Old Blood Noise Endeavors BLACK FOUNTAIN

The Black Fountain reflects back to the days before digital delay, emulating the sounds of the famed and elusive oil can delay units. These units emphasized a chorus-like modulation on the repeats of the effect signal as well as a beautiful and warm repeat cycle. The Modern mode emulates the classic long delay oil can units. The Time and Repeat controls mimic the functions of the vintage units, while the Fluid control introduces modulation based on the characteristic wobble of the electrostatic delay platter. The Vintage mode is similar in function to the Modern mode, but has a grittier and gainier feel to the repeats. Both the Modern and Vintage mode have a delay time of 800 milliseconds. The Organ Tone mode is based on the Tel-Ray Deluxe Organ Tone, Fender Dimension IV and other short-delay oil can units. The vintage units had a fixed delay time of approximately 20 milliseconds. In addition, the Mix control is capable of dialing a 100% wet signal. The Organ Tone mode has a delay time of 211 milliseconds.
