Keeley 30ms Double Tracker Pedal Overview
Designed to work with guitar, bass, keyboard, and vocals, this stereo effect pedal provides a versatile array of studio-style doubling effects which are useful for increasing the thickness of an instrument's sound. Also included is a reverb simulation of the famous reverb chamber in Studio Two.
The 30ms Automatic Double Tracker can be used in mono with a built in “Abbey Verb" control, or in stereo as the Double Tracker Pro. The 30ms offers altered and detuned effects similar to those of a chorus pedal, but without the regularity of a LFO oscillator in Dimension Mode. In this mode you have the ability to create up to two different voices for a stereo double tracked field. The user controls the tuning and delay for results that are stunning mono or, through two amplifiers, sublime stereo.
Abbey Mode offers something more similar to a conventional chorus in that it simulates synced tape decks running with varying tape speeds. Stereo or mono, this mode gives players a wide, lush sound without sounding like a conventional chorus pedal. Lastly, the team at Keeley created a unique Slapback Mode for rockabilly sounds. The Slapback is now a double tracked echo with the two altered voices. Add the Keeley Abbey Verb to this mode to create stunning, new effects.
In Stereo Double Tracker Pro Mode, the unit drops the reverb channel in favor of complete control over the double tracked voices. Each of the two voices can be tuned up to 30 cents sharp or flat. Those voices are then delayed by up to 30 milliseconds for subtle to very distinctive doubling sounds. Via internal switches, users can program the wet output to have either dry and effected sounds or just the effect, giving them true double tracking in stereo– live.
