What's the difference between digital and analog delay? Here's a simple comparison between the Boss DD7 digital delay pedal and the MXR Carbon Copy analog delay pedal

Most multi-mode digital delays have an analog setting. Idk about the DD7, but my DD8 has it. The sound is pretty convincing, though you obviously don't have control over stuff like modulation, which is why I still have my Deluxe Memory Boy.

This is the best demonstration of digital/analog delay sound differences on entire youtube. For crunch guitar it is definitely digital. Analog works interesting but makes a lot of unpleasant changes in tails. Both are good for different situations. I would say with a bit simplifying: analog for clean "oldschool" sounding guitar (we get interesting sound), digital - for the rest.

I have owned the DD-7 for quite a few years now but never really played around too much with it. It’s now back on my board. I mainly use it on the analog setting. I have always hankered after a true analog pedal and have always admired the MXR Carbon copy. I once purchased a really expensive high end Strymon but after a few days use sent it back. I figured that the DD-7 already gave me everything I needed from a delay. It’s also robust, has tap tempo and a looper option.

I kinda wish the carbon copy had a knob to let you control how dark or bright the delays are. The analog degradation effect is cool but i wish the first couple repeats had a bit more high end. Though I definitely prefer the carbon copy to the analog mode of the DD7, i still prefer the DD7 just cuz you get more of the transient response to get some nice choppy effects.

To my hears the carbon copy (analog) has a more warmer sound like you said and makes it sound more natural while the boss pedal has a brighter and more intense tone. I think the boss pedal wouldbe better if you want to really hear your delays and have them last long and clear while the carbon copy creates this very smooth background with the sounds. I will probably get both eventually but I might get the carbon first. I want to make very ambient music and when I use delay I don't like having my delays get in the way if I continue to play so with the carbon copy my delays will blend into a nice natural background. Stack that with some reverb and that will be nice! I like delay but it has to be somewhat subtle for my tastes. Thanks for the video! Both are great pedals. Question for you: I noticed you have the mono shimmer pedal. I was thinking about getting a reverb and a dedicated shimmer/second verb pedal. How are you liking the mono shimmer pedal? And what overdrive pedal did you use?
@petemalins8 жыл бұрын
+AndroxineVortex thanks for the comments. Yeah, you're right - the carbon copy sits nicely behind what you're playing and doesn't get in the way. It is good for ambient stuff. For ambient guitar I actually use both DD7 & Carbon copy and reverb, to get a richer sound. Bear in mind, though, that the Carbon Copy has a shorter delay time, since it's analog - and there's no tap tempo, so you have to set in manually. Whereas the DD7 has much longer delay times and tap tempo, which is good for dotted eighth delays in a band situation. As for the NEUNABER SERAPHIM reverb pedal, I love it! Beautiful sounding reverb and I love the shimmer too for ambient stuff. And the great thing is that you can turn the shimmer on or off on the fly just by depressing the switch. I posted some ambient videos on my KZbin channel using the Seraphim if you want to check them out

@michaelinglis85165 жыл бұрын
True but that's just the delay intervals. With analog delay you don't have much use to space them out much further. With digital the delays repeat more accurately so you can space them longer. With that said, I have a CC that I've used for years and i do love it, but I would certainly like a digital delay as well for more precise delays when I'm playing prog. metal etc. on my 7 string. Like the beginning of after the burials song Neo Seoul(although I think that's a 9 nine string). I love that digital delay sound. I'm more a late 80s early 90s style player but I still play a lot of more modern music cause the skill level has been raised so much that I want to stay on my toes lol.

I have both. I usually use the analog and reverse settings on the DD-7 though. The analog is based on the Boss DM-2, so that in conjunction with the CC is a great pairing to my ears.

Similar to this set up but my overall tone and settings are very different, which goes to show that effects can be used in quite different ways. Thanks for this video!

The Digital Delay will do Crystal Clear & Pristine Repeats ( which will be much more Audible & Pronounced ). Ideally, it is nice to have a Delay Pedal that does Both-well, like the Boss DD-500 or Timeline or Timefactor ( and adjust tone, repeats & effect level - to taste ). Nice Demo though. Well-done.

@@carnmarth334 Possibly. There are a few languages still in use on the African continent that do not have a word for the color blue. If you show those people a color chart they have a very hard time telling the difference between green and blue because without a word, their brain doesn't distinguish the difference. It is the same with wives. See, they don't have words for our gear therefore they can't see any of it.
