Line 6 DL4 MkII Delay Modeler

As an effects unit, the original Line 6 DL4 was something of a best kept secret for fans of delay. Its intuitive interface and wide spectrum of delay tones to explore always made it an exciting time to get time-warped. Many years pass and Line 6 releases the device you see before you, the first follow-up to the original DL4.

The Line 6 DL4 MkII builds upon its predecessor with expanded functionality and sounds. With sixteen onboard delay modes added to the original DL4’s base fourteen, the first DL4 is still well intact in this new version. Newcomers to the DL4 experience will have not missed a thing from the previous version.

On top of the overall thirty total delay modes, the DL4’s built-in looping function gets its own time in the spotlight with up to 240 seconds of looping time available. Its four footswitches are sturdy and responsive to build enormous looping compositions with half time and reverse effects. The looper can be tinkered on the fly or left on its own to provide your perfect backing track.

In/out connections of the MkII provide a wide range of delay and looping possibilities. A new XLR mic output gives power to vocalists, MIDI keys into the studio experimenter’s setup, and microSD card connectivity greatly expands the internal looping memory of the MkII to several hours. The MkII is incredibly useful for a wide range of practice, performance, and experimentation scenarios.

For players who simply couldn’t get enough of the original green unit’s delay and looping magic, Line 6 invites the novice and experienced to take part in a revival of an unsung modern-day classic.
