Thermae

The Thermae by Chase Bliss Audio is an analog delay effects pedal constructed around four reissued versions of the legendary MN3005 bucket-brigade delay chip. It offers the ability to sequence, modulate, and overwork the delay to reveal the character of analog delay. The pedal allows users to push these chips beyond their intended purpose to generate melodies, reveal hidden textures, and explore long delay times of up to 32 seconds. It features synth- inspired controls to shape both sound and sequences, and advanced modulation for adding a secondary layer of motion.

Key features and specifications include:
- MN3005 x4 bucket-brigade delay chips
- Sequencing capability to create musical harmonies with spatial and textural shifts
- Step mode for manual pitch-shifting or pure analog delay
- MIDI, CV, and Expression control
- Presets and internal modulation of all knobs
- Mono I/O

- Momentary or latching bypass
- All-analog signal path
- True bypass (with Trails off)
- 9V Center Negative ~150 mA power requirement

The pedal is designed to explore the limits of analog delay by putting the chips under digital control, resulting in a unique and versatile delay effects pedal with a wide range of creative possibilities.
