I can’t keep up with the amount of “mind blowing” pedals anymore. It seems like every 3 months there’s another “it” pedal. It sounds awesome but it’s getting a bit out of control. …I’ll probably get one.

Random waves for modulations is the best thing I’ve seen applied to effects pedals in a long time. I have one modelled tape delay that has random pitch warbling for the repeats, and I often run the effect without repeats, just to apply a lo fi warped modulation to my signal.

You don't see people like Josh Scott often, he goes in depth about how great his competion is. Not knocking it, I probably have to buy this pedal now though...
Between this and the Japan vlog, I really enjoy seeing Josh showing and explaining the components. I am also a huge fan of quarter-note delay (maybe because I learned to use delay with an in-amp effect where tap was the only way to control the time) and the square-wave modulation on this has a very cool unquanitized harmonizer-like result. Never thought Josh would play something to remind me of Oneohtrix Point Never, but that last jam did the trick. Puts a smile on my face and I don't even own one... maybe in the future, but I'm so overwhelmed by amazing delays in the world that I just want to try them all until I found one that meets me "where I am in my life". I think it's good to have albums where there's no favorite song. Some albums are warm blankets, not a box of chocolates.
I designed semi and full custom analog and digital integrated circuits. You cannot tell the complexity of the chip by comparing the ceramic or plastic dip outline.
This is how I always think of it: integrated circuits (chips) can be used in digital applications, but they’re not inherently “digital,” they’re solid state, but essentially, they’re circuits. Integrated circuits. They’re the same thing you could make with components building a circuit on a board. Digital is software - DSP, COSM, studio plugins, etc. That software may use or manage integrated circuits, but the circuit is analog, even the integrated circuit - it’s hardware, it’s solid state, it’s not software. This pedal sounds really cool, and if they’d have made something with such outstanding modulation with stereo, I’d already be placing an order 🙂
I don’t think guitar folks get it. The PT2399 is this quirky cheap chip for cheap karaoke machines and junk like that. It was never made to sound good or be precise. It’s pre-DSP digital with very little proper flexibility. You can’t program it, you control it with analog circuitry and a clock signal (if I remember right), but it has memory. It’s survived the ages because it’s super cheap and still is great in toys with microphones and blinking lights… guitar and “real” audio are not and never will be a consideration or even a percentage point of its sales. The documentation on it is terrible. Any good use of it in a pedal came from a lot of experimentation. Usually doing completely undocumented and unintended things to it. I have no idea how Chris Benson is taking advantage of this much at once and with the kind of precision demonstrated. 🤯 His preamp pedal is my only pedal I’d risk bodily harm to fight to keep. I’d feel naked without that one. I could wait to replace anything else.
I know. I designed a delay around it like 20yrs ago, and it wasn’t bad…but what folks are doing with this chip now is quite impressive. I will say though with 1.2 seconds of delay, he’s likely using 2 chips not one like most.
@@constantk8780 Totally fair. I overstated. I’m also sorry. I’m not meaning to denigrate people who like guitars. That came out wrong based on your response. I obviously am one.

It’s a weird thing between a retro cool BBD and what is expected out of a digital delay. It’s novel and really well engineered and I’m impressed.
@@mikesalmo there have been projects in the DIY world for a while like TapPrecise that make tap tempo available for the PT2399. Similarly, attaching an LFO to the delay time will produce modulation. I'm guessing that this is about what is happening here. Basically, add those two items to a pretty standard (probably dual) PT2399 and you're done. But I may be wrong, would have to see the inside.
This gave me the idea to look up what kind of delay chip is used in the Korg Monotron Delay - a little $50 synthesizer - and sure enough, it is a PT2399, which totally makes sense, because it is a really dirty sounding delay. The cool thing is that you can bypass the oscillator and run through the synthesizer’s filter and delay circuit with something else, essentially using it as a delay pedal. I’ve run other Monotron synths through the delay this way, but now I want to see if it works with guitar.
I have no effect pedals and play through my only amp can afford and its the mini honey tone from Sweetwater. Man I would be stoked with any one of the effect pedals you play and share with us! Love all the content I've been watching. Thanks for your passion
That has to be one of the best demonstrations of a delay pedal evah ! (Boston accent)..Fantastic playing..fantastic tone..cool guitar..fantastic delay pedal. It's a goddam demo of a pedal, and I can't stop listening to the track. It's an instant classic. I actually jam along to it with my guitar. Too much fun. Ya sold me..gonna get me a Benson Delay...Love the show !
Stop right there Mr. Herman’s, what have you done with Josh? Seriously, Josh, damn, freaking FANTASTIC vid, bud, you absolutely nailed this one! Usually I just listen for the girl, but you ruled here! 😉
When will someone build in the obvious solution to 'something useable' (18:09) by synchronizing the lfo to the tapped-in delay time + throw in independent time division + starting phase as well? How hard can it be?
Bet it'll do killer vib, Univibe, chorus, and even flanging. With the menu and different waveforms and such it can obviously do much more but what gets me is the tone. It's edible.
I love the sounds, but it's a bit pricey and I can't afford it. However the aliexpress karaoke boards with the same chip are less than $5 and now I'm curious if I can mod one...
After this I still like my Red Repeat by Carl Martin. (which has the same chip btw) But I love your enthusiasm. And Wet Leg is great. Love the Tiny Desk Concert. And wasn't Benson a muppet?
Ya I have a rubberneck, and they are extremely similar, it probably wouldn't be worth getting both...BUT I'd venture to guess the benson has a slightly better components and possibly better toan...if your into that.
So does the Benson sit between an analog delay and a space echo making owning it redundant if you already own both or is it an Analog delay sound that could be an alternative if you're in the market for a DM2 / Carbon Copy, etc.
Ya it's like a carbon copy...I'd say it's closer to a rubberneck with the modulation control and longer delay time. The repeats a little cleaner than the carbon copy for sure. Would pair well with a clean digital delay like dd8.
The Deluxe Memory Boy is all analog and has a similar feature set and includes wave form modulation in the delays. Also has an effects loop if you want to get even weirder with the repeats
I agree with duncanmowatt3945. I have the Memory Boy Deluxe on my board…. Watching demos of this Benson (particularly the demo by Ambient Trash) has prompted me to re-explore my DBD in a creative way. I think the basic sonic character of both pedals is similar as is the feature set. Cheers!
Interesting Delay and Josh playing vibe. I have FLAMMA delay that has "poor-man's" version of the LFO/Warble. Definitely would "upgrade" to this Benson if the FLAMMA died. ... Basement reviews (Solo-Josh) are becoming "standard" in 2023, but I still miss the "Big Room" shows & reviews. #FullBand ...maybe less #SarcasmFauxShow and ONE "Big Room" per month or so? #NickDrumsPlease
I love everything Benson has put out, but I don't fully understand this one. It sounds fantastic but in this current era of "pedal renaissance", how do they not have a presets function? No gigging musician is going to be changing parameters that much... Should have followed the Keeley Halo model.
