it sounds like the self oscillation is a lot more useable on the echo 600. the oscillation on the DMM is way too bassy. Both the deluxe memory man and the echo 600 leave the maxon delay in the dust though. the electro hamonix and malekko pedals are pretty much neck and neck on everything else.
funny how three differant people will prefer differant choices... at some point ..its subjective, after the quality and functions is considerd.. just wish i could get a diamond memorry lane 2!!! dammit!
Malekko sounds worst than the others. Clipping/over amplification. The Maxon was nice, but a little on the dull side. I say the memory man is king of this comparo.
You are kidding of course. Maxon made and designed the whole Ibanez line at the beginning of the lines. Maxon just makes similar designs that are greatly improved over the Ibanez mass market stuff. Check the facts.
EHX DMM: Most clarity, repeats don't degrade as much, but more noise / has modulation
Malekko: Most low-fi, repeats degrade most, a bit too harsh in long repeats. similar sound to Diamond Memory Lane
AD999: Warmest, long repeats stay musical, most delay time.
The Analogman Delay has the best oscillation and low-fi tone out there. The DMM is king of clear analog modulation, and the AD999 is one of the warmest and most musical.
Hey guys glad to see your comparison videos are back. I enjoy watching all your videos by far the best on the web. I have a request for a distortion comparison - Maxon D&S, Retro Sonic and a Keeley Mod DS-1. Well thanks for considering my request and like always keep up the good work.
I agree with the guy below me Maxon is getting away with murder and of all their pedals I've tried and demos I've heard they just don't stand out in any way. I would call Maxon a good no frills company but nothing to write home about. The DMM swept the floor with both these pedals. Just my opinion.
Personally, I find almost all of Maxon's pedals to be overpriced, with very little character. I thought that the Memory Man had the most vintage, analog sound (which I love) but that may be because I'm a sucker for everything EHX makes. The Malekko was pretty good sounding too, but I would take the MM over the other two any day. Great comparison video, you should make more, maybe a wah, tremolo, and chorus.
Glad to see the comparison vidz up again! They all sound better than the cheaper analog delays. I guess it depends on how you want your repeats to fade out.
This is one of your best demos ever.

3:40 That's why I am getting a DMM. Even in this compressed YouTube vid I can tell it's good. Going to be awesome for swell work!

The memory man won on everything except slapback, which went to the Malekko.

@Ilovemyfender2 Haha but for me I don't really care for slapback anyways so DMM all the way ! :)

Does the Malekko use MN chips like the DMM and AD999?

No effects loop on this amp, in front the old fashioned way.

The Memory Man sounds the best in this video, but I would pick the Malekko over it due to the smaller size.

the oscilations on DMM sounds like a smooking car engine! Freakin awesome! The DMM wins, by far, this comparation.

will you guys sell the ad-999 PRO ?
rafa1969 2 years ago
malekko -- more features, small footprint, good sound
DMM --- cool modulation options, classic pedal
AD999 -- loads of delay time in an intuitive format.
All sound quite good-- i'm waiting for the 919 or the 616 to come out before i judge.

yeah. The memory lane is awesome. It's just that i have a problem with only having 550 ms of delay time. That's just not enough.

I'd say that it's the Malekko or DMM definitely but probably the Malekko.

I would love a "more" boost shootout - the Durham Sex Drive, Retrosonic FA-1, and Diamond boost.

Memory Man all the way baby...
better clarity on the delay... and modulation features...

Well, the DMM wins in my opinion, but I also love the small footprint of the Malekko.

Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery. Every delay emulator had a Memory Man setting on it. The 600 is cool in it's own right, though!

I'm down with the Malekko Echo also. Way more character than the other two. Much cooler sounding oscillation.
