Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Memory Man Analog Delay / Chorus / Vibrato Pedal

Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Memory Man Analog Delay Pedal: Classic Analog Delay with Chorus and Vibrato
The Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Memory Man Analog Delay Pedal combines vintage analog delay with rich chorus and vibrato effects to provide a full spectrum of tonal possibilities. Known for its warm, organic sound, the Memory Man emulates the classic analog delay tones that digital pedals simply can’t match. With up to 550ms of delay time, it delivers a lush, spatial echo perfect for creating everything from subtle delays to dramatic, evolving soundscapes. The addition of chorus and vibrato effects further enhances the pedal’s versatility, making it an ideal choice for guitarists, keyboardists, and other musicians seeking to add analog warmth and modulation to their sound.

Classic Analog Delay for Warm, Organic Echoes
One of the defining features of the Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Memory Man is its analog delay circuit, which provides vibrant, tape-like echo with unmatched warmth. With up to 550ms of delay time, this pedal offers a wide range of delay effects, from short, slapback echoes to long, atmospheric repeats. Unlike digital delay pedals, the analog circuitry of the Memory Man creates a natural, organic sound that feels more alive and dynamic. Whether you're using it for subtle depth or to create cascading repeats, the Deluxe Memory Man gives you that classic, warm analog delay sound that many musicians crave.

Chorus and Vibrato Effects for Rich Modulation
In addition to its analog delay capabilities, the Deluxe Memory Man features built-in chorus and vibrato effects that can be added to the delay signal. The chorus effect adds a lush, spacious quality to the repeats, giving them a rich, shimmering texture. For a more pronounced effect, the vibrato setting introduces a pitch modulation that makes the delay signal fluctuate in a way that mimics a “doppler” shift, adding a haunting, organic feel to your tone. Whether you’re after a smooth, chorused delay or a more intense, vibrato-infused effect, the Memory Man gives you complete control over the modulation depth with its Chorus/Vibrato knob.

Precise Control Over Delay and Mix
The Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Memory Man features several intuitive controls that allow you to sculpt your sound with precision. The Blend knob lets you mix the dry signal with the delayed signal, with the center position offering an equal balance of both. The Delay control adjusts the time between the dry and delayed signals, giving you control over the delay’s length and the space between repeats. The Feedback control introduces delay repeats, with higher settings creating multiple echoes. When paired with a short delay time and high feedback, this setting can create a reverb-like effect that enhances your sound further.

Overload Protection and True Bypass Switching
To ensure that you don’t overdrive the circuit and lose tonal clarity, the Deluxe Memory Man features an Overload LED that blinks when the input signal is too loud. This lets you know when you’re pushing the pedal too hard, allowing you to adjust your playing or settings to avoid unwanted distortion. For those who prefer a clean, unaffected signal when the effect is not in use, the Memory Man also includes true bypass switching, which ensures that your sound remains pure and unaltered when the pedal is turned off. The bypass footswitch lets you easily toggle the effect on and off during performance, making the Memory Man a seamless part of your setup.
