\"Tips<\/a>Several times I found in guitar forums the comment that some guitarists can`t deal with the mix pot of the MXR Carbon Copy Deluxe. It is true: you have to turn the pot into full clockwise direction to get a delay signal which is a bit louder than the clean guitar signal. Is the mix knob adjusted to a four o\u2019clock position the delay and the guitar signal approach an equal loudness. For rather decent delays you should use the area between two and three o\u2019clock.<\/p>\n

But what about the rest of the knobs’ range?<\/h3>\n

Regarding the aforesaid settings, I provided that the delay is used with a clean amp. But if you use a slightly overdriven amp, it has always been pretty complicated to adjust the delay in a decent way. Regarding most delay pedals, the range of the mix knob is almost useless. As soon as the amp overdrives, you will have to adjust the delay in a much more decent, because the repeats will be boosted pretty much.
\nAnd this is where the MXR<\/a> Carbon Copy offers an enormous advantage: It can be adjusted quite nice even in front of an overdriving amplifier. The range of the mix knob between 7 and one o\u2019clock offers pretty fine increments which allow to adjust the signal quite easily.
\nBy tuning the pedal internally to Line Level, you can use the pedal in a perfect way in the effects loop of the amp. The bug is rather a feature.<\/p>\n

By the way: by adding a small external switch you can change between two saved settings.<\/p>\n

The MXR Carbon Copy Deluxe is a real workhorse and should not be underestimated.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
