Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Silos puts three delay voices—digital, analog, and tape—into one compact pedal. Each mode offers up to one second of delay time, covering short rhythmic repeats through larger echo textures. Six preset locations let you store settings for quick changes between songs or sections, and tap tempo lets you set repeat timing from the footswitch. Connect an expression pedal for real-time control of delay level, feedback, or other mode-dependent parameters. The three modes can also be blended for hybrid delay sounds.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Live sets that need saved delay settings and quick tempo-matched changes between song sections.
- Creating short slapback repeats, extended echo textures, or blends of digital, analog, and tape delays.
- Hands-on delay manipulation with an expression pedal controlling supported mode-dependent parameters.
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
