In the market for a new analog type delay ever since leaving my MF-104m which I've owned for 3-4 years. The rising cost factor and the fact that I barely used anything more than a little delay and a little modulation made me decide that money was better than the pedal. So I'm on the hunt for a new pedal. I do own 3 boss ps-2's which I often use for longer lo-fi delay type sound but it doesn't do that ambient wash as well as an analog pedal or analog modeling pedal.

I've tried the Boss DM-2w and I liked it quite a bit. Was gonna get that but then I went into a link indunced click-a-thon. Tonal Recall, Caroline Kilobyte, Belle Epoc, Capistan, and like a billion other ones. It's hard to say what I want especially since having an LFO would be nice to get some light modulation going that the DM-2w doesn't have even though I could send an LFO to the expression input prolly no?

What should I try, I have CME although Im not a terribly huge fan. I also have a couple other big shops that stock cool pedals. Lemme know what worth trying out with my limited time!

Tonal Recall may be too feature laden? I don't know. It's awesome in all the right ways but simultaneously sort of overwhelming looking.

Unrelated. CME is a cool shop. Can imagine that it has potential to be NEXT LEVEL DOUCHE but it looks fucking cool in there and there is gear galore. At a minimum you can probably go test out a bunch of shit that we all love/talk about here.

Oh.

You could try the Ibanez Echo Shifter -- that pseudo Moog.

I'm drawing a blank on other analog delays with mod right now. I was thinking about EQD Disaster Transport but that's digital emulating analog. It does sound great though.

Hrm.

80tape In Limbo II -- shit gets lots of love.

walrus audio bellwether could be worth taking a look at as well. modulation is on a toggle though.

effects database was helpful - may be worth poking your head around there.

Does it have to be analog? Check out the Mattoverse warble swell delay.

Dude it sounds like you need a Fairfield Meet Maude. Amazing analog delay, warm and luscious with a random modulation section and a compressor in the delay line so that you can play around heaps at the edge of oscillation.

Here's a demo from ya pals at CME:

I sold my EL Capistan for one and never looked back

shit, i hadn't even heard of mattoverse, some cool stuff...

Disclaimer: It doesn't have to be analog just sound washy or whatever that likes to be wishy washy and all that

Ill look at that database and hope it doesn't overwhelm me, I used to have an echo shifter years ago but that thing broke so fast. I sent it back to them and got a refund. Never wanted to deal with that again. Either way I will look at the disaster transport, I thought that thing was discountinued tho? I never heard of that 80tape. Ill take a look at it also.

CME is cool because it has a lot of stuff but overtime and especially once they moved to the big space, felt more faceless. Plus if you dont know the guys they can be a bit too rockstar for the customers who aren't doing something special. I know some of the guys personally and they are nice enough but they still talk a lot of shit. I generally go to this place Rock N Roll vintage more often. It has a similar amount of cool shit, great synth (synth city as they call it) section, will wheel and deal a bit more liberally, and over just that the guys are still in this stratosphere as far their ego go.

But thats just me tho tho

edit: the limbo sounds way dope and not too expensive

Ill check that out I think they have stock at cme. it seems nice and simple

+1 for Maude!
You might also wanna check the delays from Hungry Robot (see JustNick's videos).
And speaking of delay+mod, echo dream 2 is fantastic....

DMB Lunar Echo

I always mean to check out Maude, but I think I was put off cos I read a few people saying either you just couldn't hear it live cos it was too murky or the mod was too extreme and making shit sound out of tune.

The Maude's vibrato makes shit sound out of tune in a good way, tho! That's on the extreme side. You can switch it down on notch for a more standard swirl.

Murky is an accurate description of the actual delay sound. I would not get the Maude if I was wanting a standard DMM-style analog delay. I actually don't think of or use the Maude as a delay. It's like a little cloud generator/atmospheric pulsating pad machine with vibrato.

Meet Maude could be awesome for you. Also check out the Hungry Robot Wash
