Old Blood Noise Endeavors Mondegreen Modulated Delay

We’re back with another wild, amazing, unconventional effects machine from the crew at Old Blood Noise Endeavors today! Although it has been discontinued, the Mondegreen Modulated Delay is still readily available on the used market, and it is one of the crazier, more inspiring delays I’ve played in quite a while. Feeding delay into modulation, the crazy possibilities of a pedal like this are basically limitless…if you can figure out how to tame it…

The Old Blood Noise Endeavors Mondegreen is a digital delay, totally hellbent on giving you something different than what you feed into it. It’s delay, into modulation, and OBNE makes no bones about it – it’s weird! Perhaps it’ll be strange enough in your own hands or perhaps we’re just underestimating your adventurous nature? A three-way toggle switch selected between three modes of modulated delay:

STUTTER: A delay with a percussive tremolo on the trails
WHIRL: A modulated delay adding chorus on the wet signal
SHEER: A delay with increasing octaves on the repeats

In Stutter mode, at its lowest setting, the delay time will be short and the tremolo rate will be slow, while at its highest setting, the delay time will be long and the tremolo rate will be fast. An Expression input lets you take control over either the Time or Morph knobs (selectable via internal DIP switches) on the fly via an external expression pedal. The output level can also be tweaked via an internal trim-pot for boost, slight drop, or unity gain.

While you can no longer buy the Mondegreen Modulated Delay new, this gem is available for pretty good prices on the used market. And if you’re in desperate need of a wild echo unit with some cool modulation and off-the-wall sounds and sonic options, this is a pedal you should seek out ASAP. Be sure to swing by our YouTube channel as well, to see a small sample of some of the things this marvelous pedal is capable of…you won’t be disappointed, cheers!!
