The Red Witch Titan is a delay pedal from [Red Witch Pedals] that puts three separate delay engines in a single enclosure. Each engine offers up to 1200 milliseconds of delay time, and a switch lets you run the three in series or in parallel, which is what gives the pedal its range: Red Witch describes it as covering everything from simple repeats to "gorgeous, intricate cathedral like reverberations"1. It belongs to the broader family of delay pedals, but the triple-engine layout sets it apart from a conventional single-delay stompbox.
Three delays in one pedal
The Titan's core idea is that its three delay units are completely independent, a point Red Witch's Ben Fulton and Joe Coffey made in a Premier Guitar demo video at Summer NAMM 2009, where the pedal was shown as brand new3. A switch selects whether the three engines feed each other in series or run side by side in parallel, and mixing the three changes the character of the repeats. Red Witch says the pedal is "Voiced for the ultimate analog styled sound," using a classic analog compander alongside its more contemporary delay engines to recreate an analog-flavored delay13.
Pedal of the Day's 2015 review by Mike B described how the three sections interact in practice: "when you dial these knobs back, you venture into pseudo-reverb territory, and can get real ambient when mixing the three"2. The reviewer called it "one of the funnest and most creative delays around"2.
Controls
| Control | What it does |
|---|---|
| Delay Time (x3) | Sets each engine's delay time; Pedal of the Day notes the controls max out at 800 ms2 |
| Feedback (x3) | Adjusts the repeated delay signal, from short repeats to self-oscillation2 |
| Series/parallel switch | Selects whether the three delay engines run in series or parallel1 |
Power, size and availability
The Titan runs on a DC 9 volt wall wart only, with no battery option, and draws 146 mA1. That current draw is high enough that a battery or a shared daisy-chain supply is not a practical option, so plan for a dedicated adapter. The enclosure measures 118 mm x 38 mm x 94 mm and weighs 382 grams1. As of 26 October 2026, Red Witch lists the pedal as Sold Out at a list price of 190 USD1.
The Titan Delay is listed as Sold Out on Red Witch's product page as of 26 October 20261.
What reviewers said
Pedal of the Day's review was strongly positive, with the reviewer writing that Red Witch Pedals "have always been able to create very articulate and impressive pedals" and calling the Titan "one of the coolest delays we here at Pedal of the Day have ever come across"2. Premier Guitar's Summer NAMM 2009 coverage introduced it as "the brand new Titan delay" and highlighted the three completely independent delay units and the analog compander design3.
Red Witch's product page also notes that the Titan "can be found being used by Billy Corgan (Smashing Pumpkins)"1.

Questions
Does the Red Witch Titan Delay take a battery?
No. Red Witch specifies a DC 9 volt wall wart only, with no battery option. The pedal draws 146 mA, which is well beyond what a battery or a shared daisy-chain supply would comfortably deliver, so a dedicated 9 volt DC adapter is the practical way to power it.
Is the Red Witch Titan true bypass?
Yes. Red Witch lists the Titan Delay as true bypass on its product page, so the pedal passes your guitar's signal untouched when switched off.
How long is each delay on the Red Witch Titan?
Each of the three delay engines offers up to 1200 milliseconds of delay time according to Red Witch. Pedal of the Day's review notes that the Delay Time controls max out at 800 ms in practice, so the two sources give different figures for maximum delay time.
Is the Red Witch Titan analog or digital?
Red Witch voices the Titan for an analog-style sound, pairing a classic analog compander circuit with more contemporary delay engines. In a 2009 Premier Guitar demo video, the company described using the classic analog delay compounder to recreate an analog-flavored delay.
Who uses the Red Witch Titan?
Red Witch's product page states that the Titan Delay can be found being used by Billy Corgan of the Smashing Pumpkins.
How big is the Red Witch Titan Delay?
Red Witch lists the Titan Delay at 118 mm x 38 mm x 94 mm and a weight of 382 grams, so it is a slim, tall enclosure rather than a wide one.
