    Yeah, not sure what’s up…but luckily I have an outlet just for that pedal on my board.

    Definitely confirmed to work best with the supplied adapter. For whatever reason the repeats are about half as pronounced when running it off of the onboard 100mA outlets…Don’t know the story there.

    I don’t have any way of measuring that, but yes they are regulated outputs. I will try using one of those outputs for power again to do another side by side and will report back on the sound.

    I have 8 isolated 9 volt 100mA outlets on my board they are mini plug to DC connector style outlets. I am not sure why there is a difference in sound if it only draws 92 mA…unless my outlets are under powered, although they are working well to power all of my other pedals, and also worked to power the regular Memory Boy any ideas?

    eeek, bad news. . . I’m using up both my high mA outputs on my power supply. . .

    It shouldn’t require much more than 100mA, since that is what the manual states as the current draw. What other pedals are you using? I initially was upset too, because I was using all 3 of the normal “wall type” outlets on my skb ps-45, but I was able to take the boss psa-120 that was powering a TU-2 (which was powering a couple pedals) out and make use of the 100mA outputs on the board for the other pedals. The only downfall to my solution is that now all of my power outputs are in use (all of the wall type ones and the 100mA mini-plug style ones), which means no more FX on board…which i guess is OK since the board is pretty much overflowing as it is. I still think I like the SMMH a little more, but this one is definitely going to be an integral part of my rig.

    the FX loop on there is great, btw. I highly suggest trying a dynamic filter in there, it is pretty sweet! A flanger is also real cool in the loop. I am excited to try my boss PS-3 in there!

    Anyone else get there’s yet/have any tips or suggestions for the FX loop?

    Alright, I figured out what was bothering me about the DXMB…I was using the power supply on my pedal board, which in theory was fine, since according to the manual the DXMB draws 100ma. The outputs on my board are maximum 100ma, so the DXMB must draw a bit more than that, or the power supply must not be putting out the full amount, which seemed to hamper the tone. Now that I am using the supplied adapter, it seems to have plenty of “head room” or whatever it needs, and sounds just like the regular memory boy. I really dig this pedal!

    Ok, so i got mine on friday and startd messing around with it saturday. my first impression is that it does not sound quite as good as the regular memory boy, to be honest, but there are a lot more options to tailor your sound (it has a really nice low cut mode to brighten the delays). I feel like it is much more subtle than the standard memory boy, so it is much harder to get those rhythmic delay groove going than on a digital, or even other analogs. This is what I have observed so far, but I need to mess around with it more and do an A-B comparison of the DXMB and the MB, which will probably be tonight.

    The FX loop is pretty cool. I put a dynamic filter in there and it is pretty cool, but it is easy to get some oscillation if you set the feedback past noon with this set-up. I also have tried some pitch shifters in there, which produces an effect pretty much like some of the modes on a Boss PS-3, so it is pretty cool.

    Overall I think I may be more into digitals after all. I really dig the SMMH, and if that pedal had the tap divide option, expression control, and FX loop, it would be THE BEST delay out there, period.

    Stay tuned for more info!

    Not sure if this has been brought up yet, but is this pedal true bypass? I would imagine it is, but it does not list that in the “quick specs” on the product page like other “memory series” delays that have TBP. Other than that, I am literally compulsively checking for updates as to when this thing is gonna be available!

    I agree with your post on this unit. I might even go as far as to say I like it better than the Cathedral for its simplicity. Truly a plug and play pedal that is also extremely versatile.

    I really can’t wait to get this. It is magical, how i was gearing up to buy the seymour duncan deja vu (which is pretty similar to this, although it is more like the DMB combined with a SMMH, give or take from both). Now EH somes out with the DMB at almost $100.00 less than the deja vu, and has all of thethings I wanted out of the Deja Vu, nothing I didn’t care about, and is right on the horizon. I am DEF buying this! But when will it be here!?
