Thicken - Multi-Tap Delay/Chorus
Malekko's Thicken is a captivating multi-tap delay and chorus pedal that conjures up lush, enveloping textures for the discerning guitarist. Conceived in collaboration with Colin Newman of the legendary post-punk band Wire, this pedal's distinctive aesthetic takes inspiration from Newman's own Eastwood signature guitar. At its core, the Thicken offers two distinct multi-tap delay modes, each imbued with its own character and capabilities. The Exponential mode unleashes a mesmerizing, widening delay, while the Random mode introduces an unpredictable, ever-evolving texture. Blending these delay lines with a rich, shimmering chorus, the Thicken can sculpt an immersive sonic tapestry, perfect for atmospheric indie, shoegaze, or even avant-garde soundscapes. But this pedal's true magic lies in its Preamp control, which imbues the signal with a captivating thickness and harmonic complexity. Tweaking the Spread knob allows you to fine-tune the delay times, from tight and focused to gloriously ambient and diffuse. The result is a pedal that can conjure up everything from subtle, shimmering textures to mind-bending, swirling walls of sound. Whether you're a post-punk purist or a sonic explorer, the Malekko Thicken is a must-have addition to your pedalboard, capable of elevating your guitar tone to new heights of depth and character.
