The Aquanaut - Analog Soul, Digital Depth
When I started building the Aquanaut I wasn’t trying to reinvent delay, I just wanted my favorite qualities in one box. I've always been drawn to delays with that rich, slightly submerged warmth, but also loved units that offered crystal-clear presence and articulation. Each camp had something I couldn't live without. But switching between them, or wishing one had just a bit more of what the other offered, pushed me to do something about it.
The Aquanaut is my answer to that dilemma. It’s a hybrid delay designed to ride the line between warm and clear, vintage and modern. The repeats sit just a touch behind your dry signal. Never overpowering, never sterile. They bloom with a subtle warmth, but stay articulate enough to cut through a live mix. And yes, I made sure it goes up to 600ms, because that sweet spot in delay time matters.
Inside, the circuit is tuned by ear. Hours of tweaking values and listening through different amps, guitars, and rigs until it felt right. No digital modeling. No presets. Just honest analog-voiced delay that plays well with dirt and modulation alike.
If you’re looking for a delay that doesn’t fight your tone, but joins it...the Aquanaut is here to dive in.

USER REVIEWS
- "As a pro player recording and performing artist, I call ‘em like I hear ‘em…Berserker Aquanaut delay pedal? Awesome! Sound? Subtle, pristine sonic glory. Concept? Unique in the stomp box sandbox, perfect blended alchemy of analog and digital tone. Build? Best of old-made-new in one virtuoso package. Applause!"
- "Absolutely brilliant delay pedal. My new favorite. Fast shipping, great seller!"
- "This looks as professional as any pedal that I've seen, really really well put together....I just think it's great."
- "I'm thoroughly enjoying this thing. I have it right alongside my Supa-Puss (which for its longer delay is a very different animal than the Aqua Puss, I know) and it sounds superb. And man, is the clock noise in a Carbon Copy pronounced when you A/B against your pedal. Also the attack/decay profile is so natural compared to the analog setting on the TC Flashback, which essentially puts a wool blanket over all the repeats from first to last."
