Dunlop MXR M299 Carbon Copy Mini

Dunlop · pedal

The MXR M299 Carbon Copy Mini is a compact analog bucket brigade delay that condenses the hugely popular Carbon Copy into a mini enclosure. It delivers warm, dark, organic analog echoes up to 600 milliseconds, with the signature slightly degraded, vintage repeats that sit musically behind the dry signal rather than dominating it. Controls for delay time, regeneration and mix, plus the Carbon Copy's modulation voicing, let it cover slapback, rhythmic echoes and ambient repeats. Its warm, analog character suits rock, blues, indie and ambient players who want classic, gently lo fi delay tones in a space saving format, and it is prized as one of the most popular analog delays for pedalboards.
