Freeze-Hold Delay In A Stompbox

Keeley Electronics tells us that the RK2000 Funk Siren is the first-ever faithful pedal recreation of the legendary 1983 DM2000 rack unit delay. This is what they have to say about it...

Inspired by the classic delay, famously used by Trey Anastasio, the RK2000's 12 bit architecture, unique Hold feature, and dramatic modulation offer a sonic palette that not only captures Trey's definitive "Funk Siren" but extends beyond any single genre. Transform a single second of sound into a limitless atmospheric soundscape.

No matter if you're looking for clean classic delays, gritty and modulated tape-style echoes, washy analogue atmospheres, a modulation wonderland that spans an incredible gamut from subtle doubling to liquid chorus, frantic flanging and all the way to deep-diving pitch vibratos or a simple yet magical sampler to kick the sound-design doors wide open, RK2000 is dead-set on delivering at the highest level imaginable.

This is a pedal destined for everyone's pedalboard.
