In describing this new version of a company classic, EHX Founder, Mike Matthews, stated: “The new Nano Deluxe Memory Man delivers the lush bucket-brigade delay and modulation of our classic large-format pedal. We simply shrunk it and added some features for modern players including both Rate and Depth knobs for enhanced modulation control. Now, you can have the Memory Man in our time-honored standard chassis, or our new, compact, nano design.”

Awesome! Great news and big achievement!
I have a question:
For every Deluxe Memory Man, Big Box, XO and now Nano I read:
– Up to 550ms of vibrant echo
– Maximum delay time of 550mS
In reality, what users report is a maximum delay time of around 400ms.
The way the clock is set up: 5.6k + 100k pot + 240pF timing cap results in a maximum clock frequency of 100µs (as stated in the factory schematics) which results in 409.6ms of maximum delay time.
No amount of reasonable component tolerances could get it anywhere near 550ms. The factory schematic lists 5% for the cap by the way.
So…my question: will the nano version actually do 550ms as stated, or, being the same circuit, do around 400ms just like all of its predecessors?
I’m fine with 400ms and love my Memory Men (Mans?), but do wonder where that ‘550ms’ comes from.
Yes its longest delay is 550ms. Most units will max out at around 600ms but 550ms is guaranteed.
Can the pedal be used as a preamp by turning delay all the way down?
