1. What do people generally think of the EHX Memory Boy?

2. Has anyone used Control Voltage with the Exp. input?

Great delay. However, finding the used deluxe for a little bit more is where it's at.

Got the Deluxe Memory Boy, dig it, it's one of the cooler analog delays out there I think and it's got tap tempo but I have way too many delays.
I prefer it with the secondary function tone control full counter clock wise or only 1/4 up, it's more wide range and cloudy that way, sometimes in the store they have them setup differently and it changes the character quite a lot.

Somebody's looking to trade me a standard memory boy. I'm hoping that i can link up
the cv's from a few other things and get weird….
I may just go for it...

Deluxe Memory Boy is indeed really cool and an amazing unit for the price.
I don't know of any other pedal with all those features for <$200.

The exp. control works great too, I wish I can control more than 1 value simultaneously though.

I don't think that's gonna work.

Have fun!

Just sold one. I had it hooked up to my modular, CV and all. It was really, really nice and dubby.

I actually love it as a chorus and for weird sounds. I often think about getting it again just for that, but I'm about that stereo life now.

I too have the Deluxe version, I'm sure the standard Memory Boy is well worth having, especially if it's available for a good price.

I had one on the board for a while. Good delay.

Just realized that I had the little, tiny Memory Boy a couple of years ago. It was alright, sounded nice as far as I remember. Think I only sold it to try something else.

Memory Toy! That was the name! Might've sold it for weed. :facepalm:

The delay time on the Memory Boy will increase with temperature.
Or so, I've found anyway. I'd be playing a gig on a hot stage and would suddenly have another 200ms of delay time.
Lastly, this pedal is sweet but does have a sizeable volume boost when engaged.
