Replace My Carbon Copy

[Empty Pockets]

I gave my sister my old Carbon Copy so i need a good delay. I was thinking of the Way Huge SupaPuss because it's analog and Dunlop and has tons of cool options, but i figured I'd ask you guys for some recommendations. I can't find another analog pedal with all of the features the SupaPuss offers, and I'm pretty sure i don't want to go digital. Ideas?

The Vapor Trail gets great reviews, I suggest trying it out if possible.

I know Dunlop just released an Echoplex delay pedal I've heard nothing but good things about. May wanna look into it.

Do you need tap? If so, Supa-Puss is a great choice.

Malekko 616, Standard, Dark or Lo-Fi depending on your preferences.

Do you have any Chase Bliss? I almost shot the moon for the Black Friday sale, but every demo I hear of them is always whacked out experimental stuff. I mean Joel is an awesome dude who created some amazing stuff, but most of the time you just need a simple sound.

I have all of his pedals.

They can do simple very well.

Sorry to hijack, can I see your latest board?

Here's my latest board (for bass):



Here's my current guitar board:



And because four pedals is enough for nobody, here's the board I'm going to put together when I have free time (hah!)



Wah goes in the bottom right, power supply on top left. Fuzz or overdrive will go on the bottom, along with a MIDI controller for the Chase Bliss pedals.

Re: Replace My Carbon Copy

I replaced mine with a Belle Epoch, and replaced that with a Flasback mini.

Both of those are digital with analog dry-through, though.

My next will be the Dunlop Echoplex, as it works fantastic with my Dunlop Echoplex Pre, but same thing- analog dry-through.

Looked at the WAZA DM2?

Deluxe Memory Boy (assuming you don't want to pay for the DMM). A bit dark by default but you can tweak the tone of the repeats, very "analogey" and a ridiculous amount of features for the price.

The Boss DD-7 is a digital Delay and sounds very good and pretty analog like.
The tc electronics Flashback, pick the one you like is also a digital delay but sounds great and kinda analog like.
Boss has a analog Wazacraft Delay pedal that looks simple. If it's as good as the Blues Driver and Chorus Waza Pedals, this might be the home run your looking for. I'm gonna pick one up as I want to give it a go. The Wazacraft stuff from Boss so far as really impressed me especially the Buffer circuits.

Re: Replace My Carbon Copy

What do you want from your delay? Analog/tape sounds or pristine digital delay?

The Supapuss looks very cool and the utube demos sound great. If you want versatility, it's hard to beat the TC Flashback for options.

Re: Replace My Carbon Copy

Yeahh, i could see adding a Flashback Triple for writing and studio stuff buuut I'm pretty sure the SupaPuss is the best option for me. Warm analog tone is my thing, and this offers that with plenty of versatility...

Re: Replace My Carbon Copy

At least watch a YouTube of the 616 Dark.

Re: Replace My Carbon Copy

The Carbon Copy is a fairly unique sounding analog delay, it has a resonant mid-range that puts it in a completely different category of tone than the Memory Man or Vapor Trail (which tend to be much smoother). To my ears I think it makes the CC closer in tone to a very dark tape delay as opposed to the more conventional smooth analog sound found in most analog delays.

If you want something to replace it while keeping a similarly unique feel check out either the Way Huge Aqua/Supa Puss or the Boss DM-2w. I'd personally suggest the DM-2 as it has the same beautiful midrange as the Carbon Copy but with a slightly cleaner input sound and repeats.

Re: Replace My Carbon Copy

I'd go with the Vapor Trail for the mod controls on the outside of the box, and the way cool Insert Jack, that lets you send the delay to a bunch of other effects. You can really create some wild sounds.

I really want to try this pedal, actually I think I'm just gonna buy it.

Re: Replace My Carbon Copy

The Wampler Faux Tape Echo is pretty amazing and you can get them used for around $100. I thought it was flipping awesome but unfortunately it was a little too good at behaving like a Tape Echo for my tastes.

Personally, I like my repeats to sound analog while I'm playing clean, then take on a more digital sound while under gain. I ended up going back to my Keeyley Recino because out of the dozens & dozens of digital & analog delay's I've owned it does this best.

The Wampler was fantastic until I threw a ton of dirt at it, then the "analog flaws" kinda sounded like the signal was falling apart? It's probably worth mentioning that the kind of gain I'm talking about isn't typical, even for guys that use oodles of gain all the time. When I just had a Tube Screamer or some other light-moderate Over Drive pushing my amp the Faux Tape sounded great!!!
