Delay Pedals

The Boss DD-8 is the most powerful delay pedal from Boss to date. Since the famous DM-1 Delay Machine in 1978, Boss has been known for great delay sounds, and the DD-8 takes this to a new level. This small pedal offers up to 10 seconds of delay time and 11 different delay modes, from clean, clear repeats to strange, glitchy, and modulated echoes. It also includes a 40-second looper with overdub function, perfect for practice, soundchecks, or creating quick backing tracks during a show. Tap tempo makes it easy to match the delay speed to any song using the footswitch. The Carryover switch lets delay trails keep ringing out even after you turn the effect off. You get true stereo inputs and outputs with three output modes: independent, panning, and wide stereo. Smart I/O options open up many ways to connect it. You can also add external footswitches for instant tap tempo, more looper control, and a special Twist effect that adds swirling echoes.

The Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Memory Man is a classic analog delay pedal famous for its warm, organic sound that many say beats digital delays. It gives up to 550 ms of rich echo, very close to the feel of real tape delay. You also get lush chorus and deep vibrato effects for a wide range of beautiful sounds. It is easy to use with a simple bypass footswitch to turn the effect on or off. A direct out jack always sends your clean, unchanged signal. The level knob has an overload LED that lights up if your signal is too strong, to help avoid unwanted distortion.
The Blend knob mixes the direct and delayed sounds. Center position gives equal amounts of both. The Feedback knob adds repeating echoes, high feedback with short delay can create a reverb-like effect. The Delay knob sets the time between the original sound and the echo, and you can create strange pitch-shift effects by turning it while playing. The Chorus/Vibrato control adds modulation to the delay time. Slow settings give smooth chorus; faster settings create vibrato. For a full, vibrant chorus, set the switch to chorus, keep delay short, blend in the middle, chorus level high, and feedback fairly high. This pedal delivers true analog warmth and endless creative possibilities.

The MXR Carbon Copy is a classic analog delay pedal with a fully analog signal path. It uses traditional bucket brigade technology to produce warm, rich delay tones that feel organic and musical. You get up to 600 ms of delay time. The simple three-knob layout makes it easy to shape your sound: Delay sets the time between repeats, Mix blends the clean and delayed signals, and Regeneration controls how many echoes you hear - from one or two repeats to long, fading trails. A top-mounted switch turns modulation on or off to add gentle movement to the repeats. Inside, two trim pots let you adjust the modulation width and rate for more detailed control. It fits perfectly on any pedalboard thanks to its compact size. Bright blue LEDs show when the effect is active, and it runs on a 9-volt battery or optional AC adapter. From short, crisp slapback echoes to big, epic delays, the Carbon Copy delivers classic analog sound with straightforward operation.

The Line 6 DL4 MkII Delay Modeler is the updated version of the famous original DL4, a pedal loved on big stages, in churches, and in home setups everywhere. It keeps the same green look, knob layout, and footswitch design as the classic model, plus all of its original sounds and features. The MkII goes much further with 15 new delay models from Line 6’s HX technology and 15 added reverbs for even more creative options. It includes 1-switch and 4-switch looper modes with up to 240 seconds of recording time. You can expand this to several hours using a microSD card, and loops stay saved even when power is off. The looper works in mono or stereo and can be placed before or after other effects. An XLR microphone input lets you loop vocals directly without extra gear. Full MIDI In and Out/Thru supports control changes, program changes, and more. You get three presets with the A, B, and C footswitches, or six if you use the Tap switch to change banks. Up to 128 presets are available via MIDI. It offers switchable true, buffered, or DSP bypass, plus an expression pedal input. This pedal gives you everything the original had and a lot more, making it a top choice for powerful, great-sounding delay effects.

