The Electro-Harmonix Nano Deluxe Memory Man packs the company's iconic Deluxe Memory Man analog delay, chorus and vibrato into a compact chassis, delivering warm bucket brigade echoes from 30 to 550 milliseconds with lush modulation on the repeats. Dedicated Rate and Depth controls shape the chorus and vibrato that the Memory Man is famous for, letting the repeats shimmer and warble. From warm slapback and rhythmic echoes to ambient, modulated delay tails, it captures the classic big box Deluxe Memory Man tone in a pedalboard friendly size. It suits rock, indie, ambient and experimental players who want vintage analog delay with rich modulation in a small enclosure.
The Electro-Harmonix Memory Toy is a compact analog delay, a close cousin of the legendary Memory Man, delivering lush, warm, organic bucket-brigade echo in an affordable, pedalboard-friendly box. It offers up to 550 milliseconds of delay, enough for thickening solos or spiraling into self-oscillating analog chaos, with simple Blend, Feedback, and Delay controls. A switchable modulation adds a subtle chorus to the repeats that is especially clear on clean tones, lending movement and depth. The repeats are dark and musical in true analog fashion, blending naturally with an amp rather than sitting on top of the signal. It suits players wanting classic analog delay warmth on a budget, working as a great entry analog delay while still dialing in precisely for experienced users.
