Antelope Memory Cat Brigade

TAPE vs ANALOG
Both Tape & Analog delays have been favored by engineers and producers for decades. They are often described as warmer and more natural-sounding than digital delays. One uses magnetic tape to produce the delayed repeats of the signal while the other uses capacitors to recreate a similar effect. Both types tend to roll off the low and high frequencies, which makes them sit better in the mix. That gives the musical and organic feel that many of us are chasing.

PERFECT BALANCE OF THE TWO
Released in 1980, the Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Memory Man pedal featured a unique marriage of both Analog and Tape delay by reproducing Tape-like echos using capacitors without the need of magnetic tape. Due to its unique circuitry the unit was capable of producing lush, dark and expensive-sounding delays with vibrant chorus and haunting vibrato in a convenient small shape with plenty controls. After being adopted by U2’s The Edge and featured on his “Sunday Bloody Sunday” hit, the reputation of the pedal quickly grew and became a must for many artists including Robert Smith, Ed O’Brien, Arctic Monkeys’ Jamie Cook and the late Chris Cornell. Fast-forward to nowadays, the Deluxe Memory Man has become one of the most demanded analog delays ever built.
