Re: mxr carbon copy? (digital or analog or both)
The price would probably tell you. Digital are usually much more expensive.
That's why I bought an analog delay[not an MXR].

Re: mxr carbon copy? (digital or analog or both)
Usually digital is much cheaper then analog its only complex digital designs that are more expensive (true bypas tap tempo subdivisions, tone controls, led readouts etc)

Re: mxr carbon copy? (digital or analog or both)
You could've fooled me! I just did an online search and the digitals are more expensive than the analogs,even second hand.It was that way when i bought mine about six years ago except the gap was bigger.
The same things in the USA go for US$30.
I can't find any digital delays under Aus$200

I use an Arion SAD-3. I found a second hand SAD-1 online for Aus$120. I paid just under Aus$100 for my SAD-3

Re: mxr carbon copy? (digital or analog or both)
I have a carbon copy and with my 18 watter it sounds really cool. It is dark but I like the way it sounds. You can use it almost like reverb or it's also great for slap back. And the slight modulation it can do gives cleans a really nice sound.
Oh one drawback is it kills batteries kind of fast - but the light stays bright. So the tone goes downhill but the light never changes. I use an adapter.

Re: mxr carbon copy? (digital or analog or both)
I have an MXR carbon copy and use it live in place of my EP-3 echoplex. I REALLY like that pedal. If you think it is too dark, I'd say try a real tape delay out for size. I find the Carbon Copy to do a pretty good tape delay sound. The modulation on mine is a bit over the top however, but I'm too lazy at the moment to mess with the internal trimpots to tame it and make it more reasonable. I highly recommend the carbon copy, it is one heck of a pedal.

Re: mxr carbon copy? (digital or analog or both)
AFAIK all analog delays are far far more expensive than digi units.
Just look at the MOOG MF104Z & Fulltone Tube Tape Echo (fancy word for delay). Those two alone, are $800.00 & $1200.00 respectively !

To the OP, the MXR is 100% all analog.
And i do not think the CC is dark at all !

Re: mxr carbon copy? (digital or analog or both)
I had a carbon copy for a few weeks. Although I liked it, it was too dark to be my one and only delay. I think I needed something more versatile, but didn't realize it until I had a chance to play it for a while. It's good at what it does, if that's what you want, and the small footprint is nice, too.
For me, the delays were too dark and the modulation was too subtle (and I did adjust the internal trimmer)...perhaps I was expecting Memory Man-style modulation, which it cannot do...I know that now, but this was back when the unit was relatively new on the market and there were not many reviews.
Although it did not work for me, I would certainly buy it again if I wanted a nice analog delay.

Re: mxr carbon copy? (digital or analog or both)
This was a bit of a rash statement based on my expereience D.U.
Looking at prices USA it seems Analog or Digital are similar in price and a s*** load cheaper than in OZ.

They appear to be more an exception from what i could find.

Re: mxr carbon copy? (digital or analog or both)
Seeing that we are covering all types of delay's here !
THIS is my fav digi delay by a mile :
VERY, VERY analog'y sounding.
And like the Yanks say, it is deff a "keeper" !!!
Now i want an EHX DMM !
GAS never ends . . . does it

Re: mxr carbon copy? (digital or analog or both)
Yes they do, that is why a DD-6 cost more than an EHX DMM.
And the Boss has more features than the all analog Deluxe Memory Man, but i will take the EHX unit over the Boss every time.
In fact, if there is one Boss product that i do not like one bit, it would be their delay's.
