Is this a £30 Memory Man? MoVall Falling Star Modulated Delay

Electro Harmonix Memory Man is the go to modulated delay - The MoVall Falling Star does shoegaze modulated delay on a budget. Can it be as good though? We are taking a look at the MoVall Falling Star Modulated Delay today which isn't an exact copy but sure is inspired by the analogue delay tones of the EHX Deluxe Memory Man. We put this analog delay through it's paces today and unlock ever tone you could think of. Get settled in as we have a look at this superb effort by MoVall.

Great little piece of kit ..... Fun demo, thanks!

[@BudgetPedalChap]

Why thank you. It's a refreshing take on the modulated delay isn't it 👍

[@user-wv1ef2my2t]

This brand is sold here in the Czech Republic, I have not yet seen this effect in our offer. A great piece for the money. If it appears here, I will definitely buy it. Greetings Pavel CZ.👍👍👍

[@BudgetPedalChap]

It's got lots of character. Not your run of the mill delay for sure

[@JimVincent]

I love this pedal! I have it stacked with a Joyo Digital Delay and they just play so well together.

[@BudgetPedalChap]

Yeah, it's got such character. I was very pleased with it 👍

[@TheGuitarEffect]

Great demo. Does sound similar to what I believe a memory man sounds like… I’ve never tried one either!!

[@BudgetPedalChap]

The question in the thumbnail is a genuine question 🤣🤣 I haven't a clue and kinda hoped that people would let me know if it is or not. They are so expensive that I'll probably never find out too

[@wayneknazek7362]

Cool demo as usual! I just bought mine after watching it. Unbelievable pedal for $39! USD! Actually, $39.12 total.

[@BudgetPedalChap]

It's nice to know that it is roughly the same as it is in GBP. Let me know how you get on 👍

[@jfiery]

You demonstrate the best in any pedal. I think Ill stick to my Echooos though. Really enjoyed the playing this week.

[@BudgetPedalChap]

Bless you, kind sir. I'm intrigued as to what the echoos is ...

[@jfiery]

@@BudgetPedalChap it's a great digi delay my Mugig I'm sure you'd enjoy. They seem to be hard to find for some reason now. I have the blue version with a 3 way toggle but I know there's an even more rare silver and green one with 7-8 different types of delay that I'd love to get my hands on to try.

[@BudgetPedalChap]

@@jfiery I'll keep my eyes peeled for one 👍

[@ascw1991]

Just ordered one of these off reverb because of this demo. What a wild pedal lol

[@BudgetPedalChap]

It is indeed. Got such vibes for a really affordable pedal

[@martindale1680]

Same. £4 from Temu, can’t complain 😂 Probably take a few months to arrive though lol

[@BudgetPedalChap]

@@martindale1680 damn that's quite the saving 👍

[@martindale1680]

@@BudgetPedalChap Yeh! It was my first Temu purchase, so they give a massive discount. I had googled the pedal after watching this, found one for £30, then a few days later got a Temu advert saying New Customer Discount - £4.27 🤷🏻‍♂️ Yep, I’ll take it! 😁

[@martindale1680]

@@BudgetPedalChap it’s not quite what I hoped it would be. Delay is good, not really getting any noticeable modulation though. Speed knob doesn’t seem to do anything, and depth knob seems to just do the same as the time knob

[@rpm451]

I think it's more likely a Keeley Magnetic Echo clone...The controls are even set up the same way.

[@BudgetPedalChap]

Ooh, I don't know that one. I'll have to give it a check 👍

[@stevendavidson391]

I like that. Nice quirky delay

[@BudgetPedalChap]

That's exactly it, it's got quirks but also full of character 👍

[@TorgeirBerg]

Bought it from temu, its pretty wild, the threeway-switch is very weak, it dosent seem to have any firm position, but its manageable to some degree. For the price its great for the grainy sound.

[@BudgetPedalChap]

That's interesting. I didn't have any issues with the switch, but I could see for the price that the QC may not be as strict. It has got some interesting EHX style tones 👍

[@crock2434]

Don't know....but I do know the xvive echoman is right on par with the memory man and it's mini.....only thing is you have to find the sweet spot on the blend knob to not have so much volume loss....

