Digitech DOD Rubberneck

Slapback? Check. Spacey dotted eighths? Check. A self-oscillating noise machine you can control without miserably hunching over your pedalboard? Also, check. The DOD Rubberneck Analog Delay pushes analog warmth to new heights with true bucket brigade circuitry, lush, organic repeats, and a whopping 1.5 seconds of delay on tap. This stunning range is then supercharged for expansive sonics with tap tempo control, modulation rate and depth, gain/tone for boosting levels or taming frequencies, ratio control, and much more. What really lands this pedal on Sweetwater’s list of hidden gems is the Rubberneck’s unique secondary features: Rubberneck and Regen Adjust. Each offers momentary time and pitch bends triggered by footswitch for seamless hands-free activation. Sound results range from subtle pitch warps to pulsating synth-like self-oscillation. Also onboard is optional footswitch control and a dedicated FX loop directly into the delay path for blending effects. The bottom line? The Rubberneck’s rich feature set and user-friendly layout offer incredible boundary-pushing bang for the buck when it comes to analog delay.
