DigiTech HardWire DL-8 Delay/Looper Guitar Effects Pedal with True Bypass at a Glance:
  • True bypass
  • High-voltage operation

True bypass
Serious musicians are highly selective in their guitar and amp choices. After all, it's the foundation of their tone. Adding effects to their signal chain is done judiciously. And when they turn off an effects pedal, they need to know it's not creating undesirable noise or coloring the unique character of their tone. In a true bypass pedal, the signal passes straight through the box when the effect is bypassed. When it's on it's on. When it's off it's off. All HardWire pedals feature true bypass.

High-voltage operation
With the high-output pickups found on some electric guitars, it's not unusual to hear clipping when playing through an effects pedal. This occurs when the voltage range produced by a guitar's pickup is greater than the operating voltage of the effects pedal - normally limited to the voltage supplied by the effect's battery or power supply. HardWire pedals incorporate special circuitry that increases the operating voltage "headroom" above that of the typical pedal. As such, HardWire pedals are compatible with a wider range of guitars and are also at home in an amplifier's effects loop.

DigiTech HardWire DL-8 Delay/Looper Guitar Effects Pedal with True Bypass Features:
  • True hardwire bypass
  • Constant high-voltage rails
  • 11 delay types/seven delay algorithms (Digital, Analog, Tape, Modulated, Lo Fi, Reverse, and Loop)
  • 9V battery operation (PS200R adapter sold separately)
  • Level, Time, and Repeats controls
  • Tails On/Off switch

The DigiTech HardWire DL-8 lets you conjure incredible sonic textures and loops!
