Description: This is a brief demonstration of the crazy sounds of the Diamond Memory Lane. Diamond Pedals is a small company in Canada, and this is probably their flagship product. It sounds a lot like the classic Electroharmonix Deluxe Memory Man, but it is a bit more flexible, including a footswitch for tapping delay tempo. It is MUCH more expensive too at 430$, although I must admit that the circuit is extremely complicated (it looks like a small PC inside) and that they use expensive audiophile parts. The Dlx. Memory Man costs almost half as much, although hardcore purists insist that it colours your sound and makes it dull, something that this pedal supposedly does not do. Both of these analog delay pedals have the ability to go over the top and produce crazy swirls, squeals and other strange eerie feedback noises, but this pedal takes it even further, as shown in this video. Note that there is no guitar signal coming in! (They probably hit a note in the beginning and adjust the knobs to preserve the feedback in the pedal) It sounds like an alien driving an old American muscle car which eventually breaks down, and the alien gets pissed off, gets back into his spaceship and leaves... (talk about vivid imagination!) Get a very good idea of the warm delay sounds that these pedals can produce at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwG-63ktLDg For more information on it, see another vid on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGl-ryaMwfk and also its page at http://www.diamondpedals.com/products/memorylane.html |