The Boss Waza Craft DM-2W is a modern reissue of the classic DM-2 analog delay pedal from 1977. The original DM-2 was loved for its dark, moody bucket brigade tone, but it was discontinued in 1984 and had some clock noise issues. Collectors have searched for that special sound ever since. The DM-2W is a complete redesign, not just a copy. It uses a new bucket brigade circuit that gives the same rich analog character without any clock noise. In Standard mode, you get the original dark and moody delay sound. In Custom mode, the delay time increases from 300 ms to 800 ms, and the repeats become warmer and clearer for a more modern feel. Both modes include extra useful features: split wet/dry outputs let you send the clean signal and delayed signal to separate amps or channels, and an expression pedal input allows you to change the delay time smoothly while playing. This pedal brings back the famous vintage tone with improved reliability and flexibility.

The Digitech DOD Rubberneck Analog is a powerful pedal with a larger double-wide chassis that gives you double the features and controls.

The Mix knob blends your clean signal with the echoes, and the Repeats knob controls how many repeats you hear. Turn Repeats all the way up for exciting, wild self-oscillation - a fun and classic feature of true analog delays. The pedal has a strong metal body built for the road and true bypass to keep your tone clean when the effect is off. If you want real old-school analog delay in a tough, affordable package, the Echobrain is a perfect choice.

The Keeley Magnetic Echo is a tape-style digital delay pedal that adds warm, rich, saturated echoes to your guitar sound, just like real magnetic tape. It gives you delay times from 40 ms to 600 ms, so you can create short slapback effects or longer dub-style repeats. You control the sound with three main knobs: delay time (sets how long the echoes last), regeneration (adds more repeats), and delay level (sets how loud the echoes are). Then use the wow and flutter knobs to add realistic tape modulation - that gentle wobble and pitch variation you hear on old tape machines. The echoes slowly lose high frequencies as they repeat, just like analog tape, for a smooth and warm tone. This pedal is built strong to last through years of playing. Many guitarists love its classic analog feel in a reliable digital format.

The JHS 3 Series Delay is a simple and high-quality delay pedal. It has only three main knobs (Mix, Time, and Repeats), but it gives you a wide range of delay sounds. You can create short, bright slapback echoes for country picking or long, dreamy washes perfect for shoegaze music. A small Type switch lets you choose between two sounds: clean and clear digital delay, or darker, warmer analog-style delay that feels like old bucket-brigade units. Turn the Repeats knob up high for fun, chaotic runaway feedback that adds excitement to your playing. The delay time ranges from 80 ms to 800 ms, so you can go from quick repeats to deep, spacious effects. It is affordable, easy to use, and has no complicated menus. The pedal runs on a 9-volt DC negative center power supply (adapter not included). Guitarists love its clean tone and straightforward design - perfect when you want great echoes without extra fuss.

The T-Rex Replay Box is a compact true stereo delay pedal that offers many useful features in a small, strong design. It has left and right inputs and outputs for real stereo sound. The dry signal goes through an analog circuit, so it stays clear with no latency or color change. A tap-tempo footswitch lets you set the delay time exactly to match your song, even while you play. You can choose between quarter notes, triplets, or dotted eighth notes with the subdivision switch. The delay time goes up to 3 seconds, and the sound is always beautiful and clear. It runs on a standard 9V DC power supply and has one of the smallest footprints for a pedal with this much power. The Replay Box is built tough for stage use and easy to step on. This makes it a great choice for players who want high-quality stereo delay without taking up much space on their pedalboard.

The TC Electronic The Prophet is a studio-quality digital delay pedal that gives you clean, clear delay sounds at a very good price. It comes in a strong, attractive metal body built to handle tough touring use. Digital delays used to be expensive, unreliable, and short on delay time, but The Prophet changes that completely. It offers three delay ranges through a simple 3-position switch: 200 ms, 500 ms, or 1300 ms. This lets you create short slapback echoes or long, spacious repeats. You control the sound with three main knobs: Time (sets delay length), Repeat (adds more echoes), and Mix (balances wet and dry signals). It uses true bypass circuitry to keep your tone pure when the effect is off. The pedal runs on a 9V battery or a TC Powerplug 9V adapter. Designed and engineered in Denmark, The Prophet brings high-quality, versatile delay tones to any guitar or keyboard setup.

