Diamond Pedals reboots their Memory Lane Modulated Delay - now with a higher fidelity STM32 Arm Processor and 4 new Modes
So this is very much still a BBD-style Delay, but now loaded with a superior fidelity STM32 Arm Processor.
Superficially it looks identical to is predecessor - while it has a Burgundy rather than Black accent colour.
Looks like the exact same control topology :
Controls - Mix, Feedback, Delay (up to 2400ms), Modulation, Tap [Mode] : Memory Lane JR / Vintage / Galloping 2-Head / Ambient 3-Head, On/Off Footswitch, Tap / Double Footswitch.
The original of this revival phase had 3 Modes onboard : Modern / Warm / Vintage - and now we have 4 - with only the Vintage one in common seemingly.
In short an already great modulated vintage sounding delay is now significantly better.
I would have liked to see TRS Jacks with Full Stereo Input & Output - while I would think the primary audience for this pedal would be very pleased - as for those who had the original - this version is even better.
The new STM32 edition Memory Delay is yours for $259 / €299 / $269. Available for orders now and imminently at International Dealers - who seem otherwise have fully cleared their decks in advance!
Key Features
- Delay Effects Pedal
- Bucked Brigade-style circuit using 3 distinct delay lines paired with analog companding, anti aliasing/reconstruction filters
- Utilising the STM32 ARM Processor for extended delay range, lower noise and more head room
- Up to 2400 ms delay time with lush, modulated repeats
- Offers modern and vintage-style sounds
- Improved Signal to Noise Ratio and frequency response
- 4 delay modes :
- ML jr Mode : Classic fixed-rate delay with silent tempo changes, true to the Memory Lane Jr.
- Vintage Mode : Warm, saturated repeats that capture the soul of vintage analog delays
- Galloping 2-Head : A rhythmic, dual-head pattern inspired by the Counterpoint delay
- Ambient 3-Head : Expansive, cascading repeats perfect for layered soundscapes
- Tap Tempo with Sub-divisions via dedicated footswitch
- Auto Div feature automatically doubles/halves tapped in delay tempo if outside of current mode’s time range
- Doubler feature allows for instant doubling of the delay tempo
- Advanced operation modes
- Geezer Mode : Mimics classic Memory Lane operation without secondary footswitch functions
- Trails Mode : Delay signal will trail off according to Feedback knob setting when the effect is bypassed
- Momentary/Latching Mode: Offers momentary/latching switching for both Delay Modulation and Doubler Feature
- Top-mounted jacks and soft touch relay switching
- Hand-made in Montreal, Canada
- Powered by a regular 9V DC PSU (centre -, 2,1 mm, ~50 mA current draw)
