The handmade Vahlbruch SpaceTime Tap V2 is an updated version of the German company’s delay + reverb combo, one of its best-selling pedals.
While V1 featured the two effects in a rather straightforward fishing, this new version adds a series of features that widen the device’s sonic pallette (mostly on the delay side of the circuit) including:
- A new modulation effect for the echo side, adjustable with “Rate” and “Depth” knobs.
- There are increased subdivision options (quarter, eighth, eighth triplets, dotted eighth, quarter triplets) linked to the Tap Tempo functionality triggered via the left footswitch.
- Active 3 band equalizer also on the echo side.
- An internal jumper lets you switch the echo feedback signal pre/post-EQ, replacing the 3-way brightness switch found in V1.
- Internal switch for either Buffered Bypass or True Bypass.
- Internal switch for “spill over” in buffered bypass mode.
- Internal switch for kill dry.
The SpaceTime also features the company’s quiet and almost indestructible Magnetic-Transducer-Button “MagTraB” switching technology.
We added the SpaceTime to our in-depth article about the best delay+reverb pedal combos.
