Line 6 has announced an all-silver limited edition of the DL4 MkII Delay, a model that marks 25 years of the DL4 line, according to Gearnews¹. The report describes it as a limited edition of the ordinarily green-colored delay pedal, and says a keyring shaped like the pedal is included in the price¹.

The DL4 MkII is a second-generation version of the delay. Gearnews lists six presets accessible on the pedal and 122 more via MIDI, with four footswitches and six rotary knobs¹. The leftmost knob selects delay types, with a LEGACY button for older models, and the other controls are labeled TIME/SUBDIV, REPEATS, TWEAK, TWEEZ and MIX¹. The rear panel carries an expression pedal input, a mic input with level control, mono/stereo jack inputs and outputs, full-sized MIDI In/Out ports and a USB-C port¹. There is no battery compartment, unlike the 2022 version, which Gearnews says makes the pedal smaller¹. Onboard recording time is 240 seconds, expandable to several hours with an optional microSD card¹.

Gearnews gives the anniversary model at $222.00¹. The same report lists the standard green DL4 MkII at $229¹. When the DL4 MkII was announced in 2022, MusicRadar reported an MSRP of $419.99 and worldwide availability²; the two figures are not reconciled in either report.

The DL4 MkII has 30 delay types, 15 of them drawn from the HX family of amp and effects processors, MusicRadar reported at its 2022 launch². That report also listed 4-Switch and 1-Switch loopers with up to 240 seconds of record time each, MIDI preset selection up to 128, an XLR dynamic microphone input, heavy duty footswitches with colored halo rings, and switchable true, buffered or DSP bypass modes². Line 6's Eric Klein said at the time that a single button press turns the DL4 MkII into a DL4².
