  • Page 3 Description Introducing the Eternity Delay- our most sophisticated design to date. The Eternity Delay is engineered with six studio-grade algorithms, six onboard presets (127 with MIDI), full MIDI control over every knob, switch, algorithm, preset, and bpm with MIDI clock. Additionally, it features a live mode, preset mode, and kill-dry mode. It also boasts the world's most advanced tap tempo and stereo analog dry thru.

  • Page 5: Tape Delay

    Overview Algorithms The Eternity has 6 studio grade algorithms to choose from. Below details the sounds for each algorithm. Tape Delay Designed to emulate tape machine delay’s. With sonic characteristics of warm tube saturated repeats, each repeat gets progressively darker and the speed of the tape reels can fluctuate, causing artifacts such as wow and flutter.
  • Page 6 63 milliseconds to 23 milliseconds. The Cntrl 1 knob widens the stereo spread of the ESD delay, at fully counter-clockwise the stereo spread will be off and gets wider as its rotated clockwise. JET Signature Rhythm (JRD) Delay...
  • Page 7 This delay is not commonly found on other delay pedals however it is a sound that I (Junior “JET”) have used extensively for creating massive sounding rhythm & lead sounds. This delay is very similar to the Dual Delay however it is important to not have the delay’s ping pong back and forth.

  • Page 9: Global Settings

    Operating your Eternity Delay Global Settings To enter the Global Settings, hold down the Bypass switch when power is first applied to the pedal. The Mix and Repeats LEDs will be glowing and cycling through various colors. Release the Bypass switch when the Mix and Repeats knobs turns either solid White or Red (if Kill Dry mode is enabled the LEDs will be Red).

    Red | Dual Delay Pink | ESD Delay (Echo, Slap, Doubler) White | JRD (JET Signature Rhythm Delay) To engage Preset Mode, double tap the Bypass switch. This will quickly jump between the delay used in Live Mode to the delay stored in the cue’d up preset. To disengage Preset Mode and jump back to Live Mode, double tap the Bypass switch again.

    preset. When each knob is rotated, its corresponding LED will flash, and will return back to a solid color once the knob is rotated over the stored location. Control Knobs Mix Knob The Mix knob controls the overall loudness of the repeats. Rotating fully counter-clockwise will set the repeats volume to minimum and fully clockwise to maximum.
  • Page 13: Bypass Switch

    Bypass Switch The Bypass Switch functions as the main navigation for the pedal, below outlines the functions attached to this switch. Short Press Performing a short press will engage/disengage the pedal. When engaged, the Bypass LED will illuminate and the delay signal will be heard. This is called “Live Mode”, the sound of the delay will be heard based on the current settings of each knob, toggle switch, and the active Algorithm that is illuminated by the Repeats LED.

    accurate the tempo will be. Toggle Switch 1/4  Note Setting Setting the Toggle Switch to the top position will create repeats with a 1/4 note subdivision based on the tempo that has been tapped in by the Tap Switch. Dotted 1/8 Note Setting Setting the Toggle Switch to the middle position will create repeats with a dotted 1/8 note subdivision based on the tempo that has been tapped in by the Tap Switch.
  • Page 15: Saving Presets

    Operating your Eternity Delay Saving Presets Saving a preset is simple and quick. Cue up the current preset location you’d like to save a preset to (identified by the color of the Mix LED). Change the active algorithm (if desired) and dial in the settings on the toggle switch and knobs.

    You can also use a midi box/ hub that converts 5 pin Midi to multiple TRS outputs, like Traffic Control from JET or similar boxes from Strymon or Morningstar. You could also use a compatible Midi controller with TRS midi output's like the Futurist by Matthews Effects or various...
  • Page 18: Changing The Midi Channel

    MIDI Features and Controls Changing the MIDI Channel From the factory the Eternity is set to receive Midi messages on Midi channel 1, however this can be changed upon powering up the pedal. After applying power to the Eternity, hold down the Bypass switch while the pedal is in startup mode (Mix &...
  • Page 19 You have two options for creating presets. The first option is to use a "smart" midi controller (like the JET MCX) that can send multiple simultaneous midi messages. Just send individual CC messages to turn the Bypass switch on, select the algorithm, and set the values for each knob/toggle switch. ...

  • Page 23 Frequently asked questions...
  • Page 24 What are the Power Requirements for the Eternity? The Eternity requires a 9 volt DC negative tip power supply that is rated for at least 300mA of current. Powering the Eternity above 9 volts will result in damage to the pedal. We recommend using an isolated power supply with the Eternity being powered from its own port.
  • Page 25 How Many Presets can be Saved to the Eternity? The Eternity can store up to 127 presets on the pedal. The first six presets can be created and stored using the knobs and switches on the pedal. The remainder of the presets (7-127) can be created and stored using a MIDI controller using CC messages.
  • Page 26 Can I use the Eternity in Mono? Or does it have to be used in Stereo? The Eternity can be used with any board/setup including mono, stereo, or stereo inputs with sum to mono output. ***When using the Eternity in mono, use the Left inputs and outputs only. When using the Eternity to sum to mono, using the Left output will sum both outputs to mono.
  • Page 27 Does the Eternity Have an External Input for Tap Tempo? No it doesn’t, however the Eternity will receive BPM information via MIDI clock signals.
  • Page 28 Are There Trails When Switching Algorithms or Bypassing the Eternity? When switching between modes (Live or Preset) or switching between presets, the pedal automatically enters a "graceful transition" state, the Bypass LED will begin to flash letting you know that the Repeats knob is gracefully returning to its new setting. This only applies when staying within the same algorithm and staying on the same subdivision setting.
  • Page 29 I Hear a Weird Noise, What Can I Do? Most often, noise issues are related to the power supply feeding the Eternity. The first thing to check, does the power supply meet the requirements to power the Eternity (9V DC 300mA). Supplying voltage above 9 volts can damage the Eternity and supplying 9V with not enough current will cause unpredictable behavior and noise issues.
