The 3 Series Glitch Delay locks your delay time in place and lets random glitches change the playback speed. Each one happens inside the feedback loop, so the repeats bend, drag and warp without drifting off your tempo. JHS points to the Line 6 DL-4 and Bill Frisell's smeared, ambient delay work as the inspiration.
With Glitch turned fully down it is a warm, straight delay. Turning it up raises the odds of a glitch to as much as 50%, and the LED flashes with each one. Time covers 20ms to 980ms, Repeats adds modulation as it climbs, and an internal limiter lets the feedback run on without ever running away, with new notes stacking over older, fading ones. The Mix toggle sets the delay level at 35% or 80%.
Among the 3 Series delays it moves the most; the Delay and Tape Delay hold steadier.
