M169 Carbon Copy Analog Delay : My favourite delay - imperfectly perfect

3 years ago

This is the second time I bought this pedal, having sold it once. I won't sell it again. I thought I could get by with a Boss DD7 which has a classic analogue setting, but this MXR simply does it better.

It's hard to tell exactly why (maybe the modulation, maybe the slightly less "perfect" (i.e. more natural, less "digital" delay) but it is imperfectly perfect.

And of course being MXR it's extremely good quality with delightfully smooth controls and a silent (in the chain) switch. Highly recommended.
