The Rotosound Aftermath Analog Delay is an analog delay pedal: it repeats what you play, and each repeat darkens and decays rather than repeating identically. Guitar Pedal X, covering the reissue, described it as a "Great sounding Analog Delay - where each repeat has that trademark analogue degradation / decay"1. It sits in Rotosound's reissued range of vintage pedals, alongside the related Rotosound RAM1 Aftermath and Rotosound The Aftermath, and belongs to the wider family of delay pedals.
Controls
The pedal keeps to a simple three-knob layout1:
| Control | What it does |
|---|---|
| Depth | Sets the level of the delayed signal |

Questions
What kind of delay is the Rotosound Aftermath?
It is an analog delay. Guitar Pedal X described it as a great sounding analog delay where each repeat has that trademark analog degradation and decay, meaning successive repeats darken and lose definition as they fade rather than repeating identically. It is controlled with Depth, Rate and Feedback knobs and was reissued at £195.
When was the Rotosound Aftermath reissued?
Rotosound brought back its series of seven boutique effects pedals, hand-built by Dave Cherry, with availability to authorised dealers worldwide from March 2025. The Aftermath Analog Delay was priced at £195 in that reissue, alongside the rest of the range.
