Electro-Harmonix Canyon Delay and Looper Pedal Reviews

Delay, Reverb, and Looper Pedal with 10 Delay Effects, 62 Seconds of Loop Length, Tap Tempo, and Secondary Controls

The EHX Canyon Delay/Looper is much more than meets the eye. Onboard you'll find ten time-based effects, such as a Deluxe Memory Man-style analog delay, a reverb with plenty of control for matching your needs, a 62-second looper, and much more. And they can all be controlled with onboard tap tempo. The four control knobs are FX Level, Delay, Feedback, and the effect selector, and like many other pedals from EHX, the Canyon packs a lot of extra tweakability and tones under the hood. If you need a ton of ambient power, but don't have much room left on the pedalboard, check out the EHX Canyon.

EH Canyon Delay and Looper

By Steve from Central Florida
Music Background: Semi retired pro in a touring tribute band.

My sales engineer, Dave Brow, recommended this when the TC Elec Flashback 2 wasn't available. I love it! Great sounds and easy to manipulate. I added the mxr tap pedal and I have all I need. Thanks, Dave, you're the best.

Canyon by electro harmonics

By Michael C. from Eagle Idaho
Music Background: Bass

The canyon by electro harmonics is a pretty cool pedal. I use it for bass. I especially like the shimmering setting and the echo setting. I have placed it at the end of my pedalboard . It's a keeper.!

I'm keeping this pedal! Works very well and sounds good. I did a video review on YouTube but you can find it on rumble as well.

Finally got this pedal and I'm stoked! Every setting is awesome, especially the shimmer and reverse. The EHX Canyon is everything that I hoped it would be. I'd highly recommend this pedal to anyone and everyone!

Perfect match for my EHX Oceans 11

By Bernie K. from Newington, CT

I bought this pedal for the delay options, but the simple looper is a plus. Like all EHX pedals, this one is built solid and has loads of features. Combining it with the Oceans 11 gives you so many interesting sounds that it's easy to get lost for hours.

Such a good pedal :)

By Robert J. from Chicago, IL

I like this pedal so much that I got a second one. Secondary functions are totally worth exploring, especially with the DMM, tape, and octave types. The octave delay can transform into an awesome harpsichord/organ sound. I also love the reverb, but now I have an Oceans 12.

AMAZING EHX PEDAL

By Fuzzy B. from The Great State Of TEXAS
Music Background: Studio owner Engr, Foh Engr , Guitar for many years, Rock/ Metal

I have another brand delay pedal, and it was time for something better, and this is it. EHX must have some of the best minds in the business. I don't know how they did it, not just delays, the shimmer is beautiful. and a lot of different types of delays to choose from and a lot of control. this will make sound better than I really am. I have used EHX pedals since 1969. and they honor there warranty, great company. it would be a trip to get inside Mike Mathews mind for a preview of what is coming next. he is the original thinker in this field, all the others hang on his coat tails. as always Sweetwater takes care of you. ROCK ON.

November 3, 2022
By Timothy H. from ASHLAND, KY

I initially was out looking for a BOSS DD-8 digital reverb but the shop did not carry BOSS Pedals, so, he recommended that I try the Electro-Harmonix Canyon. I added it to my Sweetwater purchased pedal board and the group of effects that I have on the board. I ran it to the Fender Deluxe Reverb re-issue amp and connected an American Fender 60th Anniversary Tele and started going through all of the possibilities of configurations. I set the FX to SHIM and set the LVL at about 11 o'clock. I was in my own state of tranquility. The swell on each and every chord and note is just mind blowing. The technology in this effect pedal is well worth the money even if you are not a Don Felder, you will be amazed at how good this makes you sound. This thing is great.

EHX Canyon

By Robert from OH

I was never much of a delay person until I got the EHX Canyon. This pedal packs a lot of punch into one pedal although I probably won't use the looper and a couple of the effects seem gimmicky but the others are great. I especially like the Echo, Memory Man and Tape among others but the Reverse Delay is my favorite. It's quickly become a staple in parts of almost all of my songs since day one of owning. Still playing around with this, a lot of fun and unique sounds but that reverse delay really has me intrigued. Get it now, set it to reverse and see what I mean...naem I tahw ees

I've only had this device for a couple of days and I'm already using it in recording! Very cool versatile delays and more. I'm running a Mod 11, Hot Wax, Pitch Fork, and Attack / Decay through this thing and it all sounds good!

