They say:

SOUND
Drawing inspiration from our history in tape and bucket brigade echo servicing, our design goal was creating floaty and colorful repeats with a chaotic yet musical degradation. That’s the heart of the thing, the whole point.

RANGE
With a 30ms-1250ms range, the Benson delay goes fast enough to do chorus, vibrato and slapback, and slow enough to create blurred and haunted soundscapes, with a whole spectrum of warbly musical sounds in between.

ALIENS
Hold down the tap knob to boost feedback for some self oscillation! Perfect for holding notes out, and especially for making alien invasion noises in tandem with the time knob (within a toe’s reach). Works when the feedback knob is up a bit. Does not introduce unwanted clicking sounds into the signal path. Adjustable via internal trim pot.

WARBLE
The Low Frequency Oscillator has a tremendous range of both speed and depth, as well as sine, square and random waveforms. Does warble, seasick, tape flutter, all the good sounds.

TAP
The Benson Delay has the most accurate tap tempo ever applied to the PT2399 thanks to Bontempo, an open source technology concocted by Antoine Ricoux at Electric Canary, which was then refined and implemented by film colorist Octave Zangs (two geniuses). Each pedal CALIBRATES ITSELF IT’S SO COOL.

SMOOTH
We wanted to avoid the more modern issues of delay design; like the digital jaggedness that can come from adjusting the time control on a digitally clocked device, whether analog or a fully digital simulation (HAS THIS EVER HAPPENED TO YOU?). In other words, let’s not assume the aforementioned aliens have glitchy spaceships.

WOW THE NARRATIVE
The design process was characteristically obsessive and obliquely dysfunctional, so we’ll spare you most of it. Lots of bright people in the industry left their mark in one way or another. Special shout outs to Jack Deville, Bryan Sours and John Snyder. Lessee...after dutifully slogging through the modern bucket brigade scene for a while, we found our paradise in the form of the ubiquitous PT2399. Turns out, when you treat it well, you can get a great sounding delay with a massive range out of it.  We utilized a combination of gooey compander chip, analog filtering, and careful gain staging (amp designers are decent at that). We hope you love it.

THE MENU
To access LFO waveform and tap division menu, hold down BYPASS for two seconds, then tap TAP/ HOLD once. BYPASS switch toggles between SINE, SQUARE and RANDOM waveforms, which will blink 1, 2 or 3 times respectively. TAP/HOLD switch toggles through QUARTER, DOTTED EIGHTH, and EIGHTH note tap divisions, and the LED will blink 1, 2 or 3 times (respectively). Hold down BYPASS for two seconds to exit MENU.

Center Negative 9VDC power supply, 100ma current draw.

Comfy & amazing!!!
Size: Medium, Color: Colorful, Size: Medium, Color: Colorful
Oh my goodness! I have never been obsessed with a pair of socks but, here we are. They are thick which I usually dislike but they don’t feel thick even with my chuck taylors on, I usually have either sweaty or cold feet they are neither in these. Love love love the colors so vibrant, haven’t washed any yet will update on how it wears. No toe fuzzies, color transfer to feet, they fit so well, barely a seam…dare I say these are my perfect socks! Wish the price was not so much, which honestly for what I’m getting isn’t that bad but I’m poor… GO GO WOOL!!! BAA

Large a tad small for 11 mens supercomfy and well made
Size: Large, Color: Color Mixed(quarter Socks)
These are quality socks, but for me the large are a bit small at size 11 shoesize. They are warm in any conditions, and warm days they can feel a bit stiffling, and I have probably sweatier than average feet, so without well ventilated shoes, my feet still get damp. They are so soft and cozy in cooler/cold weather. But again, it the heat, with some sweat, this makes them a bit "slippery" and my feet slide in my shoes on steep off-camber terrain. I would probably buy these again, except I have 6 pairs, and my wife buys me expensive branded socks I'd never purchase for myself.

Awesome hiking socks!
Size: Large, Color: Grey
Very comfortable and durable. I'm very happy with the quality of these sicks. I wear a mens size 11 shoe. The back of the sock come up about 1/2" above the back of my shoe. They are a perfect fit. I couldn't be happier with these. They are just the right thickness, too.

Improved my foot health
Size: Medium, Color: Color Mix
I’ve been dealing with athletes foot for decades and using daily maintenance medication for longer than many people reading this have been alive. I generally don’t have any issues other than I always at least one or two nails that are cloudy and brittle. I’ve tried synthetic blends in the past but this just seemed to make things worse so I always go back to cotton. I was been reading about the benefits of wool so I thought I would try these socks. I had several clouded nails at the time but in just a few weeks of wearing wool socks I noted subtle improvements. At the time of writing this it has been over 4 months of wearing wool socks exclusively and all my nails are completely clear and healthy! I honestly can’t believe it since I haven’t had seen completely healthy nails since I was a teenager. I do continue to use daily antifungal maintenance medication but the only change has been the wool socks. I think part of the issue was the cotton socks being soaked with sweat when I took them off at the end of the day regardless of the season or activity levels. The wool socks, however, are usually dry. Even after taking them out of a hiking boot on a hot day on the trail they will feel damp but not soaked. Consequently, they dry out completely on a rock while taking a short break. By staying dry they don’t bind up and cause hot spots like cotton socks. That, and I think they just distribute the heat better than cotton and I wouldn’t be surprised if they are actually cooler on hot days. Of course, in cooler temps they are warmer and I did appreciate how much so until the other day when I wore some cotton socks that felt like I was wearing ice cubes on my feet when I was walking around my hard wood floors at the end of the day. With these particular wool ankle socks I did note a hole around the toes with a couple of the socks after a few washes. My experience with cotton socks is that even the smallest of holes will grow exponentially with each use and so I generally just discard them. At first, I was disappointed thinking that these socks would not last but it does not appear that the holes grow like cotton. In fact, I haven’t thrown one wool sock away. My eyes aren’t great at close distant but it seems like the holes I noticed disappeared. Even if they didn’t it doesn’t matter since they do not currently seem to be a problem. I haven’t had these socks long enough to notice any thinning at wear points like cotton socks but I suspect that since they don’t bind like cotton they are less prone to wear. I now have a dozen pairs of wool ankle socks and I’ve gotten in the habit of putting them in a separate bin for washing otherwise they end up getting tumble dried with the rest of the family’s close. They have been in drier a number of times and I suspect they look a little more aged as a result. If I wash them separately with other delicate items I just lay them out on the floor after washing since they aren’t noticeably wet after a spin cycle and they completely dry out overnight. At this point I would rather put on a pair of wool socks straight out of the washer then put on dry pair of cotton socks since the results would be the opposite at the end of the day.

Nice look, good value
Size: Large, Color: Grey Mixed(quarter Socks)
Fit great. Cushion on bottom is exactly what I wanted, top and ankle sections are much thinner as I wanted, so as not to be bulky. Expect they will well for walking and hiking. They did wash well although did lose some of the softness but did not shrink.
