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.49% — somewhat different

The Strymon Brig is a compact stereo delay built to celebrate classic analog bucket-brigade tone using Strymon's dBucket DSP technology, which recreates the sound and tactile behavior of BBD delays. It offers three voicings named after popular BBD chips: a 3205 mode tailored for short doubling delays from 30 to 300 milliseconds that fatten leads and provide slapback to raygun sweeps, a 3005 mode for longer classic analog repeats, and a Golden Ratio Multi mode. It delivers the warmth, subtle grit, and organic degradation of analog BBD delays in a small, modern stereo pedal. It suits players wanting authentic bucket-brigade warmth, vintage slapback, doubling, and modulated analog repeats in a pedalboard-friendly format, blending naturally with clean and driven amp tones for rock, indie, and ambient styles.
The Walrus Audio Meraki is a true stereo, all-analog bucket-brigade delay that lets players create syncopated rhythms with independent control over the left and right channels. Each channel has its own Feedback control, and a Mix knob blends wet and dry, while adjustable modulation adds chorus and vibrato movement to the repeats. A Tone control sets a tilt EQ in the delay lines, cutting lows and boosting highs clockwise or the reverse counter-clockwise to shape the warmth of the echoes. The pure analog signal path gives lush, warm, organic repeats with genuine BBD character. The dual-channel design also gives a ping-pong delay. It suits players wanting warm analog stereo delay, from simple repeats to modulated ambient trails.
