About Boss DD-8

Take your guitar playing to new heights with the Boss DD-8 Digital Delay Pedal, the most comprehensive and feature-packed compact series delay pedal from BOSS. This high-quality, durable pedal offers an expansive sonic range, extended delay time, and a multitude of control options, all within a standard BOSS pedal design that seamlessly integrates into any mono or stereo setup.

The DD-8 is equipped with eleven modes, offering a spectrum of delay colors from basic to exotic. This includes clean digital delays, vintage analog, tape types, modulation echo, and specialty delays like shimmer and reverse. The new Warm type offers softer echo tones, while the +RV type blends delay and reverb together for a unique sound. For dynamic ambient textures, the Warp mode is ideal, and the GLT type is perfect for creating glitchy rhythmic effects.

Experience the power of stereo with the DD-8's full stereo I/O support and three output modes. The default independent mode provides linked parallel delays on the left and right channels, maintaining the true balance of stereo input sources in the effect sound. The panning mode offers ping-pong delay effects, and the wide stereo mode enhances spatial depth for a more immersive sound experience.

The DD-8 also offers extensive real-time delay options to bring your music to life. Tap in tempos with the onboard pedal switch, and control the Warp and GLT modes for unique expressive effects. Add one or two footswitches for on-demand tap tempo, extended looper control, and a Twist effect for soaring echo sounds. An expression pedal can also be used for continuous control of level, feedback, or delay time.

The built-in looper is a versatile feature, ideal for practice, checking sounds at gigs, and creating on-the-fly backing while performing. All looper functions can be controlled with the onboard switch, or connect one or two footswitches for external control of the looper's stop and clear functions.

The DD-8's smart I/O functionality allows for easy setup for any application, supporting a variety of mono and stereo connections, including discrete dry and effect outputs for wet/dry setups. The dry signal can even be defeated entirely, perfect for delay-only blending in a parallel effects loop.

With the DD-8 Digital Delay Pedal, you're not just getting a pedal, you're getting a tool to explore and expand your musical creativity. Whether you're a seasoned professional or a budding musician, the DD-8 is the perfect addition to your gear.