EHX Canyon Delay/Looper

By John from South Florida
Music Background: 50+ years guitar/bass/sousaphone performing professionally

I haven't tried the looper yet I must admit, but the delay/reverb is superb. I love the fact that you have separate controls for the delay and the reverb so you can dial in as much or as little of each on their own. I got this pedal for one specific effect for two songs my band does that require it and so far this unit has delivered.

Very well made, solid, noiseless. This is a professional quality product right out of the box, no need to send it out for mods or tweaks.

Swiss Army Knife of DELAYS

By GuitarMan84 from TEMECULA, CA

It's a fantastic piece of equipment, a desert island pedal, in my opinion! I love the reverse on this thing, moreso than that of my Boss DD7. Sounds warm and instantly inspiring. I run my Boss delay into it, so maybe that's why I don't experience any volume loss. Quite the opposite happens. With the FX level raised, there is a bump in overall volume. Might be because Boss pedals are buffered (and so is my fx loop). Shimmer is one of my favorite settings as well, great for ambient tones (especially if you're already sending a delayed signal into it). The octave setting sounds pretty cool too, especially if you're running a sub octave pedal like an OC-3. You can cover the whole range! Just, too much good stuff. The looper is the only weak setting. Get a ditto looper instead as I'm sure you'll want to capture all of the Canyon's great tones.

Canyon delay

By Sweetwater Customer

Fantastic little pedal. I was looking for a stand alone reverb pedal but read about everything else this pedal can do and thought I"d give it a try. What really surprised me is how much I love the looper. It"s something I didn"t know I wanted until I checked it out. Way cool. I highly recommend checking it out!

EHX Canyy

By Marc from Blairstown, NJ

This pedal is awesome and is really involved for such a small pedal. I"m still getting the hang of it. Mostly with the looper. Tons of options and tones. Came with a power supply which was very nice. I should be set for delay on my pedal board for a very long time.

This pedal is loaded

By Rob A.
Music Background: Producer, engineer, artist

I`m having a ton of fun with this pedal. It is absolutely loaded with features and like EH stuff does it sounds great. I used it for a gig last night playing for a music meditation group and is was a perfect fit helping to create textures and soundscapes and then dial back just a little for more traditional playing. The only drawback is you cannot play through the effects while using the looper function.

So much and many sounds in a little device.

By Richard from Simpsonville SC

So much and many sounds in a little device works great, integrates smoothly with my Reverb and Compressor Sustainer pedals. Good quality product worth the price.

Soooo Gooood

By Sweetwater Customer

Absolutely love it. I use it as a tabletop pedal and tap it with my hand so I can throw the feedback all the way up and warp the delay, sounds crazy.

Very useful pedal

By Musician /. from Los Angeles area

Worth it for the Verb/Delay, Tape Delay, and Deluxe Memory Man emulations. Other settings, icing on the cake. Explore the "hidden" secondary knob functions to really fine-tune the effects to your liking.

Changes everything

By J from R
Music Background: Hobbyist

EHX has several famous modulations effects like the Memory Man and the Holy Grail. When it came to delays, I liked having a variety of options. The TC Flashbox X4 got close but the sound quality was always too digital and cold for my liking. I tried the Canyon on a whim and WOW!! This pedal is the end all be all for my delay needs. It's warm and I can get such a variety of tones out of it. I can get reverb sounds that work for surf, I can get a traditional delay, I can get a memory man delay. It's obvious that they put their best work into this pedal. It's been a game changer for me. In the past, I tended to believe that pedals that did multiple things did them all poorly; and that it was better to stick to a pedal that does 1 thing good. But this pedal has proven me wrong. It is the single most amazing pedal that I own.

This Pedal Slaps

By Sweetwater Customer

If you"ve ever shouted into a canyon, you might have high expectations for this pedal. Lemme tell you tho, this pedal is like shouting into a golden canyon on Mars while you admire the beauty of an otherworldly moon above your head and take the last few puffs of space grass.
Literally out of this world.

One Of The Most Inspiring Dealys Out There...

By Bill M.
Music Background: Professional singer/songwriter, guitarist & recording artist for 30 years.

This is my 7th EHX pedal. They're all amazing. The Mel-9, the Soul Food, and the Electric Mistress just deliver over and over an inspiration that I love. As a songwriter & recording artist, I find this to be one of the most inspiring pedals I have ever come across.

