So Nobels looks to have taken a leaf out of the Nux playbook here - who were the first to introduce Mini Stereo Pedals - empowered by TRS jacks / ports. So you get a fully immersive delay with 3 different voicings, and up to 1000ms of delay - for the digital mode. Along with Tap-Tempo - which you access by press-holding the Footswitch.
Controls - Time (553ms Tape / 402ms Analog / 1000ms Digital), Feedback (Repeats), Wet Mix, Mode : Tape / Analog / Digital, Hold Footswitch for Tap-Tempo.
There’s no modulation here, but you do get 3 distinctive voicings - which cover most of the classics - especially impressive for this size of effect. A few years ago you would have expected that Mini pedals were always going do be limited to Mono function - but now you’re seeing full stereo minis with extended feature sets.
In fact this looks to have very similar if not an identical feature set to the earlier Nux Mini Edge Delay. Prior to that I would have tended to favour the TC Electronic Flashback Mini for that form factor, but now would look to either the Nux Edge or this Nobels Mini Delay - which actually looks a little classier.
I feel that these stereo mini delays are a wonderful innovation, and they’re really well priced to - where this Nobels one goes for €99 / £85 and equivalent - well worth an investment! And should be available at leading international dealers any moment now!
