Another brilliant project from the folks at Lectric. This is a (rather obscure) EHX analogue delay that builds upon the DMM foundation by adding another MN3005 BBD block. I've always thought of the DMM as the analogue delay—but this may surpass it. It's got everything the DMM offers (solid clock filtering, warm repeats, surprisingly usable overdrive/overload, runaway oscillation, beautiful modulation, blend control), but expands the control set and available delay time. And this box is still smaller than the big box DMM.
The calibration procedure is rather straightforward. As with any BBD delay or modulation circuit, there is a bit of back and forth to find the right balance, but it can be dialed in pretty quickly. The GAIN trims have some flexibility—allowing the FEEDBACK control to be tuned to a degree. I only have two hands, so I find it helpful to solder in short leads for alligator clips during calibration.
Analogue delays may be my favorite category of pedal builds. There are many projects out there—each with unique offerings. But, if you're looking to jump the queue and build something that has close to everything, this may be what you're looking for.
Check it.
Thank you @fig for the DIP 4 sockets!
