{"product_id":"mad-professor-deep-blue-delay-163907","title":"Deep Blue Delay","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA modern delay designed like a vintage tape echo\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Mad Professor Deep Blue Delay was conceived as an \u003cstrong\u003eambient delay\u003c\/strong\u003e : a simple, musical, and immediately inspiring effect, with a bandwidth and decay reminiscent of classic \u003cstrong\u003etape echoes\u003c\/strong\u003e. The choice of digital processing for the repeats is not a \"cold\" compromise: it allows achieving the typical grain and consistency while maintaining a compact format and a more accessible price than a much bulkier analog equivalent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnother strong point: the \u003cstrong\u003edry signal path\u003c\/strong\u003e is deliberately short and fully analog, without unnecessary filtering. As a result, as long as your input level stays within a \"normal\" range, the pedal adds \u003cstrong\u003eno saturation\u003c\/strong\u003e or unwanted coloration to the original sound: your guitar and amp remain front and center.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Deep Blue Delay for, and in which styles does it make a difference?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Deep Blue Delay is aimed at guitarists who want \u003cstrong\u003ea plug-and-play delay\u003c\/strong\u003e, without menus, tap tempo, or superfluous options. Its natural playground: \u003cstrong\u003eblues\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003erock\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eindie\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003epop\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003egarage\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003efunk\u003c\/strong\u003e, and all contexts where you want to \u003cstrong\u003ethicken\u003c\/strong\u003e the sound, create depth, or give a sense of space without masking the playing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLive, it is perfect for leaving a discreet \u003cstrong\u003eslapback\u003c\/strong\u003e on permanently or to support a lead with two or three well-measured repeats. In the studio, its transparency on the dry signal and consistent behavior on repeats make it an excellent tool to double a part, set an atmosphere, or stabilize a rhythmic delay \"by ear.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eControls and design: simplicity serving musicality\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Deep Blue Delay goes straight to the point with three potentiometers. The \u003cstrong\u003eDelay\u003c\/strong\u003e control sets the repeat time between \u003cstrong\u003e25 ms\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e450 ms\u003c\/strong\u003e, covering both short echoes and wider ambiances. The \u003cstrong\u003eRepeat\u003c\/strong\u003e control manages the amount of feedback: from a single repeat to \u003cstrong\u003einfinite feedback\u003c\/strong\u003e for pads and textures. Finally, \u003cstrong\u003eLevel\u003c\/strong\u003e adjusts the mix between the dry sound and the effect, allowing you to go from a very background delay to a clearly present delay.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe repeats are crafted with filtering designed to allow extreme settings while remaining clean and usable, without annoying interference. Most importantly, the pedal is known to \u003cstrong\u003ehold up well with saturated sounds\u003c\/strong\u003e, where many delays become muddy: you can use it \u003cstrong\u003ebefore distortion\u003c\/strong\u003e (for a more \"old school\" feel) or \u003cstrong\u003eafter\u003c\/strong\u003e (for clearer repeats), depending on your approach and pedalboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSound signature\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Deep Blue Delay's sonic signature is a \u003cstrong\u003ewarm and natural ambiance\u003c\/strong\u003e, with repeats that blend into the sound rather than highlighting it. With the dry signal remaining analog, you retain a crisp attack, intact dynamics, and excellent response to right-hand nuances and guitar volume. The repeats evoke a \u003cstrong\u003evintage echo\u003c\/strong\u003e : a sense of depth, controlled bandwidth, and musical decay that helps \"stick\" to the track.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRegarding pedalboards, this approach has attracted musicians from varied universes: \u003cstrong\u003eAlbert Hammond Jr\u003c\/strong\u003e (The Strokes), \u003cstrong\u003eEddie Clarke\u003c\/strong\u003e (Motörhead), \u003cstrong\u003eRebecca Lovell\u003c\/strong\u003e (Larkin Poe), \u003cstrong\u003eMatt Schofield\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eMarc Ford\u003c\/strong\u003e (The Black Crowes), and \u003cstrong\u003eVigilante Carlstroem\u003c\/strong\u003e (The Hives). A good indicator of its versatility: it stays subtle in rhythm parts and becomes expressive in leads, without ever complicating the guitarist's life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical
