FoxPedal The Wave Dual Delay Reverb Modulation

After being one of our favorite brands for the first couple of years when Pedal of the Day first started, FoxPedal was absorbed by Creation Music Company several years ago, and has since, unfortunately, closed permanently. When they announced the closure, I scooped up the last version of one of my favorite pedals of theirs, The Wave Dual Delay Reverb Modulation, to have a little piece of that history in the shop. Finally getting around to demoing it here in 2025, I was reminded of what a great piece of gear this is – if you like wild tape delays, ambient reverbs and a bunch of modulation thrown in for good measure, you’re gonna love this one…

The Wave is a tsunami of tone, delivering classic tape delay sounds in an Analog/Digital hybrid. Featuring dual programmable delay times, it’s easy to dial in some incredible ambiance, moving from simple slap-back all the way to the outer reaches of the universe. The three-way Tape Mode knob lets you chose from three classic tape delay settings:

Binson Echorec: Get one long repeat followed by multiple shorter repeats. This classic tape delay was used extensively by Pink Floyd in their early years. Totally nebular.
Roland RE-201 Space Echo: Dual rhythmic repeats in a classic warm gritty delay. Used by everyone from Radiohead to Brian Setzer (who knew?).
Echoplex EP-3: Nothing crazy here, just a classic single analog-sound delay. This mode utilizes just one of the delays for a simpler straight-forward setup.

Reverb: Using the new Belton V3 reverb brick, this reverb creates some gorgeous dark natural vibes. Just adjust it up or down, or disengage it completely to suit your liking. The new “Decay” control allows you to adjust the room size and amount of modulation.
Modulation: Add tape-style warble to the delay signal with this incredibly rich optical modulation. With the flip of a switch you can set the modulation to either the first or second delay signal, or turn it off completely. Set it to the second delay signal, set the depth low and the rate to slightly off-match your delay to dial in some really messed up tape sounds.
Wash: One of my favorite functions here, the middle stomp switch is a momentary switch that stretches out the Feedback knob, bringing you straight to spaced out oscillation and release to bring it back to the knob feedback setting.

Seriously one of the most fun pedals you’ve ever played, The Wave Dual Delay Reverb Modulation has something for everyone, as well as sounds and inspiration you’ll never see coming. You sit down, plug this one in and the next time you glance at the clock, hours have effortlessly gone by – it’s that good. Since these are no longer in production, you may have to do a little digging to find one, but when you do, snatch it up – you’d have to really TRY to be disappointed with this amazing machine.
