peak in the midrange which emphasizes a narrow band of frequencies.<br \/>\nWhen you use an equalizer pedal, it is important to adjust the volume of the pedal carefully otherwise the volume of the eq pedal will influence the number of the repeats and by this might lead to an oscillation of the delay.<\/p>\n<p>The effect loop of a delay pedal is not only suitable for an additional modulation, it is also appropriate to alter the sound of a delay.<\/p>\n<p>Click <a href=\"https:\/\/delaydude.de\/de\/eqing-a-delay\/\">here<\/a> for some sound files relating to this topic.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sorry, this entry is only available in Deutsch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[269,676,1683,1681,263,268,973],"tags":[87,874,870,868,880,879,875,877,873,426,871,878,872,876,869],"class_list":["post-2133","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-analog-delays","category-boss","category-delays","category-digital-delays-pedals","category-pedalboard","category-pedals","category-tips-tricks","tag-analog-delay","tag-artec","tag-boosting-low-end","tag-boss-ge-7","tag-dirty-delay-repeats","tag-drive-pedals","tag-eight-band-equalizer","tag-fx-loop","tag-graphic-eq","tag-low-cut","tag-mid-boost","tag-parallel-mixer","tag-scooped-mids","tag-tone-control","tag-treble-boost"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p9GLlF-yp","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":4290,"url":"https:\/\/delaydude.de\/en\/strymon-volante-vs-catalinbread-echorec\/","url_meta":{"origin":2133,"position":0},"title":"Strymon Volante vs. Catalinbread Echorec","author":"Delay Dude","date":"Wednesday January  1st, 2020","format":false,"excerpt":"This is a comparison of the Strymon Volante with the Catalinbread Echorec.
