Maxon AD-999 Vintage Analog Delay Pedal

Yet the real magic of the AD999 is in the Delay repeats – they exhibit a slightly overdriven tonality that sits perfectly behind dirty tones and adds depth and dimension to clean sounds.  This distortion reacts dynamically to your pick attack, making the initial repeat pop slightly while the remaining repeats blend seamlessly with your original notes.The repeats also feature a slight EQ spike at around 1.5 kHz, preventing them from getting muddy or non-descript.  This also allows the AD999 to maintain presence in a mix without having to raise your volume.

While there are more affordable and more feature-laden Delays out there, you’d be hard-pressed to find one that sounds better than the AD999.  When players wax poetic about the mojo and mystery of analog delay – THIS is what they are talking about.
