The Empress Superdelay isn't your basic delay. Sure it does basic delay sounds, and it sounds better than anything else out there while doing them. But if all you want is a simple delay, the Empress Superdelay isn't for you. The Empress Superdelay is for musicians who want to be inspired by their pedals, not limited by them.

"It's great to see a company improving a tried and true effect ,such as delay: since i got my SuperDelay i have been using it non stop, with NIN, Blindoldfreak and Modwheelmood. I am really happy with the variety of modes and i have yet to explore them all. At the moment i am obsessed with rev mode c...it's an incredibly creative tool, and it helped a lot to recreate some of the textures from the NIN " Ghosts" album, live. Empress created much more than an effects pedal: the Superdelay is a creative tool."

- Alessandro Cortini (Nine Inch Nails, Modwheelmood)

• The Empress Superdelay does not run off of batteries. It comes with a power supply. The Empress Superdelay requires 300mA, positive tip, 9 to 12 VDC. You can power the Empress Superdelay from outputs 5 or 6 of the Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 2+. You'll need to use the red barrel connector. You must set the corresponding DIP switch away from the NORMAL position. Also, since the Superdelay requires nearly 300mA, you should only use the other output for a much lower current pedal.
