<\/a>A reader\u2019s question to the Dude:<\/h3>\n“I have a question about two delay pedals, one of which I own and another I do not, but am interested in. You have demoed both on your channel, just never head to head. <\/em> I basically just wanted to know if you think that one is better over the other in terms of overall sound\/tone?<\/em><\/p>\n I know the Rose has more options, and I am definitely interested in that, BUT my main concern is: in a standard plain ol\u2019 delay setting, to you, which one sounds better, warmer, nicer? <\/em> I like the Carbon Copy Deluxe much better. The sound fits perfect into the mix and it creates a warm and full analog delay sound. And if you choose the bright mode, you get a slight brighter and percussive sound.<\/p>\n Although the Eventide Rose has a nice analog filter, to me, it still feels definitively like a digital delay. For sure, it is much versatile, but to me, it would always be a compromise. But I can understand, that you are always looking for another delay pedal. The same applies to me.<\/p>\n I would keep the Carbon Copy Deluxe as an analog delay on my pedalboard. Sorry, this entry is only available in Deutsch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[256,269,1683,1681,1637,691,263,268],"tags":[392,99,337,64,1848,163,767,393,3338,831,1042,248,2044,390,777,120,115,2146,1984,1199,1675,141,330,543,508,1693],"class_list":["post-4969","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-7000-questions-to-the-dude","category-analog-delays","category-delays","category-digital-delays-pedals","category-eventide-hersteller","category-mxr","category-pedalboard","category-pedals","tag-analog","tag-boss","tag-comparison","tag-delay","tag-deluxe-reverb","tag-demo","tag-dig","tag-digital","tag-erica-synth","tag-eventide","tag-gitarre","tag-guitar","tag-klang","tag-moog","tag-mxr-carbon-copy-deluxe","tag-pedal","tag-pedalboard","tag-ping-pong","tag-rose","tag-sound","tag-stereo","tag-strymon","tag-telecaster","tag-tone","tag-vergleich","tag-video"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p9GLlF-1i9","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":5333,"url":"https:\/\/delaydude.de\/en\/strymon-brigadier-vs-mxr-carbon-copy-deluxe\/","url_meta":{"origin":4969,"position":0},"title":"Strymon Brigadier vs. MXR Carbon Copy Deluxe","author":"Delay Dude","date":"Wednesday January 13th, 2021","format":false,"excerpt":"This is a comparison of the Strymon Brigadier with the MXR Carbon Copy Deluxe.

\nThe pedal I currently run on my board is a MXR Carbon Copy Deluxe. I love the pedal. I am running a professional tele through it into a Deluxe Reverb, and I love how it stays warm and doesn\u2019t color my tone the way a lot of the digital delays seem to. <\/em>
\nFor some reason though, I am constantly looking at other delays thinking, \u201cOhhh, that will be the one I should replace the MXR with.\u201d I am not looking to replace it, but, I don\u2019t know why I keep looking at other ones. <\/em>
\nThis brings me to the other pedal, the Eventide Rose. <\/em>
\nSeems awesome, and has that feeling of the MXR, but I cannot find any direct comparison videos of both. <\/em>
\nI was hoping you could just tell me what you think about the two of them in comparison.<\/em><\/p>\n
\nI know that is subjective, but you have a lot of experience with a lot of delays, and I am very interested in which one you think would be the better main delay on the board and why?”<\/em><\/p>\nDelayDude:<\/h3>\n
\nI would have expected some further digital delay features like stereo, ping\/pong, simpler midi sync options and a more flexible filter (similar to those of Moog or Erica Synth).<\/p>\n
\nAnd to get an additional different sound, I would choose a brighter and more pristine digital Delay like the Strymon DIG or one of the Boss delays.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
