Most multi-mode digital delays have an analog setting. Idk about the DD7, but my DD8 has it. The sound is pretty convincing, though you obviously don't have control over stuff like modulation, which is why I still have my Deluxe Memory Boy.
The carbon copy is such a fantastic pedal. I really like its warm sound and it is also very versatile. You can play from rockabilly to some classic heavy metal and even some high gain stuff.
This is the best demonstration of digital/analog delay sound differences on entire youtube. For crunch guitar it is definitely digital. Analog works interesting but makes a lot of unpleasant changes in tails. Both are good for different situations. I would say with a bit simplifying: analog for clean "oldschool" sounding guitar (we get interesting sound), digital - for the rest.
I have owned the DD-7 for quite a few years now but never really played around too much with it. It’s now back on my board. I mainly use it on the analog setting. I have always hankered after a true analog pedal and have always admired the MXR Carbon copy. I once purchased a really expensive high end Strymon but after a few days use sent it back. I figured that the DD-7 already gave me everything I needed from a delay. It’s also robust, has tap tempo and a looper option.
I went to GC last night to purchase a dd3 as I have a dd20 giga delay. but it is way to complicated for me.i have been playing acoustic for 1 year 1/2 . now I am switching to electric. so got home and the sales guy put in a dd-7 instead of the dd3. but I had also considered the mxr cc...after watching your post I have decided to keep the dd7..i think it is the best of both worlds..thank you
Great comparison. I hated the digital chorus-y type artifacts present in the DD3. Before watching this video I was 99%certain I was going for the carbon copy. Now... Not so sure. Glad I found your video!
Thanks Michael! Hope it helped. The best way of course is to play them yourself side by side at a guitar store. Remember the Carbon Copy is much "darker" if you're after that sound. And also it's manual, so you can't tap in the delay time
Thanks for the great demo - I play blues and classic rock, with little country and prefer the analog delay. Great comparison that really shows the differences. Thank you
I kinda wish the carbon copy had a knob to let you control how dark or bright the delays are. The analog degradation effect is cool but i wish the first couple repeats had a bit more high end. Though I definitely prefer the carbon copy to the analog mode of the DD7, i still prefer the DD7 just cuz you get more of the transient response to get some nice choppy effects.
To my hears the carbon copy (analog) has a more warmer sound like you said and makes it sound more natural while the boss pedal has a brighter and more intense tone. I think the boss pedal wouldbe better if you want to really hear your delays and have them last long and clear while the carbon copy creates this very smooth background with the sounds. I will probably get both eventually but I might get the carbon first. I want to make very ambient music and when I use delay I don't like having my delays get in the way if I continue to play so with the carbon copy my delays will blend into a nice natural background. Stack that with some reverb and that will be nice! I like delay but it has to be somewhat subtle for my tastes. Thanks for the video! Both are great pedals. Question for you: I noticed you have the mono shimmer pedal. I was thinking about getting a reverb and a dedicated shimmer/second verb pedal. How are you liking the mono shimmer pedal? And what overdrive pedal did you use?
+AndroxineVortex thanks for the comments. Yeah, you're right - the carbon copy sits nicely behind what you're playing and doesn't get in the way. It is good for ambient stuff. For ambient guitar I actually use both DD7 & Carbon copy and reverb, to get a richer sound. Bear in mind, though, that the Carbon Copy has a shorter delay time, since it's analog - and there's no tap tempo, so you have to set in manually. Whereas the DD7 has much longer delay times and tap tempo, which is good for dotted eighth delays in a band situation. As for the NEUNABER SERAPHIM reverb pedal, I love it! Beautiful sounding reverb and I love the shimmer too for ambient stuff. And the great thing is that you can turn the shimmer on or off on the fly just by depressing the switch. I posted some ambient videos on my TH-cam channel using the Seraphim if you want to check them out
+AndroxineVortex Oh sorry I forgot about the overdrive question - I use the Bondi Effects Sick As overdrive stacked together with the M.I. Audio Blue Boy overdrive, for some creamy lead tones
Haha very pretty sounding appregios. I think I like the boss digital better. That dd7 is like their most expensive single effect pedal. Sounds worth it to me.
Both sounds good,, just there's a lot more you can do with dd7, anyway when you play live or studio no one bothers wether you are using analog nor digital, Good and very clear comparison! Many thanks sir!
The correct answer is not analog OR digital.... but BOTH. I like analog with mod set to 1/4 into digital set to dotted 1/8 into a light shimmer verb.... in fact my ambient/u2 vibe pedal setup is pretty close to yours! Carbon Copy (deluxe for the tap tempo) > DD5 (slave tap to CC) > MXR reverb on shimmer. Insane sounds. Cheers!
If you play clean stuff the analog isn't bad. However if you play high gain stuff choose a digital delay, you will barely notice the analog delay playing with high gain distortion tones.
In my experience, the carbon copy sounds good for slapback/rockabilly but sounds horrible with distortion, for example if you want to get a Gilmore sound stay away from the carbon copy (again, in my experience).
fueradeljuego Not really, it's all about setting your gear properly. I've got the Carbon Copy and haven't had any issue playing rock/metal stuff with it.
I get some great Gilmour tones using the CC and a Muff, also sounds good running the delay into the fuzz instead of the conventional fuzz into delay way.
Got a C C on my board. Had a D D 5 on there also Switched out for a Donner Echo Square. More versatile especially the reverse. Smaller, newer and cheaper.
@@petemalins thank you for your reply :) which overdrive did you use at the time of the demo? I'm seeing your "WOrship pedalboard" video and I see you are using 3 different overdrive pedals.
Marvelous review! I have a DD-7 and I'm considering getting a MXR carbon copy for options. I love the sound of the analog delay for some things. When you play them together which do you put first in your chain?
