analog delay
analog delay
hello folks, anyone of you would recommend me a good analogue delay? I have 200 euros to invest in and really don't know what to buy.. there are so many colorful pedals out there... I was thinking of one of the Strymon or (no analogue) the Lexicon or the boss space echo....
thanks in advance.

Re: analog delay
Erm, all those mentioned are digital no?
If you want analog delay, then go for analog delay, otherwise you may as well do it in the box

Re: analog delay
Electro Harmonix - Memory Man,Memory Boy,actually EHX has 4-5 different versions of the same delay.
A cheap but quality alternative would be Behringer Vintage time machine which is a Memory Man clone for a much lower price.
Space Echno from Boss is nice too but digital.

Re: analog delay
mmm steve maybe I got it all wrong... but I tought Strymon were analog (el capistan) anyway what I am looking for is something I can tweak and turn so maybe not necessary analogue...
thanks breakz, I will check thise out.

Re: analog delay
don't rush a purchase. i strongly advise you keep a look out for one of these second hand.

Re: analog delay
That little space echo emu from Boss sounded pretty cool to me as well.

"The result is our hand crafted dTape™ technology. Utilizing a ridiculously powerful SHARC DSP, every drop of processing power is harnessed."
So it`s just a computer in a little box.
It is however, supposed to be quite nice.
Re: analog delay
Buy a memory man, or build your own DIY analog delay with 1+ seconds of delay.
Whatever you do, don't buy a piece of shit Behringer anything. The power supplies they use are absolute trash. It may sound great on day one, but over time it's gonna degrade into a pile of goo.

Re: analog delay
Heard good thing about the MXR carbon copy.
Re: analog delay
whatever you get just know that if it's not tape, an analog delay will most likely have a bucket bridge design so the wet signal is going to have some low pass filtering on it. if you're looking for a delay that's going to give you lush highs and a full wet signal look at the eventide timefactor or the strymon timeline.
Re: analog delay
ok thanks for the tips I am studying now what it's out there and will update u. thanks a lot again!

Re: analog delay
guys any feedback on that? http://www.moogmusic.com/products/mooge ... alog-delay
it look amazing but didn't remember that was so expensive :S

Re: analog delay
I wanted a true analog tape delay on a budget I would go for a Univox EC-80.

Re: analog delay
I am reading bad comments about the Univox EC-80 apparently is very fragile and it needs the tape to be replaced often etc... I am not that kind of a geek able to repair stuff I just spent 50 euros to replace a single knob on my mc-303 and I am sure it was a basic operation to do. eheheh
maybe I'll go with a little Memory Boy, it's cheap and seems nice

Re: analog delay
ok ppl, I bought a used Memory Boy and arrived three days ago. I had some problems at first because it arrived without the original power adapter... so I had to try three different power adapters I had with same voltage but different amperage until I found one with 1A that worked fine, with the others the pedal will switch on but didn't process the signal.
anyway the memory boy is nice, very limited I guess because the ms of the delay are not too many and the WET signal is lightly lower than the DRY one but it's ok, it has a DEPTH knob that modulate the pitch of the wet signal which is nice. it has a nice analogue feeling I guess meaning that the sound isa pretty dirty
the only thing I don't like is the FEEDBACK wich is kinda short even at the maximum lenght.
