Hungry Robot reissues the Moby Dick Multihead Tape Style Delay V3 — third edition with eight controls and full stereo ins/outs. V1 (1590BB) and Compact V2 (125B) were five-control units.
V3 controls: Multihead; Saturation; FM Texture (White Noise Mod / Lo‑Fi); Wow & Flutter; Tape Age; Double Tracker; Blend; Repeats; Tap Tempo and Bypass footswitches. Multihead: Dotted Eighth (CCW), Quarter Triplets (CW), Off (middle).
FM Texture = White Noise Frequency Modulation; Tape Age "de-rezes" the output. Klowra Rilum Delay is a similar multihued tape-style delay. As of 2026-07-13, the price was £272. For modifying the pedal consult a qualified tech.
We now have a brand new fuller featured 3rd edition of the Moby Dick Multihead Tape Style Delay. The V1 had 5 controls on a 1590BB enclosure, then we had a shrunk down Compact V2 125B unit - also with 5 controls. And now the new V3 has 8 controls and full stereo ins and outs.
Original V1 Controls - Time, Mix, Subdivision : Quarter / Eighth / Dotted Eighth, Repeats, Modulation, Tap Tempo Footswitch, Bypass Footswitch.
V3 Controls - Multihead : < Dotted Eighth | Off | Quarter Triplets >, Saturation, FM Texture (White Noise Mod / Lo-Fi), Wow & Flutter, Tape Age, Double Tracker, Blend, Repeats, Tap Tempo Footswitch, Bypass Footswitch.
The key Multihead controls switches the Multihead states - Dotted Eighth to counter clockwise, Quarter Triplets clockwise, and Off in the middle.
This V3 edition is a significantly different pedal - with lots more shaping element to adjust the nature and degree of delay.
All the controls are fairly self-explanatory - bar the FM Texture one which is essentially White Noise Frequency Modulation - which along with the Tape Age - sort of de-rezes the output.
Interestingly I’m in the middle of doing a full breakdown of the Klowra Rilum Delay - which is also a multihued tape style delay with some of the similar controls, while the FM Texture of the Moby Dick is fairly unique.
This is a really cool properly full stereo multihued tape style delay. All-round really compelling and well worth your consideration.
The new Moby Dick Multihead Delay is $272 and equivalent on the Hungry Robot Webstore.