Enter The Canyon:
The Canyon is a no nonsense/incredibly intuitive pedal. Sure there's a manual, but even if you just unbox it and start "digging in," the treasures will unfold quickly.
I've had the EHX Canyon on my pedal board for my last 3 albums. The Octave, Shimmer, Tape Echo & Deluxe Memory man emulations are brilliant & tend to be my personal favs, but every thing here is highly usable. Nothing digital sounding about any of them at all.
Gorgeous & regal & full of rock & roll soul.

Bravo, Electro-Harmonix
Long-time rep, Aaron Regenold,fanswered my questions and got this out the door in in excellent fashion.

Cool Pedal

By Sweetwater Customer

Great sounds - for a small pedal!

July 28, 2018

Jack of all trades

By Marion C.

I have a boutique reverb that has a bit more to it ( but it does not have the tap for 8ths and 16ths)
. I quickly learned to run it through another channel and make a more complicated sweep of reverbs. I found that the octave echo set close and one repeat and then modulate it Phase, Flange, Roto-Vibe, etc, and you have a Hammond Organ sound.
I find myself wishing that I could use more than one selection (loop, reverse echo, e.g.), so this effect is one of two effects of a certain type. This instantly could add to a chain and have a second reverb, a second delay, a second octave and all in one box. If you wanted to go with a small pedalboard, this one pedal could replace a number of devices.
I have mostly been going for sustain and ambience, but I tried for choppy short notes. I put a compressor and set the attack up and sustain down. Then, on the Canyon, I pushed the little button twice to make the notes 16ths. After that, I set a tremelo on a "hard" setting. you can get some choppy, short notes that way.

Holy Crap, Batman!
What a steal! This small pedal packs a serious punch! Just unboxed and hooked up a couple days ago, and starting getting some spectacular results in the first few minutes - by just doodling around..

Love the product, and would highly recommend!

My Fav

By Bill S. from Minnesota
Music Background: primitive amateur

Had to have this after watching the demos. Love the shimmering octaves and dreamy reverb and modulated delay. But put this in the multi mode, turn the feedback up to one o'clock and the delay down to nearly off. Wow, what a funking tone playing my PRS through a Boogie. Grease. I've bought about a dozen pedals this year and this is easily the funnest. I'm more or less replacing a TC Flashback, which I still like for the slapback and just to give a little sweetening. Like others said, just turn it on, spin the mode selector and start noodlin'.

Game Chnager! I am floored!!!!

By Ken K. from Pittsburgh, PA
Music Background: Professional performing guitarist for a variety of musical situations. Professor of Guitar at Slippery Rock University and California University of PA

I just got the EHX Canyon tonight from Sweetwater via FEDEX and just spent an hour checking it out! Th EHX is a very deeply versatile pedal that is also good at its basic delay function. You can get a chorus sound and a reverb sound to die for, in addition to the delay, delay variations and looper. The shimmer feature is a welcome and musical (in moderation) addition. And I love the Deluxe Memory Man emulation. This will be my "go to" delay sound for quite a lot of musical moments. And a silent non clicking foot switch and tap tempo as well??? Oh, MY!!! EHX knocked it out of the park with this pedal! Plus ,it"s beautiful looking! Also, kudos to Nick LaMendola for his fast service!! It"s the perfect Father"s Day gift!!

Great for Worship Board

By Dan from So ILL

Added this to worship board and bought additional tap... This adds a great shimmer effect to bring ambience. Turn delay time down and feedback up and use as a reverb or tap it in. Stack with another delay for swells. After going through many pedals for secondary delay I am sold on the canyon. And for the price and Sweetwater 30 day guarantee..pull the trigger

Canyone life

By Randall B. from Tennessee

I love this little guy. Great options for a wide variety of effects. I'm leaning heavily on the octave setting for "fake keyboard" needs, but I look forward to spinning the dial for the studio possibilities of add-on frills.

Great Delay!

Best Delay in the market

By Edward D. from Edmonds, WA
Music Background: Guitar player for 20 years

I've owned various delay pedals such as Akai, BOSS, DIGITECH, MXR, Quantum Leap and tried the Strymon Timeline pedal. This pedal has a lot of features and great sound quality for the price. I love the tap tempo feature and the easy/quick access "divide button" to switch to quarter or dotted time based on your set tempo which is indicated by the light too. I think EHX is an amazing company in coming up with high quality pedals with cool new features and listens to musicians like me who wants to see and hear the quality of the products for the actual value that I'm paying for.

