Cusack Music has shown the Rebound, a multi-program delay pedal, as new at NAMM, Delicious Audio reported on January 28, 2024¹. The maker lists it at $260.00².

The Rebound is a delay pedal with eight stand-alone delay programs, an expression pedal input, tap tempo, dedicated Left and Right outputs, Brake controls and a hold feature the maker calls Float². Cusack says the preset switching system lets players cycle through banks hands free². The programs are MOD (analog), Tape, Digi-Pong, Dual, Reverse, Ducking, Pitch and Space². The middle footswitch sets delay time when tapped and engages Float when pressed longer, freezing the delay feedback to hold a passage². Holding the left bypass switch engages Brake Down, which ramps the delay time downward; holding the right bypass switch engages Brake Up². A tap division switch selects quarter note, eighth note or dotted eighth note delay².

The maker's descriptions of the programs include a warm analog delay with modulation from smooth chorus to vibrato, a tape delay with a controllable age/tone control, a ping-pong delay for stereo use, a dual delay with two independent delay times, a reverse delay with pitch control over the repeats, a ducking delay, a dedicated pitch delay and a filtered delay called Space².

Specifications from the maker²:

Delicious Audio describes the pedal as having a mono input and a true stereo output, and a true bypass switch¹. Cusack's own page lists buffered bypass². Delicious Audio also describes the Space program as adding a filter and a reverb to the repeats¹; Cusack describes Space as a filtered delay².
