1980s Aria ADS-1 Digital Delay Sampler Vintage Effects Pedal, Mint w/ Box & Paperwork, Japan

$169.99

+ shipping

Up for sale, a 1980s Aria ADS-1 Digital Delay Sampler pedal in showroom-clean condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original box and user manual. Ostensibly a clone of the Boss DSD-2, this Japanese-made pedal delivers up to 1200ms of Digital Delay and 300-1200ms of rudimentary sampling, powered by a proprietary 12 bit PCM.

Controls include Delay Level, Feedback, Delay Time, and Mode knobs, with a two-way switch to toggle between Delay and Sampler functions. When the pedal is in Delay mode, the Mode knob functions as a Range control, with four preset Delay ranges. When the Sampler is engaged, the Mode knob toggles between press-and-hold sampling or Record and Play, where the sample is recorded and then recalled by pressing the footswitch. The ADS-1 also has two output jacks for stereo functionality.

This pedal is in fantastic shape, with barely a mark on the black enclosure. The original box is included, along with the user manual/factory paperwork, protective plastic, and even the original Japanese receipt, dating the purchase of this pedal to ‘89.
