JACQUES PRISONER
This company in Marseilles France has been going since 1999 a full 26 years. This pedal is based off of the 1982 Dynacord VRS-23 analog delay. a The Prisoner is all about exquisite warm tone not specs as early BBD chips which it uses were a very limited tech. They can only do 300ms. In short there delay time is limited.The layout is Rate 7 Mod is modulation for a tape delay vibe. the delay is Repeat, Time and Level for blending.
CONCLUSION __The beautify of a great analog delay is it frames your guitar.
It never competes with it. The audience listens to your music
not like digital that often borders on Hollywood special effects.
This is so good you can pull it back and it sounds as good if
not better to use it as an always on Reverb.
Your favourite cheap analog delay ?
ReplyDeleteNot dirt cheap but affordable. The NUX Re-Issue Analog Delay. It is a dead perfect clone of the old Ibanez AD 80. They even painted it the same, LOL. The secret is this has the same old Panasonic 3102 and 3105 BBD chips. $50.00 USD. If they were ever discontinued and mine died ...No bull ...I would pay a couple of hundred just to have it back. It sounds so good that when I gig I use a second one on my voice instead of a Reverb. I got the idea from Prince.
