Electro Harmonix Canyon Guitar Effect

Electro-Harmonix Canyon Delay & Looper — Compact Multi-Effects Engine

The Electro-Harmonix Canyon Delay & Looper delivers ten delay voicings plus a 62-second looper in a pedalboard-friendly housing. Built around a digital circuit with buffered mono I/O, this pedal covers clean digital repeats, modulated sweeps, shimmer, octave delay, and a Deluxe Memory Man emulation across eleven selectable modes.

Eleven Modes and Hidden Parameter Access

What separates this pedal from a standard delay is its mode range. A dedicated DMM setting emulates the legendary Deluxe Memory Man, while the TAPE mode adds warble and tape-age character. Holding the Tap/Divide button unlocks secondary parameters — modulation depth, tape distortion, reverb mix — without menu diving.

Delay Engine and Tap Tempo

The delay engine covers a 5 ms to 3 s range, suitable for tight slap-back, dotted-eighth patterns, and long ambient washes. Tap tempo can be set via the built-in footswitch or an external momentary footswitch plugged into the rear-panel Tap In jack.

• Delay Modes: 11 (ECHO, MOD, MULTI, REVRS, DMM, TAPE, VERB, OCT, SHIM, S/H, LOOP) — covers digital, analog-emulated, modulated, and ambient textures
• Delay Time Range: 5 ms – 3 s — from percussive slap to cavernous tails
• Synchronizing your repeats to song tempo is easy using the built-in footswitch or an external Tap In jack.

Controls and Looper

Four top-panel knobs give immediate access to the core sound, and the looper records up to 62 seconds of mono audio — enough for practice, layering, or full song sections.

• Top-Panel Controls: FX LVL, Delay, Feedback, Mode selector — fast hands-on editing without menus
• Looper Length: up to 62 seconds — room for full song sections and overdubs
• To adjust hidden parameters like modulation depth and tape age, simply hold the Tap/Divide button.

Signal Path, Bypass, and Power

This model runs a mono in/mono out signal path with buffered bypass, preserving tone across long cable runs and large pedal chains. A Tails switch lets players choose whether echoes repeat or stop instantly when the pedal is bypassed.

• Audio: Mono in / Mono out — single-amp setups and stereo-free pedalboards
• Bypass: Buffered with Tails switch — natural decay or instant cut-off
• A 9.6 V DC / 200 mA adapter is included in the package for pedalboard-ready operation.
• Dimensions: 114 × 70 × 53 mm — compact Nano-sized housing
