Full Description

Based on the Famous “Oil Can” Delay Units

The Black Fountain emulates the iconic sounds of the renowned "oil can” delay units which produced a chorus-like modulation on the repeats of the effect signal, along with a warm repeat cycle for a truly unique tone. Taking the best elements of these old pedals, the Black Fountain incorporates the same craftsmanship and attention to detail as modern pedals, ensuring the pedal is working at its optimum performance.

Modern, Organ, and Vintage Modes

Featuring a three-way toggle switch, the pedal provides a selection of different modes that are based on the short and long delay “oil can” units. The modern and vintage modes are both based on the long-delay “oil can” units, offering 800 milliseconds of delay to create massive sounding tones. In both modes, the time and repeat controls mimic the functions of the vintage units, while the fluid control can be used to introduce a modulation based on wobble characteristics. The difference between the two modes is that Vintage provides a more grittier and grainier feel to its repeats. Organ mode provides an effect based on the short-delay “oil can” units, offering 211 milliseconds of delay with variable rate and depth controls. In this mode, the mix control can be used to dial in 100 percent of the wet mix to create a vibrato effect.
