Electro Harmonix Deluxe Memory Boy

All new from EHX, the Electro Harmonix Deluxe Memory Boy! This big brother to the popular Memory Boy features the same, high quality IC’s for warm, vintage sounding delay, as well as some added functionality. The Electro Harmonix Deluxe Memory Boy has TAP TEMPO!!! Yes, you heard me, the Electro Harmonix Deluxe Memory Boy has tap tempo. We’ve all been waiting for that one. Aside from that there is also five different note subdivisions to choose from, expression pedal control over your choice of Rate, Depth, Feedback, or Delay, and an effects loop. The same famous modulation from the Memory Boy is included as well with the Depth knob controlling the waveform as well as the effect depth. The added effects loop allows you to add your own modulation as well. Think about it, true bypass, tap tempo, and that smooth EHX analog delay we all know and love; could the Electro Harmonix Deluxe Memory Boy offer any more?


The Electro Harmonix Deluxe Memory Boy sounds fantastic. The repeats are warm and fuzzy, just like an analog delay should sound. The modulation is pure EHX with everything from choppy bits to smooth Floydian chorusing. We love tap tempo and the tap function is spot on. Just three taps and your set with any song you need to play. Between the subdivisions and the expression pedal (not included) control, there is no delay tone the Electro Harmonix Deluxe Memory Boy can’t do. We’ve all been waiting for a solid, tap tempo analog delay. Is it any surprise that EHX beat us to the punch? The Electro Harmonix Deluxe Memory Boy is the next evolution of analog delay.

Anyone know how much delay time this has? I can't find info, so I hope it's not well under a second.

From what I can gather it's saying that it is the same circuit as the Memory Boy, which would put it at 550ms (arguably) but tap tempo may go up to and a bit past one second however the repeats will suffer in quality

Seems interesting. Is it supposed to be the same delay circuit as the memory boy?
From all videos I've seen on youtube, as i didnt have the chance to hear it myself, the memory boy was great for its money but not quite as good as the memory man though
