MXR Carbon Copy Analog Delay

The MXR Carbon Copy Analog Delay - Warm, Vintage Delay Tones with Modern Versatility

Classic Analog Delay with Bucket Brigade Warmth

The MXR Carbon Copy Analog Delay delivers rich, warm delay tones using old-school bucket brigade technology. With up to 600ms of delay time, this pedal is perfect for everything from short, crisp slapback echoes to expansive, ambient delays reminiscent of classic Gilmour-esque soundscapes. Its completely analog audio path ensures a lush, organic tone that digital delays simply can't replicate.

Simple and Intuitive Controls

The Carbon Copy Analog Delay features a straightforward three-knob layout for effortless control:

• Delay: Adjusts delay time, from quick repeats to long echoes.
• Mix: Blends the dry and wet signals to achieve the perfect balance.
• Regen: Controls the number of delay repeats, from subtle echoes to runaway feedback.

Optional Modulation for Tape-Like Texture

For added depth and vintage character, the Carbon Copy includes an optional modulation feature that mimics the subtle pitch variation of classic tape delays. Two internal trim pots allow you to fine-tune the modulation's width and rate, offering a fully customizable delay texture to suit your playing style.

True Bypass for Pure Signal Integrity

The Carbon Copy is equipped with true hardwire bypass, ensuring that your guitar's natural tone remains uncolored when the pedal is disengaged. This makes it a seamless addition to any signal chain, whether you're on stage or in the studio.

Rugged, Compact Design

Housed in MXR's classic, road-ready enclosure, the Carbon Copy Analog Delay is built to withstand the demands of touring musicians. Its compact size ensures it fits effortlessly on any pedalboard, delivering legendary tone in a small, reliable package.
