DeLayla XL

The Carl Martin DeLayla XL represents the evolution of a modern classic, combining the beloved sonic characteristics of the original DeLayla with powerful new features for today's discerning guitarist. This analog delay pedal delivers exceptional sound quality that captures the warm, smooth essence of vintage slapback and delay tones from the golden era of the 1950s and 60s, while incorporating modern functionality that meets the demands of contemporary performance.

At the heart of the DeLayla XL is its superior analog circuitry, which produces rich, musical delays that sit beautifully in any mix. The warm character and natural decay evoke the legendary tape echo units of yesteryear, making it perfect for everything from subtle rockabilly slapback to lush, atmospheric soundscapes.

The SLAPBACK function gives you direct control over which delay serves as your primary effect, opening up creative possibilities from authentic vintage slapback tones to more complex dual-delay arrangements. The SB-TRIM control provides fine-tuning between the two delay circuits, allowing you to craft unique delay patterns and rhythmic textures that range from subtle doubling to intricate, layered repeats.

Modern gigging demands are met with the built-in TEMPO tap function, which allows you to quickly sync your delay time to match the exact tempo of any song. This feature is invaluable for live performance, ensuring your delays always lock in perfectly with the rhythm section.

The DeLayla XL features an internal power supply for clean, reliable operation without the noise often associated with external power sources. Connectivity includes standard 1/4" jack input and output, plus a remote footswitch input for expanded control options on stage.

Whether you're chasing vintage tones or crafting modern soundscapes, the Carl Martin DeLayla XL delivers the best of both worlds—timeless analog warmth with the flexibility and control that contemporary musicians demand.
