Up for sale, a 1980s Maxon DM-01 Multimode Delay in mint condition, complete with the original box and paperwork. This uncommon Maxon offering was produced as part of the “Zero-One” series in the mid-’80s, available exclusively to the Japanese domestic market, essentially identical to the better-known Ibanez DML20.

An exceptionally versatile digital delay unit, the DM-01 packs a huge amount of functionality into a compact, pedalboard-friendly form factor. Delay times range from 0-1024 msec, with modulation capability via an LFO on the delay time. Controls include Delay Time, Speed, Delay Level, Delay Range, Width, and Repeat; the Delay Range belies much of this pedal’s versatility, a six-position rotary knob with various time ranges covering flanging, chrousing, doubling, vast echoes, and more. Crank up the Repeats for freaked-out raygun madness, or keep things subtle for slapback and atmospheric sounds. The DM-01 also features stereo functionality with wet and dry outs.

There’s barely a mark on the enclosure and the graphics are pristine The serialized silver foil “Made in Japan” label is present on the baseplate.

The original box is included, along with the owner’s manual and paperwork.
