Congratulations, you got the Maquina del Tiempo!
The legendary sound of a tape echo two heads and the Tap Tempo technol-
ogy, are combined in this delay generating machine. Create ambience, rhythmic
patterns, extend the dimension of sound and do ad-innitum repeats with the
Feedback control at your feet.
• Double simultaneous delay
• Up to 1200ms of delay time
• Tap Tempo with several subdivisions
• Vintage tape echo sound
• Analog circuit for saturation and lters
• Modulation of the repeats
• Innite feedback and Tap Feedback
• Analog Dry Through
• True Bypass
Operation
Just like a two-head tape delay unit, the MDT has two delays that run together,
with two chips being fed in series (one after another). Each chip provides up to
600ms of delay, which allows us to get up to 1200ms in total.
At the output of the rst chip, the tone of the repeats is clear and cleaner, perfect
for rhythmic delays or when you want it to cut in the mix. At the second chip, the
repeats are darker sounding and with more analog saturation, which increase
gradually in each repeat. Perfect for all kinds of ambients and shoegazing.
When both are combined new sounds are obtained in a superposition of rhythmic
echoes, in particular when using the special subdivision options.
Subdivisions table
Controls
01 - LEVEL Output level of the delay.
02 - LEVEL T/2 Output level of the rst chip, with delay time T/2 (See Subdivisions
table).
03 - REPEATS Number of repetitions, by means of analog feedback. At maximum, it
will generate a runaway feedback. Feedback is taken from the output of the effect, so
it is affected also by both Level controls.
04 - MOD/DIV Modulation of the delay time. In mild settings, repetitions are
blurred, achieving the organic tape echo sound. The depth increases up to ex-
treme effects of tape wow and vibrato. Holding down the Tap Tempo switch for 5
seconds, gives access to the DIV control, allowing you to select the mode and tap
subdivision. Turn the knob while the switch is held down, and release the switch
once the desired position is marked. For optimum performance, position the knob
to the center of the desired value.
05 - TIME Total delay time. From 160ms to 1200ms.
06 - INPUT Effect input, connect your instrument here.
07 - OUTPUT Effect output, connect your amplier here.
08 - DC 9V Power supply input, connect your dc adapter here.

Controls
09 - LED Lights up when the effect is engaged.
10 - TRUE BYPASS Turns on/off the effect. The true bypass switch allows your
sound to remain intact when the effect is off.
11 - TAP TEMPO Optical switch for the functions:
• Tap Tempo: Controls the delay time by means of taping in the switch. To use it,
simply tap on the switch between three and eight times, at the desired speed. The
resulting tempo is the average between the taps, and will remain until a new tempo
is set by either tapping or turning the TIME knob.
• Tap Feedback: Holding down for one second it enables/disables the feedback in-
crease. It allows to increase the repeats above of the Repeats setting by using your
foot. Feedback here is taken from the second chip output and is independent on
the setting of Level controls, so it can achieve some different sounds in particular
when using the special subdivisions. Indicator led will change to Green color when
the feedback is activated.
• Tap Div: Holding down for ve seconds it gives access to the DIV control setting
(see item 4). Indicator led stops blinking and changes to Orange color.
12 - LED Tempo and mode change indicador. Blinks at the current delay time set-
ting and its color indicates the mode in use.

Use and care of the pedal
• Use only regulated 9v dc adapter, with negative center polarity. In no way should be
connected to 220V or adapters of other kinds.
• Avoid dropping, hitting or exposing the pedal to extremes of humidity or temperature.
• To clean the pedal, use a dry cloth.
• Do not remove the protective silicone legs, they protect the pedal from shocks and
external pressures.
Problems and solutions
• The LED lights up but there is only sound when the effect is in bypass:
Make sure the instrument is properly connected to the INPUT jack, and the amplier
to the OUTPUT jack.
• The indicator LED doesn’t light up:
The pedal is not connected to a working DC adapter.
• The effect is too weak, or the sound is unduly saturated:
Use an appropriate DC adapter. If the pedal is connected in a loop, check its send
and return levels.
• The pedal makes a low pitched hum:
Feed the pedal with a regulated dc adapter of sufcient amperage
• The sound cuts out intermittently:
This may be due to a failure in the true bypass switch. See warranty terms.
Terms of warranty
• The warranty is only valid for the original owner for 2 years from the date of pur-
chase.
• The warranty must be requested on the trade where the pedal was acquired.
