Mark Holcomb Signature Dark Sun Digital Delay and Reverb Pedal by Seymour Duncan

As a key member of Periphery, Mark Holcomb is renowned for his intricate riffs and soaring leads, as well as his use of atmospheric and ambient guitar textures. Seymour Duncan’s Dark Sun pedal was designed to meet Mark’s expectations, merging his favorite sounds from the Andromeda Dynamic Delay and Silver Lake Dynamic Reverb. This advanced pedal seamlessly integrates a warm digital delay with a lush Hall reverb, offering flexible routing configurations that cater to a wide range of musical styles. Mark Holcomb’s signature pedal allows for detailed EQ shaping, saturation, and modulation, as well as Dynamic Expression control to adjust the effect mix based on playing dynamics.The routing control, a 4-position switch designed by Seymour Duncan’s engineers, lets you change the effects order on the fly, assigning them to either the left or right channel for versatile stereo or mono operation. This allows for dramatic sound variations, from new reverberations with each delay repeat to a more dramatic repeat of the reverb trail. With features like filters, gain, and modulation applied to the wet signal, you can totally reshape the effect’s character – whether you want to soften the sound with the Low Pass Filter, reduce low-end repeats with the High Pass Filter, or add gain for lo-fi or distorted effects.The modulation section can be applied to the delay, reverb, or both, while Dynamic Expression automatically adjusts the effect mix based on your playing intensity. Dark Sun offers four tap divisions – quarter notes, dotted eighths, eighths, and triplets – with tempo setting options via tap footswitch, Time control, or MIDI, and time display in milliseconds or beats per minute. With full MIDI capability and a micro-USB port for firmware updates and preset management, this pedal is designed for modern musicians. Like all Seymour Duncan pedals, Dark Sun is designed, built, and true-bypass switched in the USA.
