hi,

i own the deluxe version of the memory boy and one tip i can give is – be very careful with dialling in modulation depth. it goes easily into very strange sounding modulations. start with turning the depth knob all the way to the left (counterclockwise) to turn the modulation off. then try to play with delay only – turn up the feedback and blend to hear your delayed signal louder.

here are the instructions on the website:

this said – i am very glad to have bought the deluxe version, because the delayed signal is ducked/gated first – depending on the gain of the input signal – louder input – more ducking. too much ducking imho, but i guess it’s to keep the delay signal cleaner – the chips would overload too easily if a highgain signal would “overdrive” the chipset. that’s my guess only.

anyway – in the deluxe version i can put a booster/eq in the effects loop and this way enhance the delayed signal – golden!

hope, this helped.

greetings to malaysia
