 [00:00:00] Emily: Welcome to get offset. My name is Emily and I’m here today with a dog man devices go fly a kite delay pedal, and it is more than just a delay pedal. It’s an analog voice delay with a sin and returns. He can feed whatever you want through the trails. Let’s talk about the controls really quickly. We very simply have repeats time and mix, and we have.

[00:00:27] Uh, two options for you there in terms of length, we have short, which will toggle between 60 and 600 milliseconds of delay time and long at 615 at 1200 milliseconds of delay time. So, um, you’re not going to. The whole wide ass range of, um, delay. You have, sorry about the noise. You have a little bit more controlled to finely tune where you want to be.

[00:00:59] So I’m going to start this pedal just with self, and then I’m going to put some wild and crazy guy. And the single chain. So you can really get, um, the vibe all through itself. It is loosely based on the delay that is in there, air pedal, which I demoed in half. Um, it’s more, uh, it’s cleaner. It doesn’t go into oscillation on his own is my understanding.

[00:01:25] Um, it requires outside pedals to do that as a brighter delay line as well. So let’s see what we’re working with. I’m using my, her signature Stratocaster and my fender tone master super reverb.

[00:01:52] I’m going to have the mix at noon for just most of, uh, most of them let’s keep the start with the repeats around the like eight o’clock

[00:02:27] I was like eight,

[00:02:33] not quite self oscillation. This is.

[00:02:44] So that’s fading into the horizon gracefully.

[00:03:39] See how fast? That sounds real slat. Backy I cut. My nails says we’ll see how this sounds like.

[00:03:51] It sounds very echoey.

[00:04:45] I like that.

[00:05:01] This is long as that short delay time gets

[00:05:50] So it sounds like if we turn the mics all the way up,

[00:05:57] it feels like a more, that’s not obviously a hundred percent.

[00:06:03] I’m actually going to keep it there. The rest of the demo. Cause I like it.

[00:06:11] It does have a very nice analog feel. So let’s go ahead and switch it to the long setting away. Make those repeats, uh, short as a possible cause that I’m going for about 600 milliseconds to about six 15. So it’s going to be pretty approximate

[00:06:43] mistakes.

[00:07:48] actually do feel like the a are louder than the dry signal up there. I want to turn it back to 50.

[00:08:50] let’s go back to put everything in the middle and I’m going to try experimenting with some things in that effects loop stick with me. I still have to go fly. But now I have the bid reactor, which you might remember. She got the demos for both of these. I’ve done them both recently, but I have the fossa bomb, uh, plus pedal also based out of Ohio from buzz.

[00:09:14] And then I have the bit reactor from RPS effects. So, um, both of those are gonna go through and they’re supposed to just be here on the repeats so you can hear better. I’ve turned the repeats all the way up and the mix all the way up, still have short repeats going. Um, Yes,

[00:10:12] but you can, you can definitely hear it.

[00:10:19] Totally can hear that, man. That’s kind of funny what turned that down. So the next time I use it, I won’t lose my damn mind. All right. I

[00:10:34] hear that a lot better.

[00:11:06] I’m going to switch out the bomb for, um, let me see the best way. I wanna switch out the fuzzball bomb for, um, the pretty bird woman chorus.

[00:12:23] It’s pedal did say it needed help getting into oscillation so vacillation and that did help it get into some self isolation. So that was awesome. They did help with the trace on some more subtle stuff.

[00:12:59] Uh,

[00:13:13] that I love that sounded super duper haunted. And I was really, really, really into that. I bet a tremolo would be really cool. I wonder if I have one, like immediately handy. Oh, Spaceman Delta to I. So noises

[00:15:09] maybe they can’t live at harmony. Maybe a little bit goes a long way. Maybe they probably can. It’s just kind of hard. I’m just kinda throwing things at this right now.

[00:15:39] It gives you that kind of rubber band sound.

[00:16:32] Cool. Well, maybe I should call that less of a demo of the go fly, a kite and more of like adventures with, with go fly a kite, because I certainly had some, um, you know, You’re going to have to experiment with that effectively because certainly some things were working better in it than others. Um, I was trying to find something that was going to go into self isolation a little bit.

[00:16:58] I found that more quickly and easily surprisingly with those modulation effects with the tremolo and the course, I really expected to find them, um, with a dirt pedals, but I think it was just like the nature of the ones that I chose perhaps. So I’d be really curious to see how. Like a more open kind of fuzz, like, um, like the roots tech phys fuzzes, I should say how those stand up to, um, the, the sendin return of, of the, uh, the go flag Cade.

[00:17:32] Maybe they’d be great. I really love the wishy newness, uh, that came with adding that chorus, that pretty bird woman from native audio and the Delta to harmonic tremolo was really super duper neat. I loved the sounds both of those, um, created, they were exciting. They were inspiring. Um, And they, yeah, they were extremely fun to play and I could have played with them a lot longer.

[00:17:59] So check it out. Um, big, thanks to Lance for sending me this pedal. He’s been fun. He’s made some really exciting things these past, uh, probably like year and a half. So check out everything he’s been coming out with. This is the first pedal of his that has not that I’ve had, hasn’t been hand , um, it’s available on his website.

[00:18:22] Check that out. He’s got a lot of really cool things coming here. This is, yeah. That element series, which is nice. I have the firefighters and the air. Uh, which of course this is kind of based on

[00:18:36] turn that down. Yeah. So, um, as always, please, uh, support small builders, uh, for anything else that you use. Might ever want to buy, please use our affiliate links.
