Axle Grease Delay

Warm Echoes · Self-Oscillating Feedback

Natural-sounding echoes with a wild side. The Axle Grease Delay covers warm, musical repeats up to 450ms — and when you push the Repeats control past the threshold into self-oscillation, it opens up into cascading feedback that takes on a life of its own. Everything from clean, subtle slapback to atmospheric, spacious textures and unpredictable oscillation in a single compact pedal. At the Axle Grease price point, there's no reason not to have one.

450ms of Maximum Expression

The current draw increases with longer delay times as the analog bucket-brigade circuitry processes more signal samples. Self-oscillation begins when the Repeats control is turned past approximately 85% of its travel.

Current Draw 26–39mA (varies with delay time)
Max Delay Time ~450ms
