Black Fountain

The Black Fountain recreates the distinctive voice of oil-can delay units. The original oil-can design used rotating drums in oil to create delay, producing a unique, dark, and somewhat lo-fi echo character.

The Black Fountain captures that distinctive sound in reliable pedal form. The repeats have a dark, dripping quality unlike tape or digital delays. Modulation options add movement and warble to the echoes.

Time, feedback, and modulation controls shape the delay character. The oil-can emulation provides sounds unavailable from other delay types. The effect has become an OBNE signature.

The pedal that helped establish OBNE's reputation.
