Tempo LED – This light pulses in time with the delay effect for easy delay time setting. When in Ratio mode, the light will pulse on the 1:1. As you advance through the different subdivision ratios, the LED will stay the same.

In-Depth Examination of Features The SFX-10 Déjà Vu Tap Delay w/BBD is capable of a huge range of sounds from the traditional, old-school delay tones you remember hearing on your favorite recordings to pristine quality exact replicas found in today’s digital equipment and software. But in between those two points, and with the addition of modulation and the wet loop, lies a fourth dimension of previously unimaginable sounds, sure to spark inspiration in all forms. - Page 8 Slap Back Heaven Ratio/Delay Time: set for short delay time, or choose 4:1 Ratio and tap it in to the beat of the song. Chicken pick your way into heav- en with analog slap back with a little extra bite from some digital blend.
- Page 9 A Space Odyssey This is where digital and modu- lated analog converge. Find new dimensions as these delays trail down into modulation stew. Rhythm Chime Ratio/Delay Time: Choose Dotted 8th note in Ratio mode, tap it in to the beat of the song. This will give you a textural wash of rhythm and attack that will fill a lot of space without...
- Page 10 For the Sonic Adventurer Notes on Tap Tempo! The Tap Tempo feature of the SFX-10 is an incredibly powerful tool that takes this pedal way beyond what “normal” delays can do. It totally removes the guesswork of trying to sync your Delay time to a song’s groove.

Page 11: Loop Mode
Long Delay Times (Press and hold) The Déjà Vu is capable of extremely long delay times (around 20 sec- onds) and contains a stealth loop mode at the end of the Delay Time knob’s travel. (Loop feature not available in Ratio mode) The Tap switch is intelligent. -

Playing with the Wet Out/Loop By now you’ve figured out that the SFX-10 Tap Delay w/BBD can do clas- sic delay beautifully. But it can do more—a lot more. The key to many of the SFX-10’s most unique effects lies in the Wet Out/Loop jack. So what does this jack do anyway? We’re glad you asked . -
Page 13: Pitch Shifter
Wah Pedal: Rock back and forth and your delays will talk back to you. Or leave it in one position as a narrow band frequency boost, sweeping from extremely “lo-fi” to a thin, “transistor radio” effect. Equalizer: Shift the tone of the delays anywhere you want within the available frequencies of the EQ. -

Page 15: Battery Life
Battery Life Most digital delay pedals have the distinct reputation of “eating” batter- ies. They consume batteries quickly and it is generally recommended to use them with powered DC adapters whenever possible. The Déjà Vu is no exception. It is a very powerful pedal, and therefore requires great power to operate. - Page 16 Seymour Duncan offers the original purchaser a one-year limited warranty on both labor and materials, starting from the day this product is purchased from an Authorized Seymour Duncan Dealer. We will repair or replace this product, at our option, if it fails due to faulty workmanship or materials dur- ing this period.
