MXR Carbon Copy Deluxe Analog Delay Guitar Effects Pedal

I had never used a bucket brigade based analog delay pedal before, but the Carbon Copy Deluxe is by far the best delay pedal I've ever used. The sound is smooth, the 'Deluxe' designation gets you a tap-tempo and non-4/4-time-signatures, there's a mod switch which distorts the delay trails, and a bright version of the delay circuit is a switch away too. This thing is amazing; it's the kitchen sink of delay pedals if you ask me. I'll give this pedal a glowing recommendation to anyone who will listen.

Cannot beat stomp boxes, it does take time to "dial" this particular unit in. Sounds are limitless with some patients and definitely watch some online videos to get its full potential. Built like a tank and after going "digital" for a few years to slim line my setup. line 6 helix, M13(that was actually very nice), I recently switched back because of disappointing experience.

I just bought this pedal for my 12 year old son and he loves it, it is easy to use and reliable on the sound he wants to hear. we've been using it with 9V battery and works properly

Well I'm in NZ and it was delivered so fast, cheaper to get it in America than where I live in New Zealand! Tried it at the end of my pedal board, it's even better than I thought it would be. Love the modulation chorus addition and the double length time compared to the single MXR carbon copy. Brilliant

Superb analog sound. Great tap tempo function. Easily select quarter note, eighth note, dotted eighth note (Edge anyone?) or sixteenth note delays (plus infinitely variable delay times up to max).

This delay LOOKS awesome. Super simple to use and I love the LED-based note subdivision display for tempo. Has a lot of features, including modulation. But it's missing trails/tails (echo repeats get cut off when you bypass). It's nice that it is true bypass, however it would be nice to have the option, perhaps with an internal switch, to allow the repeats to trail off after switching it off (making it buffered bypass in that mode, a functionality that other manufacturers have included). Additionally, it's subjective, but I found the wave-shape of the modulation LFO to be a bit "steep". (instead of a smooth sweep, it kind of pulses or throbs). Also,when turning the knobs, they hit spots of resistance, and then spots where they turn easily. Feels like plastic shafts on the pots, but I'm not sure. So it doesn't have a "premium feel" when turning the knobs. Lastly, my main gripe is that even with the bright switch engaged, the delay is still too dark for my tastes. I compare it to my Donner Yellow Fall (also an analog BBD delay) and the MXR has a much murkier, duller tone even with the bright switch on. HOWEVER, if you love the original or bright models of the Carbon Copy delay, you might really like adding tap tempo and modulation with an upgrade to this pedal. It's a good pedal if the features and tone match your needs.

It's like buying the Carbon Copy, Carbon Copy Bight, and being able to add modulation to them! love this thing!

Great device

I had one before, this one is more complex and better. Easy to use and great sound.

MXR are the best, most reliable

No soy un experto en delays, pero he tenido la oportunidad de probar algunos otros como el EHX Canyon y el Digitech Obscura, los cuales hacen un trabajo excelente a pesar de irse más por el lado digital, sin embargo, las opciones extras como el tap-div y la modulación en el Carbon Copy Deluxe le hicieron destacar de estas otras alternativas para mí (y de algunas otras que tenía en mente). De igual manera, el hecho de que se pueda impulsar el brillo del delay dentro de estas opciones le dio otro punto extra para mí.Pero al final, yo creo que la característica que he podido descubrir hasta el momento, y que mas me agrado en este delay, es el feedback infinito que puedes lograr en combinación con los knobs de Regen y Delay, que, considerando que este es un delay análogo, te brinda la opción de crear una gran variedad de atmósferas y texturas que suenan muy naturales, pudiendo jugar con ellos de múltiples formas para ir alterando el espectro de sonido con cada cambio que hagas en alguno de los otros knobs de Speed o Width.El diseño del pedal es muy agradable y llamativo a la vista, y resalta por sobre otros pedales en mi board. Y claro, como todo MXR que tengo y/o que he podido probar, la construcción del pedal es de una carcasa de metal muy sólida y duradera.Tal vez mi único pero es que los botones del bright, tap div y mod son muy pequeños como para bailar tap-dance agusto, pero definitivamente, esto no amerita bajar la calificación para mí.

Perfetto nella descrizione e nella puntualità di consegna ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Excelente sonido analógico, tener la subdivisión y el tap tempo hacen una diferencia enorme en comparación al carbon copy normal
