MayFly Audio Systems released the My Evil Twin, a delay pedal with footswitchable pitch-shifting modulation, the company announced on June 28, 202212. The Ottawa-based firm, led by musician and electronics engineer Trevor May, launched in 20201.
The My Evil Twin offers up to one second of delay time, with repeats adjustable from one to infinite2. A tone control shapes the repeats, which MayFly describes as changing the overall delay "from a dark room to a bright room," and a mix knob sets the balance12. The modulation is controlled by speed and intensity knobs and, according to MayFly, ranges from a "subtle warble" to "full on-chaos"12.
"The secret sauce is the foot switchable modulation."
The pedal uses relay-based full bypass, which MayFly says is good for over a million stomps, and Fail Safe technology that automatically switches to bypass if the pedal loses power2. It is housed in a cast aluminum enclosure12. MayFly lists an MSRP of $229.002. All MayFly pedals are hand-built in Canada and carry a lifetime warranty2. The My Evil Twin joins the company's Sketchy Zebra phaser, Open Window overdrive, Dirty Window distortion and Bytown Boost1.