I had a CC but exchanged it for a DD7, CC sounds good but it lacks the versatility of the DD7. Glad I bought in store so I didn't have to deal with the online exchange delay. Great vid, only get the CC if you are gonna chicken pick all day, otherwise get the DD7
Yeah they're both different and unique and actually go great together - that's why I have both ;-) Nice to have a digital and analog delay. But it depends what you use delay for
Peter Malins I have both but my Boss is DD-5 w/ the tap tempo switch added. My Carbon Copy feeds back so bad that I dont use the regen much past 11:00. I kinda use the Copy as a reverb mostly w/ the mod switched on. Also opened up the pedal and adjusted the inside knob to about 2:00. Love them both ,still many more sounds to blend and use as I get to know each pedal better. Forgot to say I glued a plastic piece to the mod button raising it up so I can switch it on or off w/ my foot. More versatility live.
Analog has a warmer and more subtle sound than digital. Digital is more accurate and tight. They're just different and it depends on the context which one is more usefull
@@carnmarth334 Possibly. There are a few languages still in use on the African continent that do not have a word for the color blue. If you show those people a color chart they have a very hard time telling the difference between green and blue because without a word, their brain doesn't distinguish the difference. It is the same with wives. See, they don't have words for our gear therefore they can't see any of it.
I have both. Rather I had the Carbon Copy and still have the DD7 along with the Boss FS-5U footswitch. I grew to dislike the MXR repeat sound and it would get lost as well. The DD7 is just very flexible and can do many things well versus the one-trick Carbon Copy pony.
chresna aditya I ve always used em in front due to no effects loop. Now I have an amp with a loop and tried moving my boss dd3 to the loop, wow....what a difference. I might even reconsider buying a carbon copy deluxe.
They're both different. If you want clear repeats, the digital is better. I actually like tape style delay the best because the sound is almost in between digital and analog.
I think they both sound great but the Boss obviously has more functionality. The delay knob on the MXR is maxed out the whole time. Nowhere left to go. Maybe that's a good thing (?) but just my observation.
True but that's just the delay intervals. With analog delay you don't have much use to space them out much further. With digital the delays repeat more accurately so you can space them longer. With that said, I have a CC that I've used for years and i do love it, but I would certainly like a digital delay as well for more precise delays when I'm playing prog. metal etc. on my 7 string. Like the beginning of after the burials song Neo Seoul(although I think that's a 9 nine string). I love that digital delay sound. I'm more a late 80s early 90s style player but I still play a lot of more modern music cause the skill level has been raised so much that I want to stay on my toes lol.
Hi Pete! excellent orienting video- I have in doubt just buying dd7(which already has an analog position )or mxr cc. I think in the end I would nding buyibg the two of them. regards.
Nice play!! I am not so interested in any kinds of delay pedals. But some amazing guitarists play phenomenal OD sound with tiny delay added something like Legendary guitarist Robben Ford. Anyway delay pedals are really easy to make sounds more dramatic.
In comparision to individual pedals I meant.. if you compare dunlop cry baby to sth that has wah, delay, reverb, chorus all at once.. I've never tried it and it is the only way to find truth.. when you listen to youtube videos you get wrong perception of things.. for example 6 months I've been planning on buying epiphone.. and then I tried 200dollars more expensive gibson.. and all those months of videos went out of the window
I agree, budget defines the sound.. and fingers :) maybe it is even better to keep it clean like Tommy Emmanuel to keep pushing forward, you can become lazier with pedals..
Can't decide still...Digital sounds better with a dirty/overdriven tone, but analog sounds better with clean and reverb. Also, AMAZING playing, but what were u playing when u started using the overdrive? It's awesome ;-)
Thanks so much for the encouraging feedback Joshua! Much appreciated. Actually for the overdrive solos I was actually just improvising in the major scale
I'm playing a Fender USA Stratocaster guitar. My home amp is a Peavey Classic 30 tube amp - but in this demo I think I used a cheaper digital modeling amp (Vox VT30). The Blue overdrive pedal is a MI Audio Blue Boy
@@petemalins ohh ok... Will you get a replacement? I'm looking for a good recommendation basically... Although I do have overdrive on my amp, a blackstar HT5
The Boss DD-7 sounds great but the MXR Carbon Copy sounds amazing. So why does nearly everyone (including me) use the DD-7. I guess the choice depends on whether you play ambient music or not. I will now have to get an analog pedal but should it a Carbon Copy or a Strymon? Pros, cons ???
Shoegaze forever Which Strymon pedal are you thinking of getting? The advantage with Strymon pedals is that you can use tap tempo, have longer delay times and tweak the tone & sound of your delay
Not too bothered about tap tempo and the DD-7 is very versatile. I just want a great sounding analog pedal that can be used with or instead of my DD-7 for ambient sounds.
I like the warmth of the analog delay, but I like the clarity of the digital.
That's why you need them both.
Go for the MXR carbon copy bright!!! Is exactly what you´re asking for!
Most multi-mode digital delays have an analog setting. Idk about the DD7, but my DD8 has it. The sound is pretty convincing, though you obviously don't have control over stuff like modulation, which is why I still have my Deluxe Memory Boy.
@@Frijolero18 you do have control over the modulation. It has 2 trimpots inside the pedal.
Finally, a demo with good clean sound
Thanks!
Yes very well done demonstration; thanks!!
Probably the best explanation of the difference between the two I’ve seen. Doesn’t allow me to over think it. I get it now. Well done Peter!! Thanks
Thanks for the encouraging feedback! I hope it was helpful
I like the break up on the analog. It seems less predictable ,like my ex wife.
Dude 😂 was scrolling through the comments and this one made my day 😂 cheers 🍻
The ultimate dad joke.
"My wife!" -Borat
I got it bro they are like tubes only good when they want

