Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.44% — somewhat different

The Electro-Harmonix Memory Boy is a compact analog BBD delay delivering dark, warm delay repeats with built-in modulation, capable of a full 100% wet blend for pure-echo, no-dry-signal textures. Delay Time, Feedback, and Blend controls shape the basic echo, while switchable Chorus or Vibrato modulation with triangle or square waveforms adds tonal movement, and cranking the Depth control produces ghostly, warbling pitch wobble on the repeats. An expression pedal input allows real-time control of delay time or modulation rate. It delivers classic bucket-brigade analog delay warmth in a more compact, accessible format than the Deluxe Memory Man, suiting players who want dark, warbly analog echo with expressive modulation built in.
The Keeley Dark Side V2 is a modulation, delay, and reverb multi-effect pedal from Keeley Electronics (Edmond, Oklahoma), inspired by classic Pink Floyd tones (referencing the Dark Side of the Moon album), delivering rotary, chorus, vibrato, delay, and reverb in one unit. The Dark Side provides the core effects palette for David Gilmour-style Pink Floyd tones in one comprehensive pedal. V2 refines the original Dark Side with improved routing and sound quality.
