Product Overview
About the First Generation YELLOW FALL
Looking back to 2014, the first-generation Yellow Fall delay pedal made its debut as Donner's first-ever pedal, marking a milestone in the brand's history. With its simple and straightforward operation, excellent product quality, and warm analog tone, it became one of the best-selling mini-series pedals in Donner's history.
Notably, in early 2024, Donner collaborated with Third Man Hardware, to launch the impressive co-branded pedal "Triple Threat," which combines ECHO, PHASER, and DISTORTION effects. The "ECHO" effect in this pedal was modeled after the classic Yellow Fall. This further highlights the core position and unique value of Yellow Fall in Donner's product lineup and demonstrates its high recognition in the professional field.
A Promising Upgrade - the YELLOW FALL II
The Yellow Fall II is an innovative effects pedal and a promising upgrade to its predecessor, integrating delay and reverb functionalities, meticulously designed by Donner. Equipped with a high-performance Digital Signal Processor (DSP), it accurately reproduces six classic dual-time-domain spatial effects. The unique 3x3 effect matrix design provides musicians with a wide range of sound combinations, catering to diverse musical styles. From delicate echo ripples to grand hall reverberations, the Yellow Fall II excels in performances, recordings, and creative processes.
