Keeley Electronics New HALO Core Andy Timmons Effect Pedal
Andy Timmons’ mysterious sounding “Halo” effect is a modulated dual echo sound that has long been kept a secret by the tone wizard himself. Andy spent decades combining and crafting the sounds you can now get from the HALO Core.
Notes dance rhythmically, almost creating a reverb diffusion. Those notes are held together with tape-style effects like modulation, saturation and compression. The results are stunning.
Discover the latest from Keeley Electronics: the HALO Core, a streamlined version of our top-selling HALO Andy Timmons Dual Echo. The HALO Core has three modes: Andy’s iconic ‘HALO’ sound, Quarter Note, and now Dotted Eighth.

- True Stereo Input and Output: Enjoy immersive sound quality with true stereo capabilities.

A Match Made in Heaven
The collaboration of Andy Timmons, “Master Guitar Player & Delay Wizard”, and Robert Keeley, Godfather of boutique stompbox effects, have collaborated to produce a tool allowing players to master their musical craft.
Musings from Andy Timmons:
I’m thrilled that the Halo Core has “struck a chord” with so many folks! This new version has a third mode with the “dotted eighth” setting which for me is the ultimate division for creating great sounding tap tempo textures. Robert Keeley and his incredible team continually strive to make better and better quality pedals and this Halo Core is the best sounding Halo yet! – Andy Timmons
A song from Robert Keeley:
“Yesterday… My Halo’s Tap Tempo seemed so far away. Now it looks as if HALO Core’s here to stay. I believe you’ll love the intricate modulation sway.”

A breath of fresh air to have such an easy to dial, great sounding pedal! They nailed it with the Core. I’d trust Andy’s taste and knowledge any day, and team Keeley executed this vision perfectly! Still exploring with synths and stereo guitar set ups, but have been in heaven in mono for the most part. Set it to Halo mode and forget about it! Get lost in delay!

I’m a delay addict and it takes a lot for me to love a new delay! This is definitely my new favorite! Immediate addition to my main board and kicked my old stand by off. Phenomenal and simple to use!

I am having to re-think everything now! I just replaced the HALO, HYDRA, and ECCOS on my synth board (I run a Dave Smith Mopho through it) with a ROTARY, HALO Core, and ZOMA. To simplify line checks, I always play guitar through pedalboard reconfigurations into a clean amp. My gawd was this set up glorious! I couldn’t be happier with my synth board now. So much clarity, precision, and TONE – plus, ease of use! These pedals are so easy to dial in. Remarkable work, once again, Robert & crew! Now I am eyeing my guitar and Theremin boards…

I am SOOOO glad this went back in to production. I almost need three to do everything I want with it. Between the newer dotted 8th and that classic Halo setting this guy is an echo machine. Get lost in space, or in an “empty room”. This is the perfect pedal for delay junkies and beginners alike.
