Halo – Andy Timmons Dual Echo
The modulated dual echo of your dreams!!!
Andy Timmons’ mysterious sounding “Halo” effect is a modulated dual echo sound that has long been kept a secret by the tone wizard himself. Andy spent decades combining and crafting the sounds you can now get from the HALO.
The “halo” sound isn’t just an effect for Andy Timmons — this coveted delay has been a crucial component of the guitarist’s tone for decades, often imitated yet never replicated with absolute precision. With the Keeley Halo Andy Timmons Dual Echo pedal, Andy’s dynamic delay sound is immortalized in a single stompbox, making it easier than ever to tap into the mystique and aura of one of the electric guitar’s tone wizards. The Halo operates like two pedals in one, with A and B sides available to lock in delays and quickly switch between them.
A handy Rhythm Mode selector takes you from common delay types to a setting that instantly calls up Andy’s unique “halo” effect, with plenty of controls onboard to tweak your sound to perfection. Once you dial in the ideal effect, a built-in memory bank stores up to eight presets for instant recall, making it a cinch to take your signature sounds wherever you go. Whether it’s a versatile delay you’re after or a need to harness Andy’s tone for your own, the Keeley Halo Andy Timmons Dual Echo pedal deserves a place on every pedalboard.
Notes from the HALO dance rhythmically, almost creating a reverb diffusion. Those notes are held together with tape-style effects like modulation, saturation and compression. The results are stunning. The pedal comes loaded with his signature delay tone and you can program your own sounds and save them as presets. Easily bounce between Side A and B on the fly, essentially giving you two delay pedals in one. In addition to Andy’s signature “Halo” sound, there are numerous other rhythmic delays including: quarter note, dotted 8th, stereo rack mount analog delay, and a vintage multi-head tape echo. Stunning stereo and pristine sound quality are further enhanced with controls for saturation, tone, and shelving filters that give you the ultimate delay pedal.
Tone Factory
Use the Saturate control to add tape compression texture to your tone. The Tone and High Pass Filter controls your overall delay shape and mix. The Rhythm Mode selector delivers 5 delay types, including Andy’s unique “Halo” sound. Set the Time and Feedback controls low, and you can open up a world of ambient chorus and flanger effects. Run the HALO in stereo for incredible true-stereo imaging. Save your favorite combination of settings as a preset and the HALO becomes an incredibly compact multi-effect workstation.
The Sound of Two Delays
Use the HALO as two delay pedals that work in tandem, letting you switch between your main delay (side A) and an alternative (side B). With up to 1500 ms of available delay, set sides A and B for different delay times, then simply foot switch between the two. Our Smart Stomp System allows you to press and hold either stomp switch to engage tap tempo mode. Press and hold the alternate stomp switch for infinite repeat/hold. Each Preset bank gives you 2 delays settings for a total of 8 user-storable effects!
LET’S DANCE
Use the Rhythm control to select between different echoes like HALO, Analog, Tape, Quarter and Dotted Eighth.
The perfect addition to any pedal patron to get their creativity flowing. Keeley knocked it out of the park with this one. If you enjoy the Halo, check out another Timmons collaboration with the Andy Timmons Full Range Overdrive or if you need some clarity, the Compressor Plus is a great choice.
