Detail 01
Clock: 500Hz–48kHz
Clock changes the reverse engine’s sample rate, affecting fidelity and available delay time.

Independent shopping perspective
Setback is a programmable reverse delay built around a dedicated reverse engine. Clock changes sample rate, fidelity and available delay time, while Div and Speed let you alter rhythmic division and playback pitch independently. Three onboard presets and live mode make it practical to move between prepared reverse sounds during a set. Stereo routing, MIDI control and assignable expression support more involved pedalboard or studio signal paths without giving up direct control from the main knobs.
