Product Overview
The Keeley Caverns V2 is a dual-effect pedal combining high-quality delay and reverb effects, designed for guitarists seeking versatile time-based effects in a compact form factor. It features Keeley's analog-style tape delay with modulation options and offers Spring, Shimmer, or Modulated Reverb. The pedal includes a True-Bypass or Trails option for flexible signal routing.
This bundle also includes a 3-pack of MXR Patch Cables (6 inches / 15 cm). These cables are designed for connecting effects pedals on a pedalboard, featuring oxygen-free copper conductors and spiral shields for clear signal transmission, and flat, low-profile right-angle ends for efficient space utilization.

Postavljanje i veze
Proper setup ensures optimal performance and sound quality. Follow these steps to integrate your Keeley Caverns V2 pedal and MXR patch cables into your signal chain.
Keeley Caverns V2 Pedal Setup
- Napajanje: The Caverns V2 pedal requires a 9V DC center-negative power supply (not included) with a minimum of 75mA. Connect the power supply to the 9VDC input jack on the top of the pedal.
- Ulazni priključak: Connect your guitar or the output of a preceding effects pedal to the "IN" jack on the top of the Caverns V2 using a standard 1/4-inch instrument cable.
- Izlazna veza: Connect the "OUT" jack of the Caverns V2 to your amplifier's input or the input of the next effects pedal in your chain using a standard 1/4-inch instrument cable.
- True-Bypass/Trails Option: The Caverns V2 offers a switchable True-Bypass or Trails option. Refer to the pedal's specific instructions (often an internal dip switch or external toggle) for how to select this mode. Trails mode allows the delay and reverb to naturally decay after the effect is disengaged.
MXR Patch Cable Usage
- Povezivanje pedala: Use the MXR patch cables to connect the output of one effects pedal to the input of another. The right-angle connectors are ideal for minimizing space between pedals on a pedalboard.
- Upravljanje kablovima: Arrange cables neatly to prevent tangles and accidental disconnections. The flat profile of these cables assists in maintaining a tidy pedalboard.