Best delay pedal I've owned thus far!

By joeyjoejoe from Pennsylvania
Music Background: Songwriter, instrumentalist, recording artist, producer (18+years)

As soon as I saw the first video promoting the Canyon delay pedal, I knew I just had to have it! I preordered ASAP and was beyond impressed by the service Sweetwater provides, as always =D

If I had one mild criticism it would be that the preset selector knob is a bit on the flimsy side and unless I dial in from one end or the other it makes it hard to tell which preset I was previously using; not worth subtracting any points for such a versatile pedal at such an affordable price.

The two gems for me are the Shimmer and Cascading Octave presets, though I use all of them. The tap tempo option is really useful instead of trying to dial in the right timing for the delay. I use a cheap keyboard sustain pedal to get the job done for now and that's worked fairly well.

What I end up using the least is the looper, simply because I have a TC ditto in my chain as well.

Nice Delay Pedal

By Dale from Hillsborough N.J.

I just have it set for a kind of Slap-Back Delay. It seems more transparent and less dark than my Boss Delay on the other pedal board.

Absolutely amazing

By Adrian from Chicago
Music Background: Indie rock, shoegaze

Tried this out at my local guitar shop and in 10 minutes I was already blown away. Even the workers at the shop would stop and watch me play it in awe. Like they bought the pedal and had no idea what it sounded like! Sold it to me brand new with the box and everything for $115 and I couldn't be happier. READ THE MANUAL because I would never have known about the secondary mode or exactly what each mode did. The manual is great and explains everything in detail. Can't wait to show off to my guitar buddies when I bust this baby out.

Your imagination is the limit with this pedal

By Andrew from Denver

I've have had the canyon delay for about a month and even after hours with this pedal I'm still discovering new sounds. With the secondary knob function the sounds you can create are near limitless. You can go from the most subtle of delays to far out cosmic sounds. My keyboard sounds great played through it too. Oh, and it has the best reverse delay I ever heard.

One suggestion for anyone who owns this pedal: experiment playing with only the wet signal and the delay knob turned all the way to the left. You can turn the canyon into a modulation pedal. Or a unique sounding distortion while in the tape mode. Use the secondary knob controls change the tone. This pedal is ripe for experimentation.

Many Pedals in one

By Stoptheclocks

This pedal is great and is a great value because of all you get. Love the delays and reverb as well as the looper. You will need your manual because you will want to get the most of use out of the pedal. Highly recommend the EHX pedal if you are looking for some special delay effects and reverb. Its absolutely worth the money.

Don't Delay, Get This Pedal Immediately

By Dan J. from Asheville, NC

Hands down best pedal I've ever set foot on. So versatile, compact, tweakable, affordable, incredible.....the shimmer sound will blow you away. I'm a huge fan of the reverse, reverb, octave, and tape delay modes as well. I've been an EHX fanboy for two years and they've been consistently putting out great products this year, can't wait to see what's next from them. Thanks to Sweetwater for making my entire consumer experience hassle free. I pre-ordered this beauty the day it was announced and my man Clint B. made sure I got it as soon as it came in. Thanks again!

Deep Canyon

By John B. from NEW MILFORD, NJ
Music Background: Boomer performer!

This box is an incredible value considering the quality and quantity of effects you can dial into this small footprint pedal. I just got mine and can tell there are many usable effects I can use and many more to explore as time goes by.

Even if you find one or 2 effects you actually use regularly it is a bargain. The treasures are sure to be found when you go DEEP into THE CANYON! For me the Deluxe Memory Man and Shimmer settings alone are worth the price of admission.

Call Mike Picotte and order now and tell him JB sent you! Thanks Mike, great service as always!

April 3, 2017

Amazingly unlimited

By Bill K. from NY - New York

Had it a few days, but it may take weeks to tap into all the potential sounds. The reverb is off the charts in versatility, and the delay varieties seem limitless. The shimmer settings will bend your brain, as will the deluxe memory man, the tape echo emulation is spot on to my old Space Echo. Oh yeah, a sixty second Looper with auto save will enhance the fun. By all means, watch the you tube demo, and you get the picture of just some of wow this pedal delivers. When I first watched the demo, I figured this to be priced in the B9 C9 range of $220. Watch the demo, then call Sweetwater. You'll get it quickly, and they'll make sure you're as pleased as I am!
