About the Multi Delay block

The Multi-Delay is a rhythmic multi-tap delay block, available on the Axe-Fx II, AX8 and FX8.

In the current generation devices, the Multitap Delay block, Plex Delay block and Ten-Tap Delay block provide the (enhanced and expanded) functionality of the Multi Delay block which has been deprecated. Confusingly, the Multitap Delay block is often referred to as: Multi Delay.

It has 10 types:

  • Quad Tap
  • Plex Delay
  • Plex Detune
  • Plex Shift
  • Band Delay
  • Quad Series
  • Ten-Tap
  • Rhythm Tap
  • Diffusor
  • Multi Tape Delay

More information in the Owner's Manuals.

Tips, tricks and troubleshooting

  • Apply High Cut if you want the Multi Delay to not interfere with the dry signal.
  • If you need a specific number of repeats, use Band Delay or Tap Ten Delay.
  • In Plex Shift Mode, adjusting Shift will affect pitch, tempo and the number of repeats. This is not a bug.
  • Multi Delay doesn't support spillover between presets.
  • Multi Delay features a "true" Mono Tape Echo mode.
  • Effects wizard Simeon provides a load of magnificent delay effects