It isnt really, the differences here are just how hes dialing them in, you can make them pretty much sound identical
Carbon Copy: the pedal that you love or hate. In my opinion, I love it so much.
My vote goes to Boss DD-7. And i´m gonna buy it.That´s for sure. Thanks.
Awesome demo, like the MXR love the DD7.
You got such a nice guitar sound demonstration with the kind speaking! I like your video. Lovely!
Brilliant video! Have a DD7 and thinking about a Carbon Copy, your video told me everything I needed to know. Thanks Peter
Thanks Alex! I'm glad it helped
I want both!
I admire the fact that, unlike most videos out there, you also tried the delay pedals along with other pedals, such as overdrive.
Best comparison video i've seen, nice to finally have something with a distinguishable audio

Both of them sound so good 👊🏾💯💯
I have the carbon copy, haven’t had it for long, but so far I really like it
Great vid Peter! Just wanted to mention the DD-7 also has an 'ANALOG' setting, so you can get both (Analog & Digital) if desired.
Thanks for the great demo - I play blues and classic rock, with little country and prefer the analog delay. Great comparison that really shows the differences. Thank you
I have the MXR Carbon Copy for 2 months now, but hearing this demo I think I prefer the DD7

definitely prefer the analog one! Was not aware there was such a HUGE difference

Those riffs you are playing sound so fucking clean!
Excellent demo! Thanks for sharing this with us.
Thanks!
It's essentially digital clarity vs analog warmth/darkness both great in their own sense
By 2:30 into the video it was a no brainer for me. I used to own the Carbon Copy but ive already sold it and ordered the dd7 ;)
The Carbon Copy goes dark too fast and too strong. I love a digital repeat.
dd7 is best digital delay ever ^^
Better than the Strymon Timeline.... I think not
ThePuscher The TC Electronic Flashback is class as well but it is way more expensive.
666madmetalhead only $20 more where I'm from
I agree. Hipsters love that strymon shit tho. It's more ambient and gazey I guess. But nothing beats a good analog for soundscapes.
Earthquaker devices afterneath
Nothing makes us sound better than lots and lots of practice . I can't wait for the keely practice to come out.
Simple & great explanation!
The MXR Carbon Copy sounds muchs warmer!
Carbon so much more harmonic and dynamic sounding.
The correct answer is not analog OR digital.... but BOTH.

Digital delays are great for effects loops, especially high gain amps. Analogs are good for into the input of amps.
Carbon copy bright is very good with smooth bucket brigade tone

I'm a begginer, can you send any tips for make something like those chord progression did you make? It sounds wonderful!
Learn some scales and pick some chords from that scale that you like and pair 'em together...music is about being creative!
Would digital produce a better sound if you used this for vocals, than an analog would?
I would definitely think so, although I haven't tried it with vocals

Shoegaze forever Which Strymon pedal are you thinking of getting? The advantage with Strymon pedals is that you can use tap tempo, have longer delay times and tweak the tone & sound of your delay
Not too bothered about tap tempo and the DD-7 is very versatile. I just want a great sounding analog pedal that can be used with or instead of my DD-7 for ambient sounds.
Shoegaze forever Just go and try a few different analog delay pedals and see what you like
Hello, what cables do you use to connect to the pedals and the mixer trs or ts thx!
