Description

The Anasounds Utopia Deluxe is the ideal delay pedal for musicians who crave rich, textured sound and versatile functionality. Combining the warmth of analogue delay with the convenience of modern digital features, this pedal is designed to enhance your musical experience.

At the heart of the Utopia Deluxe are dual PT2399 chips, providing up to 800ms of pristine, clean delay and 1000ms of gritty, dirty delay. This range gives you the flexibility to craft your perfect sound, from subtle echoes to deep, atmospheric delays. The tap tempo feature, with three selectable subdivisions including the classic dotted eighth note, ensures your delays are always perfectly synchronised with your music.

A standout feature is the vintage inspired preamp, modelled after the legendary Echoplex EP 3. This preamp is strategically placed before the delay effect to add warmth and richness to your tone. With a single volume knob, you can easily control the gain, allowing for a smooth transition into subtle overdrive when needed. This preamp not only enhances your tone but also provides a touch of vintage character to your sound.

The Utopia Deluxe’s modulation capabilities are controlled by the innovative Bliss knob. Located centrally, this knob allows you to switch seamlessly between modulation presets like Tape, Chorus, and Vibrato. It adjusts the modulation type, depth, and rate, providing instant access to a range of finely tuned settings without the complexity of multiple controls. This ensures that you can achieve professional grade modulation effects with ease.

In addition to its core features, the Anasounds Utopia Deluxe includes a versatile three way preamp switch. This switch lets you bypass the preamp entirely, activate it in conjunction with the delay, or use it independently to warm up your signal. This flexibility is perfect for tailoring your sound to different musical contexts and instruments. The Tone control further enhances this versatility by allowing you to adjust the brightness of your repeats, making the pedal suitable for guitars, basses, synths, vocals, and more.

Crafted in France by a dedicated team of musicians, the Anasounds Utopia Deluxe is built with the utmost care and precision. Using high quality components and handmade bamboo, this pedal is as reliable as it is beautiful. The robust construction ensures it will withstand the rigours of both studio and stage use.

The Anasounds Utopia Deluxe is not just about technical prowess; it’s about musicality. The tap tempo function keeps your delays perfectly timed, the vintage style preamp adds harmonic richness, and the Bliss knob simplifies modulation adjustments. This makes it a versatile tool for any genre, from rock and pop to experimental and ambient music.

Experience the perfect blend of vintage warmth and modern versatility with the Anasounds Utopia Deluxe. It’s more than a delay pedal; it’s a gateway to a world of sonic creativity.
