CP-41 Ghost Rain Echo Delay Guitar Effect Pedal True Bypass

This is a great pedal! I was looking at some higher priced delay pedals but figured I would give this a try and it does exactly what I was looking for. I wanted something that gave me a little texture to my clean and dirty tones and also the ability to dial in some ambient stuff. There are a ton of tonal possibilities with this. Plus it looks cool!

It sounds like old school tape echo, with plenty of control. Great money value.

I got this pedal for demo and review purposes on my gear page on a segment called "tone on a budget: cheap pedal edition". I ordered this thinking it would be a mess. Yeah I was wrong. Way wrong. This pedal is awesome! On first off its in no way a reverb pedal. It fails miserably in that regards but it is a stellar echo and delay pedal. If you're wanting like a strymon type reverb delay then you won't like this pedal (but you would fall in love with their snake bite reverb pedal! It's so good!!!). The echo and delay on this pedal has like an underlying lo-fi signal decay the further you dial in knobs. It's actually really really cool sounding if you're wanting to get into ambient territory. The main signal running through holds it's original integrity but the echo/delay underneath begins decaying with each repeat cycle so hence it really does sound like "ghost rain" although I'm sure a better name would go a long ways lol. This pedal has very solid delay up to a full second I believe. I would give this pedal five stars but it seems to lose sound clarity when used with a 9v battery and the only way to use a battery is with this little dongle they include that plugs into the adaptor port. It's minimal but tone purists would absolutely lose their pretentious minds over it. Me personally I think it sounds really cool and would make a cool under layer to a song verse. If I could suggest anything to Caline about this pedal out would be to add an expression pedal Jack and tie onto the time or decay pot. Rapidly ramping up those values sounds awesome! It's almost like a timing based whammy effect. Expression pedal add on functionality would really transform this pedal into something unique. So far I've tried out 3 Caline pedals for my gear page and all 3 were really great with no issues. I've actually kept them all on my Pedalboard because I've been so impressed with them. Especially the snake bite reverb. That pedal holds it's own against my Helix and big sky. I highly highly suggest checking it out. As for the ghost rain, if you find yourself in need of a solid echo and delay pedal try this out! I think you'll really dig it! It's definitely a bit different but in a really cool way. If you're into pedal modding add an expression pedal Jack, there's enough room in the casing, and tap onto the third knob/pot. If you're really talented at modding then add a selector and tap onto the middle knob as well for a really cool decaying repeat effect

Just tested this pedal. Ran it after my Overdrive and before sonicake matribox 1 modeler pedal. It doesn't have reverb but I like the delay control. From the speed of the delay. The timing. How frequent echos and the crazy feedback that almost blew my katana mini amp speaker. I caught it in time. I honestly got it for the price and artwork. Mainly the artwork. The button is kind of hard to press with your foot, but then it's a stomp box

I think I only spent between $20-$30 when it was on sale a year ago. But, wow! I have over 160 different pedals. And this one is actually really good! I like the Delay sounds I get from it. Heads up, though. It is NOT Reverb Delay. Ita just delay. I have no idea why they called it that. Anyways, I like using it for Dead Kennedys sounding stuff

Honestly I loved this pedal. I returned mine but I wish I hadn’t. At the time I didn’t understand how to work it and I had a small clone for chorus so I didn’t get it mentally at all. I since have had dreams about this pedal and a few other caline pedals. They are great and I use the “Enchanted Overdrive” every single day. Caline if you see this please send me a ghost rain, and compressor lol

I'm fairly new to the pedal board life but I have already gone through several delays. My first Delay pedal was the behringer vintage delay (which I HIGHLY recommend), then moved onto a Dan-Echo, and now am using this. I gave the Behringer to a friend who was just starting out with pedals and now I want it back, but may just buy another (do not want to be THAT guy asking for gifts back), and I love the Dan-echo but it is a little large and visually does not match my other pedals much. So I tried this Caline pedal. My buddy has the Caline Shark Bite Reverb and I was very impressed with the build, so I decided to take my shot at this pedal. This Pedal is also a bit larger than your average, but it's visually appealing. Review: It has simple delay controls and creates a lofi style atmosphere. The control knobs are sensitive and the control is pretty great. You can dial in a variety of speeds-- however it just misses the mark of being an actual reverb. The slower delay speed creates an ambiance that is very SIMILAR to a reverb sound-- while not ACTUALLY being a reverb. SO I can see what they named it this. I give it 4 stars because it does the thing. It delays. But it does not do the other thing--which is reverb. Overall I do recommend just just slightly over the Behringer Vintage Delay. They are very similarly priced-- but I would probably give this one a slight edge because of the build and design. IT HAS SOME SERIOUS CHARACTER. The Behringer SOUNDS amazing, I truly love it, but it's overall appearance and build is simplistic. It feels cheap, while the Caline also being a budget pedal-- has a higher quality feel to it.

I found the Caline CP -41 about totally useless. Maybe I just got a defective one. I watched a number of YouTube reviews on it, it sounded awesome. As you can see on my board, I have become a Caline fan, the Americana is awesome. I just took the CP-41 to return to Amazon. Hopefully for people thinking about buying the Ghost Rain, I just got a defective one. Very disappointed!

Used sparingly over a few months. Stopped working. I have to unplug everything and plug it back in to get it to work briefly again. The battery is external and connected by a small black wire. Why?!

Es un pedal de delay analógico, y como tal es excelente, pero no es un reverb como lo dice el gráfico, aunque manipulando los controles de feedback y mix, puede dar ese efecto de reverb, pero eso se puede hacer con cualquier otro delay. La construcción e general es muy buena, la sensasión de los controles y el cuerpo metalico es muy bueno, lamentablemente no es igual con el boton de encendido que se siente de mala calidad, un poco duro y el crank al activarse es fuerte, se nota que en este componente si ahorraron dinero. En general un delay analógico muy recomendable, por su precio posiblemente de lo mejor en el mercado, llego a tiempo y bien protegido y los gráficos son muy bonitos.