[@BudgetPedalChap]

I think Xvive have stopped making pedals. Their golden brownie was apparently excellent but when I looked for one, they were all out of stock and I could not find anywhere that stocked any Xvive pedals. They look like they've moved into live audio stuff these days

[@simonbeckford]

I have the Xvive Echoman and I can vouch for it sounding just like a EHX Deluxe Memory Man, but a fraction of the size and half the price. Fantastic pedal, warm and full of character

[@bomdelux]

Yeah, I kinda dig that 👍

[@BudgetPedalChap]

Yeah, it's 30 quid and a bunch of fun

[@stipe5225]

Does anyone has a big volume boost when turning this pedal on? Bought one few weeks ago and while it sounds great with mod on, I send it back 'cause that boost was a dealbreaker for me.

[@BudgetPedalChap]

I didn't experience that. I got rid of my phase 90 for that exact reason too 👍

[@stipe5225]

@@BudgetPedalChap thanks, maybe my unit was flawed in some way. Well, I'll give it another shot ;)

[@affordaboard]

MoVall has been very quiet on what it’s based on. It sounds very Analog to me. Great demo as usual 🤘🏻

[@jcwoodstl]

I personally think it sounds digital AF. Digital trying to sound analog via algorithm. Even the oscillation sounds fake

[@affordaboard]

That’s your opinion and that’s absolutely fine 🤘🏻

[@BudgetPedalChap]

@@jcwoodstl you would expect it to be digital at this price. The quirks make me think it's analogue, but I wouldn't be totally surprised if it is digital because it's cheap as chips 👍

[@dogoffuzz]

It's like the Dr. J brand (Joyo) D-54 Shadow Echo. From the same Movall series, The Absolute Zero fuzz is like the Dr. J Planes Walker

[@BudgetPedalChap]

@@dogoffuzz I've seen those Dr J pedals about, never tried one though. I should get some in 👍

[@geekPlayground]

Great demo as always. This one or the Yellow Fall?

[@BudgetPedalChap]

The yellow fall is your bread and butter, this one is for something a bit fancy. Depends what you want it for really 👍

[@geekPlayground]

@@BudgetPedalChap Thank you for your reply. I am on the market for a budget delay pedal and with so many offers, it's difficult to decide. I definitely like the Yellow Fall and the levitate.

[@BudgetPedalChap]

@@geekPlaygroundyou're welcome, it is great chatting about pedals 😊 the Levitate is fantastic and gives you reverb as well. I think it'll be a budget board staple before long 👍

[@acadianflatpicker]

Seems similar a bit to the Donner Square Echo. Same kinda of deal but different take on it.

[@BudgetPedalChap]

Ooh I've not tried that one. I assume they're both kind of vaguely aiming at the memory man kind of sound. Great pedal for the cash 👍

[@acadianflatpicker]

​@@BudgetPedalChapMy pedal rig is for my Acoustic set up, since I run a Mustang III vers 2 as my electric rig. So acoustic I use a lot of mod stuff. Was thinking eventually adding this one or just a standard analog delay to my Square Echo. 20$ cheaper for a straight delay. 😂

[@BudgetPedalChap]

@@acadianflatpicker I could see the warmth of the modulated repeats working quite well with an acoustic 👍

[@JasonWharton82]

nay bad for £30, got a bit noisy at the end though. Still, some really usable tones on a budget.

[@BudgetPedalChap]

Absolutely, I think the noise is a bit of vintage character to it. It's a nice alternative to some basic delay pedals for sure

[@rosawirtanen8661]

Got dmm 2000 something big box and pico...but gonna sell it and got this and maybe that mini universe,.. Allthough cannot get that white noise setting? "lofi".. 😮🤔

[@BudgetPedalChap]

Best of luck on your tone chase 👍

[@monsterpopMusicFactory]

It's £61

[@BudgetPedalChap]

All Movall pedals are £30 here. This one is currently out of stock, but when they are in, it will be 30 quid too affordaboard.co.uk/browse-stock/ols/search?keywords=Movall&sortOption=descend_by_match

[@jcwoodstl]

Am I hearing something completely different than everyone else? lol

[@BudgetPedalChap]

😂😂😂 it would seem so. Can't be all winners eh?

[@fuckgoogle8661]

I haven’t tried it yet but someone told me this has an internal pot so you can dial this in basically. It’s on my to do list but thought you might want to know.

[@BudgetPedalChap]

Oooh, secret hidden goodies inside. Very cool 👍
