The BL-44 is more than a pedal—it’s a tactile experience that invites experimentation. Using the Clock slider, you control the DSP’s “thought speed”, changing the sample rate and playback duration, causing the pitch to shift naturally as time itself bends. Meanwhile, the Speed control lets you manipulate the reverse playback rhythm, allowing you to create captivating harmonic layers and unexpected sonic artefacts.
With convenient wet/dry mix and volume controls alongside a soft-touch bypass switch, the BL-44 is engineered for players who demand precision and inspiration in a compact, stylish unit.
