The NUX Analog Delay is a compact analog-style delay pedal built around a classic bucket-brigade circuit design. It is intended to deliver traditional warm, dark echo repeats associated with vintage analog delay units, with natural degradation on repeated signals.
The circuit uses analog BBD (bucket-brigade device) architecture to produce organic delay tails that gradually roll off high frequencies as repeats increase. This creates a characteristic “warm smear” that sits behind the dry signal rather than dominating it.
Controls are straightforward, typically consisting of delay time, repeat (feedback), and mix level, allowing quick adjustment from subtle slapback to longer ambient repeats. The pedal is designed for simple integration into standard guitar signal chains and supports true bypass operation for minimal tone coloration when disengaged.
Key Features:
- Fully analog bucket-brigade delay circuit
- Warm, vintage-style echo with natural roll-off
- Simple 3-knob control layout (time, repeat, mix)
- Suitable for slapback, ambient, and rhythmic delay
- True bypass switching
- Compact pedalboard-friendly enclosure
A straightforward analog delay focused on core tone character rather than expanded digital features or presets.
