I have a Carbon Copy mini, really happy with it and what it brings to the table and been thinking, do I need to add some digital delay to the board. Talk me in or out of a digital delay pedal.

Get one. There is something to be said for a crisp exact copy of the note, especially in a noisy distorted environment. Fuzz + Analog "Warmth" = unidentifiable analog crap.
Clean, crisp, super long....you need a digital delay.Originally posted by Bad City

I've found digital delays can sound like analog just by darkening the EQ of the repeats and adding a little modulation. But an analog delay can never get clean and clear as a digital, so for me digital is a requirement and analog is optional. I can do anything with digital. I can do some things with analog.

You already have a delay to do delay things, and you dig it.
Maybe there's a different kind of pedal (OD, Dist, Modulation, Clean Boost, Compressor, etc) that you don't have one of yet...

It depends on your musical needs and what you like. It never hurts to have various tools in your tool belt. I am always a fan of getting more gear so I say go for it. We get one life, living is far better than existing. YMMVThe music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side.

I love warm sounding digital delays with massive delay times- loops for days! If I can use an expression pedal mapped to feedback, even better.Administrator of the SDUGF

My ideal delay 1-2 punch is an AD9 for shorter and a DD3 for longer. Had the DD3 for decades. would take it over an analog any day.Originally posted by Bad City