Imagine the quiet, magical forests of the far north. Treefolk called the Fable move gently across the land. The old tree beings live in peace with the young ones, who grow from cut pieces of their parents’ branches. This creates strange and beautiful combinations that continue through many generations in perfect harmony. The Walrus Audio Fable Granular Soundscape Generator delay pedal brings this fantasy world to life in a small box. It uses two powerful DSP chips to mix sample-and-chop delay with granular effects. You get five different programs to explore many sounds, from wild and busy swarms to calm and flowing tones, or strange and natural textures. Knobs let you adjust grain size, sample length, position, and buffer. It has tap tempo for easy timing and buffered bypass to keep your signal clean. This pedal helps you create amazing, otherworldly soundscapes.

The NUX Atlantic Delay & Reverb pedal combines two essential effects in one compact unit, saving space on your pedalboard. It gives you a wide range of classic and modern delay and reverb sounds. On the delay side, you get three different styles from past decades: warm '60s Tape Echo, rich '70s Bucket Brigade Analog Delay, and clean '80s Digital Delay. The reverb side offers three types: classic Spring, smooth Plate, and big Hall reverb. Each side has its own level control to balance the mix. Shared knobs let you adjust time, repeat (for delay), and decay (for reverb). NUX’s Core Image Tech adds modern Shimmer and Freeze effects for extra creative options. A Smart TAP function with subdivisions helps you set the tempo easily. Stereo output creates wide, immersive sounds, and you can choose parallel or serial routing to stack the effects in the way that best suits your music. This pedal replaces several others while offering great control and tone.

The Keeley Memphis Sun pedal brings warm, vintage guitar tone that feels like stepping into a 1950s recording studio. It combines lo-fi reverb, echo, and double tracker effects to create that classic rock 'n' roll, country, and rockabilly sound. This pedal does much more than just rockabilly, it inspires fun, old-school playing and puts a smile on your face. It offers three modes for different starting points: Slapback 600: adds reverb plus echo with longer delay times, Sun Mode: includes reverb, automatic track doubling, and slapback with short delays, Room Mode: gives studio-style reverb with a pre-delay range from 0 to 180 ms. Each mode is designed to copy the special character of 1950s recording techniques. If you want to add a true vintage vibe to your pedalboard, the Memphis Sun is a great choice that will spark creative ideas and good old-fashioned rock 'n' roll energy.

The Walrus Audio Lore Reverse Soundscape Generator is a special pedal that helps you create magical, dreamy sound worlds. It feels like walking through hidden forests where light sparkles through green leaves. These sounds, called “Lore,” move through time and include backward echoes that feel like old memories or fantasy adventures. The pedal uses two DSP chips working together in series, each with its own analog feedback path. This design lets you catch unique, hard-to-describe sounds. It focuses on reverse delay and reverb, plus time stretching, pitch shifting, and huge ambient spaces. You get five different programs to mix reverse delay and reverb in creative ways. Extra controls include the Regen knob to add special character, the X knob for detailed adjustments to trails and reverb, a Mod knob for wet-signal modulation, and a Dive/Rise function (using tap tempo) to shift the clock rate up or down. This pedal is perfect for building soundtracks to imaginary realms or enchanted stories.

The JHS The Milkman is a compact two-in-one pedal that combines slapback delay and a clean boost. It was created through a collaboration between JHS Pedals’ Josh Scott and Milkman Sound’s Tim Marcus. The goal was to build a small pedal that fits easily on any pedalboard and delivers classic tones. The delay side focuses on short repeat times perfect for slapback sounds, like those used in rockabilly music. You control it with four knobs: Slap (delay time), Mix (balance between dry and wet signal), Repeat (number of echoes), and EQ (tone shaping for brighter or darker repeats). The boost section is separate and can be turned on with its own footswitch. It is fully adjustable, so you can set the exact amount of volume increase you need. The boost works great whether you leave it always on or use it just for certain parts of a song. The pedal uses true bypass to keep your tone clean when off, and its small size makes it very pedalboard-friendly. This unit gives you two useful effects with simple, musical control.
