Description
The Ibanez Layer Delayer is a revolutionary pedal that redefines the possibilities of delay effects. Unlike traditional tape echoes, this innovative device generates 16th notes and triplets delay signals, each with independent volume controls, allowing you to create intricate rhythmic patterns and sonic textures. The TONE and FILTER controls let you sculpt the timbre of your delay signal, from subtle warmth to aggressive distortion. Additionally, the FX loop expands your sonic palette by incorporating external effects into your delay chain. With its groundbreaking features and flexible routing options, the Layer Delayer empowers you to forge your own sonic identity and explore new sonic frontiers. Whether you're a guitarist, bassist, keyboardist, or producer, the Layer Delayer will add a unique dimension to your musical pursuits.
Delay Signal Volumes
The delay time is set to a quarter note, and the pedal generates corresponding 16th note and triplet delay signals. Each delay signal can be independently boosted up to 3dB.
Tone
This effect transitions between three distinct delay types: digital, analog, and tape echo, offering a rich and evolving sonic palette.
Filter
This effect emulates the classic low-pass ladder filter, a hallmark of Moog® synthesizers. High RESONANCE with adjustable CUTOFF frequency delivers the distinctive, edgy character of the Moog ladder filter. Zero RESONANCE provides a more standard low-pass filter response.
Tail Decay
The "Tail" feature allows the delayed signal to persist even after the effect is deactivated. This knob controls the feedback level of the tail, determining how long the delayed signal lingers. Setting the parameter to 0 provides true bypass behavior, instantly silencing the output when the effect is turned off. Conversely, setting the parameter to a high value, typically between 90 and 100, creates a long, sustained trail of the delayed signal, even after the effect has been bypassed.
Auto-panning
One of the primary advantages of stereo-out equipment is the panning feature. The Layer Delayer incorporates 8 distinct auto-panning modes, enabling the delayed signals to sweep dynamically across the stereo field. These modes include left-to-right, right-to-left, and pin-pong panning. Users can further customize the panning effect by selecting between wide and narrow sweep widths for each mode, and by adjusting the overall sweep speed.
MIDI
You can control all of the parameters in the Layer Delayer using MIDI controllers. It also supports MIDI clock message that synchronizes the delay time.

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
