The new SDE-3 Dual Digital Delay by Boss is a tribute to the iconic SDE-3000 rackmount delay.

The SDE-3 comes with classic controls for level, feedback and time, while the stacked pots provide a range of additional setting options: In addition, independent parameters can be set for Depth and Rate for unique modulations, while the Hi-Cut control is enables a cleaning up of the high frequency ranges.
