Andy Timmons' Signature in a Pedalboard Format
Resulting from the collaboration between Keeley Electronics and Andy Timmons, the HALO CORE condenses the iconic "Halo" echo concept beloved by melodic guitarists. It captures the spirit of studio and tape delays prized for their enveloping repeats and airy diffusion, while offering a compact and intuitive format designed for both stage and studio use.Who Is It For and What For?
Ideal for melodic rock, pop, indie, ambient, or worship guitarists, the HALO CORE excels in singing leads, textured arpeggios, and stereo soundscapes. Its ease of use suits both demanding beginners and professionals seeking an expressive, reliable delay that integrates effortlessly into mono or stereo rigs.Controls and Features That Matter on Stage
The three rhythmic modes cover the essentials of modern delay patterns, including the famous "Halo" diffusion for three-dimensional echoes. The Saturate control adds the organic flavor of tape echo, while the adjustable high-pass filter clarifies the low end to let the mix breathe. The Tap Tempo enables instant synchronization with the song's tempo, and the Infinite Hold function freezes the delay tail for creative transitions and pads. The tempo LED provides immediate rhythm reading, even on a dark stage.Sound
Transparent when needed, warm when pushing the Saturate, the HALO CORE delivers smooth, dense, and musical repeats. The "Halo" mode widens the stereo field and adds a silky dimension to leads, while the quarter note and dotted eighth note patterns provide a solid rhythmic foundation. The dynamics follow the playing style, from palm-muted attacks to legato phrases, with clear definition that doesn't mask the amp or other effects.Technical specifications
