Shortish Analogish Delay

sirvill · Post by **sirvill** » Fri Jun 05, 2015 1:08 pm

Rejigged my pedal board recently and I have room for at least 3 new toys

Been thinking for a while about getting an analogy, shorter delay to pair with my DE-7.

Any recommendations?

Been doing a bit of research and all roads seem to lead to the MXR Carbon Copy at the moment but I wanna hear what everyone else uses too.

Tech21's Boost DLA is versatile, you can change tone and add "flutter" (modulation). A bonus is that Tech21 has terrible resale - good for buyers. Also the boost is quite good if you want to use it for something else later.

Carbon Copy...do it!
Don't overlook the ehx Memory Toy/Boy they are pretty good and often really cheap on the used market.
In fact that reminds me, the ehx #1 Delay is a really nice analog voiced delay as well. Worth a go if you find one cheap.

I found this one that didn't sell at $130 http://www.trademe.co.nz/music-instrume ... 357259.htm

I had totally overlooked those. The plot thickens.

the artec analog delay is superb.

Carbon Copy / DM-2 (DM-2W) / MI Effects Lo-Fi (Ryan @ Ampshop has these)

Oh yes - the DM-2 is good, but is actual analog and a bit pricier.

Carbon Copy. Good value. Plenty of second hand ones on TradeMe. Easy to use. Reliable. No contest.

That's what I was hoping too, but there are none at the moment - will keep my eyes peeled for a good deal on all these options I think.

Mine would have to be pryed from my cold dead hands! Such a great pedal!

I'm wondering if the pedal market is starting to seep out to Facebook faster than other gear. Seems to be not a lot on TradeMe at the moment, at least not used.

Totally man, most of my recent sales have been through Facebook.
There are deals to be had on the old FB, and none on Trademe. I still list on both but Trademe only gets bites on gear that's fairly rare.
