    I just posted under my thread on the ‘Memory Toy’ that I received today. HIGHLY impressed to say the least.

    On the way now I have a Dr. Q Nano coming. Totally can’t wait for it!

    Next in line to order will be the Nano Small Stone and the Nano Holy Grail. I’ll be posting with any and all follow-ups on these as I receive them in the mail.

    So..I finally received the EH Memory Toy today in the mail. I plugged it in as soon as it came. Man!! I got to tell you, I am HIGHLY impressed! Wow, this thing sounds niiiiiice. As I mentioned before, I’ve already owned a few of the EH Memory Man pedals in the past, so I kind of had to keep my expectations low since I use to love that pedal. Man, was I thrown through a loop ( no pun intended ) when I plugged this in. This pedal sounds very warm, tight and defined as I know the analog sound. In such a very basic design, this pedal delivers all the goods that I used on the Memory Man at a very affordable price. Since I’m a big fan of analog delay, I may even pick up a second just to have on the road with me. Tomorrow I’ll be back to post a more descriptive review on the pedal but I thought I would stop in real quick to let everyone know that you don’t have to hesitate on this pedal. Once again, EH does not disappoint.

    Hahaha, I’ll post here too.

    So I’ve got the Memory Toy, Nano Clone, Doctor Q and LPB-1. I’ve also got the Little Big Muff Pi, but that doesn’t really count as part of the Nano line.

    Love the Memory toy. I posted on Nep’s other thread and it’s great. Mod effect is a bit strange, but the delays are fantastic. Tweaking the knobs while there’s sound going through the pedal is pretty trippy too.

    I like the sound of the Nano Clone, it’s a nice balance between wet and dry signals. The main problem there is the volume drop off. I’m hoping there’s a way to fix that. If anyone knows, let me know too.

    Doctor Q sounds great to me as long as the bass switch is engaged. Shutting it off results in complete loss of tone and volume. But with the bass switch on, it sounds cool and funky. It can do a sort of wah-like sound when you set your guitar volume at the right level. Teaming it with a bit of overdrive makes it sound like the Nano Bassballs pedal.

    LPB-1 is one of my favorites. At the end of the chain, it’s perfect for solos or times where you just want to be the star. At the front of the chain, it works great for adding a bit more gain to other effects. In front of the amp, it can push it the amp into overdrive. I’ve only been able to try this with my Line 6 spider, but I’m waiting to get my Fender Hot Rod Deluxe fixed up so I can try it there too.

    Wow, Jay! That’s a nice little EH set you have going on there. I was just looking at the Dr. Q Nano and the LPB-1 and was thinking of purchasing them right along with the Nano Stone. Good god, and add the new Holy Grail too. Man, I’ve got some dough to fork out! Hahah! :-)

    Hey Nep,

    When you get yours, let me know if you find a use for the mod effect. So far, it’s the only thing that bothers me about the pedal. Not a major issue though since I find that the delays sound great!

    Yeah, no problem man! I’ll definitely let ya know. I’m sure I won’t be using that much as I bought it primarily for the delay. Added features are a bonus though, and total fun to play around with!

    I don’t mean to thread jack, but mine was delivered in the mail yesterday. TOTALLY AWESOME! I’m still tweaking settings to find ones that I like, but so far I’m totally impressed. I think the one thing I haven’t quite found a use for is the modulation switch. It kinda sounds like a slow pulsing detune effect. But otherwise… TOTALLY AWESOME!

    Hey Jaylow,

    What’s up? :-) Not a problem on the thread jack, I posted this so I could get some feedback on this pedal no matter good or bad. Mine is on its way through the mail so I should have it by Monday. Glad to hear you are really digging yours though! Makes me that much more excited. Until mine comes, I guess all I have is to discuss through here which is cool too. I’ll be posting my thoughts as well as soon as mine shows up.

    As much as I’ve seen and heard about this pedal, I’m really liking it. I’ve owned the Memory Man and regret ever getting rid of it only because of in dire need of cash at the time. I think this is an excellent supplement into getting that feel back again for the price. So far I’ve heard a few folks playing these and they sound excellent. I just ordered the Memory Toy because the price on that can’t be beat as well. I’ll be along to pick up one of these shortly. EH can bring a game.

    I will definitely let you know what I think about the Memory Toy. Its a very basic set up but theres something to be said about the simplicity of pedals like this. I really like the basic features because it lets me take full control of the pedal live, over trying to reset a pedal with a million options on them. All the pedals in my set up are consistent with basic features. I save all the toying around for the studio. Cheers!
