| Providence products are born from the process of solving various problems, and satisfying the desires of our many users. The Providence technology is fused with the needs of our actual users, to develop unique and practical products. Before each product is completed, stringent testing is repeatedly carried out, with an eye toward pursuing products that guarantee high reliability, but with the emphasis on musical sound quality. |

●The Providence HBL-2 Heat Blaster pedal is designed to deliver a modern distortion sound that is rich in harmonics and has a fast attack high-gain tube distortion in a compact pedal. This is a sound that won't get buried in any band. What's more, the HBL-2 does not produce the excessive compression that can be a problem with many distortion pedals, for exceptionally natural response. The Heat Blaster is ideal for use with the clean channel of a multi-channel amplifier.
●In standard“true bypass” circuits the instrument signal passes through two switch contacts when bypassed. The HBL-2 Single Contact True Bypass configuration ensures that the signal only passes through one switch contact when bypassed, for unmatched signal quality as well as reliability.
●A NORMAL/LOW CUT switch provide convenient low-frequency control. When set to the LOW CUT position the low frequencies are attenuated for a crisp, tight distortion sound. The LOW CUT position is also useful for subduing excessive lows when using a 7-string or tuned-down guitar.
●In addition to indicating the pedal's on/off status, the HBL-2 LED provides effective visual battery power monitoring. When the battery voltage drops below 7 volts the LED will become dimmer and begin to go out. The effect will still operate at this voltage, but to ensure optimum performance the battery should be replaced as soon as possible.

Most modern digital delay units include a tap delay function, but many do not accurately translate the tapped tempo into delay time. Furthermore, the direct sound is often converted to digital format, resulting in some latency and a sound that is not truly "direct." Not only does the DLY-4 CHRONO DELAY provide precise tap-to-delay setting, but it can memorize two separate delay times as well. The direct signal stays in the analog domain from input to output, passing through the acclaimed Providence VITALIZER(R) circuit so that no signal degradation occurs, and a high-performance mixer circuit where it is combined with the delay signal. After the precision delay signal is converted back to analog format it is processed via analog ECHO HARDNESS, FEED BACK, and MIX controls for a totally natural blend with the direct signal. The net result is a high-resolution delay effect that has extraordinary depth. In addition to refined sound, the DLY-4 CHRONO DELAY features a simple interface that allows fast, intuitive control.

●DELAY
Delay time is adjustable from 1 to 2700 milliseconds. The current delay time is accurately shown on the 4-digit 7-segment LED display.
●Switchable Display Modes
Delay time can be displayed in milliseconds (mSec) or beats per minute (BPM). The BPM display is not simply a "rough estimate." BPM delay times are displayed with metronome accuracy.
●Tap Tempo
The delay time is precisely set according to the tempo tapped on the TAP switch.
●A/B Preset Memory
The A/B preset memory allows two different delay times settings to be memorized and recalled via the footswitch as needed.
●Beat Split
With the specified delay time as a quarter-note reference, seven delay time variations ranging from half notes to eighth-note triplets can be directly selected via the BEAT SPLIT knob. Rhythm-based delay time settings that previously required tedious calculations can now be made in an instant.
●Analog Circuitry Featuring the VITALIZER(R)
Both the VITALIZER(R) that prevents degradation of the direct signal and the mixer that combines the direct signal with the delay signal are analog circuits that have been designed and built to the highest possible sonic standards.
●External TAP Input
A momentary (non-latching) type footswitch can be connected to the EXT.TAP jack to allow remote tap delay operation. When this function is used the A/B - TAP footswitch on the CHRONO DELAY unit is dedicated to A/B preset switching, so that tap delay and A/B preset switching operation are simultaneously available via separate footswitches. |
