The CKK Electronic Space Station TTM Stereo Delay Reverb is a stereo delay pedal with reverb built in, made by CKK Electronic. Pedal of the Day, reviewing it in October 2020, described it as "essentially a delay pedal that you add reverb into," and found it "easily creates ethereal space effects and inspires creativity"1. It sits in the same family as the CKK Electronic Space Station Pro, a related pedal that offers digital delay, digital delay-verb and digital reverb modes2.

Controls

The TTM keeps its front panel fairly simple, with each knob doing a defined job1:

ControlWhat it does
Delay/TapDiv/Mod TypeAdjusts the overall delay time, chooses Quarter, Eighth, Dotted Eighth or Triplet note subdivisions, and flips between different Mod types1
FeedbackSets the delay feedback level1
BlendBlends the delayed signal1
ReverbControls the Reverb section; Pedal of the Day noted "that's all there is to that"1
Mod switchSelects Slow or Fast modulation, or turns it off completely1
Output ModeSelects Mono, Stereo or Thru1

"Feedback and Blend do their jobs as well," Pedal of the Day wrote of the delay controls1.

Tap tempo and the CTRL jack

The TTM has no onboard tap tempo switch. Instead, a CTRL input jack accepts an external switch, and using one lets you control Tap Tempo, shift the Bypass functionality, select the Bypass Type and select the Output Mode1. For a player who changes delay length mid-song, that external switch is the practical route to tapping in time.

Tap tempo, bypass selection and Output Mode selection all run through the CTRL jack with an external switch, not through the pedal's own footswitch.

Stereo operation and output modes

The pedal is stereo capable, and its Output Mode selector offers Mono, Stereo or Thru settings1. Stereo mode puts both channels to work on the delay and reverb, while Thru passes the signal onward, which is useful for feeding a second pedal or amplifier.

How it compares to the Space Station Pro

CKK's Space Station Pro covers similar ground with more depth. Its maker describes three space effects: "digital delay, digital delay-verb and digital reverb"2. The Pro's digital delay-verb module provides 2000ms of delay time, with the DELAY knob and REGEN knob adjusting delay time and feedback level respectively2. Its digital reverb module provides four parameters, PREDELAY, DAMPING, DECAY and MIX, and RockBoard's PedalPedia says the decay time "can last tens of seconds" for atmospheric music2. MusicRadar found that "dialled back, in reverb-only mode, it can create a subtle and warm effect, bringing colouration and space to your sound"3. The TTM, by contrast, is the simpler pedal: one Reverb knob rather than four reverb parameters, with the delay section carrying the detail.

What reviewers said

Pedal of the Day's verdict leaned on how much the pedal packs in: "it's full of knobs and options and hidden features…this thing will really expand your mind"1. For a player considering it, the picture that emerges is a compact stereo delay with reverb, subdivision choices, a modulation switch and remote control of its main functions through one jack.

Questions

Is the CKK Space Station TTM stereo?

Yes. Pedal of the Day describes it as a stereo delay reverb pedal, and it offers an Output Mode selector with Mono, Stereo or Thru settings. A CTRL input jack also lets an external switch select the Output Mode, so you can change how the pedal routes its signal without reaching for the pedal itself.

Does the CKK TTM have tap tempo?

It does, but not from the pedal's own footswitch. Tap tempo is controlled through the CTRL input jack using an external switch. That same jack can also shift the Bypass functionality, select the Bypass Type and select the Output Mode, so one switch covers several functions.

What does the CTRL jack do on the CKK Space Station TTM?

The CTRL input jack accepts an external switch. With one connected, Pedal of the Day reports it lets you control Tap Tempo, shift the Bypass functionality, select the Bypass Type and select the Output Mode. It is the pedal's main point of remote control.

What note subdivisions does the CKK TTM offer?

The Delay/TapDiv/Mod Type knob adjusts the overall delay time and chooses between Quarter, Eighth, Dotted Eighth or Triplet note subdivisions. The same knob also flips between different Mod types, so delay length, subdivision and modulation character are all set from one control.

What are the output modes on the CKK TTM?

The pedal offers three Output Modes: Mono, Stereo or Thru. Mono runs a single output, Stereo uses both channels for the pedal's stereo delay and reverb, and Thru passes the signal onward. The mode is selected on the pedal or via an external switch plugged into the CTRL jack.
