BOSS and EVH Unite to Bring You the Legendary Eddie Van Halen Dual Delay Sound
EVH and BOSS join forces to bring you the SDE-3000EVH Dual Digital Delay, an authentic recreation of the stereo delays at the heart of Eddie Van Halen’s massive three-cabinet live stage guitar sound. Based on the vintage Roland SDE-3000 rackmount delay, this powerhouse processor puts two fully featured SDE-3000s in one floor-based pedal, coupled with extensive connectivity to build a wet/dry/wet rig just like Eddie’s. You also get eight presets curated by EVH with the exact settings from his actual delay units, allowing you to experience the master’s expansive spatial delay tone in your own setup.

Guitarists have often split their perspectives on delay units into two distinct camps: analog and digital. Keywords attached to analog often include “warm, rich, organic,” while those given to digital, on the other hand, might lean toward “precise and clean”.

One of the early classics in the digital realm, however, set a standard for lush, musical delay tones that has reigned supreme for four decades, and established a sound that perfectly blends precision and character into a third realm that beautifully captures the best of both worlds. We could call this “Vintage Digital,” a third distinct realm capable of delivering the finest form of delay effect available by melding digital and analog in perfect harmony.

All in the Detail
From one part of the supporting circuitry, the clock that controls the sampling rate—generated by an analog oscillator—wasn’t 100% accurate, introducing small rate deviations that induced an appealing modulation in the delay sound. Elsewhere, the Delay Phase and Feedback Phase circuits, accessed via front-panel switches, mixed signal paths in a frequency-dependent manner that induced appealing modulation in delay and feedback sounds, again, further enhancing the richness and depth of the SDE-3000’s perceived “tone.”

• Special edition dual delay pedal jointly developed by EVH and BOSS
• Based on the legendary Roland SDE-3000 rackmount digital delay from the 1980s
• Eight EVH presets with the exact settings from the two SDE-3000 delays in Eddie Van Halen’s live rig (the EVH presets are locked internally but allow for output level adjustments)
• Versatile connectivity for creating an EVH wet/dry/wet rig and integrating with various mono and stereo setups
• Classic appearance with the signature EVH logo and stripes
• Warm vintage digital delay sound with extended features for modern rigs
• Distinctive retro display and panel controls based on the original SDE-3000
• Includes two full-featured delays, each with independent parameters, mono/stereo modulation, and panning
• Widely adjustable delay time with two range settings: 0–1500 ms and 0–3000 ms
• Characterful modulation inspired by the original circuit design
• Phase switches for the primary delay and delay feedback loop
• Adjustable low-cut and high-cut filters for shaping delay feedback sounds
• Send/return functionality for patching in an effect pedal or using the four-cable method
• Selectable impedance on the effect return for optimizing tone with different amplifiers
• Selectable series or parallel operation for the two delays
• Save and recall sounds with 92 user memories
• Adjustable noise suppressor
