Keeley HALO Core High Fidelity Delay Pedal

The Keeley HALO Core is a compact, high-fidelity delay pedal developed in collaboration with renowned guitarist Andy Timmons. Designed as a streamlined version of the original HALO Dual Echo, the HALO Core retains the rich, studio-grade sound and tone-shaping capabilities that made the original so popular, while introducing a simplified control set for ease of use. With three selectable modes - Andy Timmons' signature HALO dual delay, quarter note delay, and dotted eighth note delay - the HALO Core gives players access to a wide range of delay styles suitable for everything from subtle ambience to complex rhythmic layering.

Built using Keeley's latest DSP technology, the HALO Core delivers pristine, high-resolution audio. True stereo input and output provide expansive, immersive sound that enhances live performances and studio recordings alike. Whether you're running into a clean amp or using an elaborate stereo rig, the HALO Core ensures consistent, high-quality output. The inclusion of switchable Trails or True Bypass modes allows players to customise how the effect behaves when disengaged - preserving delay tails or providing a completely clean bypass depending on preference.

This pedal is optimised for flexibility in any setup. Players can choose between All-Wet or All-Dry modes to tailor the pedal for traditional amp input use or integration into an effects loop. The redesigned Tap Tempo footswitch allows users to easily sync delay time to the tempo of their performance. Additionally, the enhanced Infinite Hold function allows for extended delay layering, great for creating pads or ambient textures during live sets or in recording environments.

Advanced tone-shaping tools are also included in the HALO Core. The Saturate control emulates tape-style compression for a warm, analogue-like delay response, while the Delay Tone and High Pass Filter controls let players sculpt the tonal character of the repeats. These features offer fine control over the delay's presence in a mix, allowing users to dial in anything from dark and vintage to crisp and modern delay sounds.

The Keeley HALO Core is an ideal choice for guitarists who need professional-grade sound and versatility in a compact, easy-to-use pedal. It delivers the signature tone Andy Timmons spent decades refining, combined with Keeley's industry-leading design and build quality. Whether on stage or in the studio, the HALO Core provides a powerful and flexible delay solution for players of all styles.
