Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
ARP-87 places four delay voices in a compact pedal: Digital, Analog, Lo-Fi, and Slap. Digital repeats are clear enough for rhythmic parts, while Analog is voiced to bring warmth and dimension to chords and lines. Lo-Fi lets you move the repeat character from warm and warped toward an AM-radio effect, and Slap supplies a quick slapback option. The footswitches also support temporary effect activation and momentary ramps, so a held switch can create a short-lived delay change during a part.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Rhythmic riffs that benefit from the clear repeats offered by the Digital algorithm.
- Chords and melodic lines needing the warmth and dimension of the Analog algorithm.
- Brief delay accents or parameter ramps activated by holding the pedal’s footswitches.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who need a tapped tempo to remain set after changing delay algorithms.

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01How do I switch between trails and no-trails operation?
Hold the bypass switch for one second while applying power. Disconnect power and repeat the process to select the other mode.
02What happens when I hold the bypass switch while the effect is off?
The delay turns on only while the switch is held, then turns off when released.
03What does holding the Tap switch do?
It temporarily ramps feedback to maximum; releasing the switch returns feedback to its knob setting.
