Diamond Memory Lane STM32 in excellent condition- Includes box and original contents - The redesigned Memory Lane captures the lush warmth of classic analog delays with the clarity, control, and reliability of modern digital design. Whether you’re chasing subtle slapback, pulsing rhythmic echoes, or expansive ambient textures, Memory Lane delivers beautifully voiced repeats that sit effortlessly behind your playing.At its core lies Diamond’s digital Bucket Brigade Delay (dBBD) architecture, a unique system that blends analog companding, precision filtering, and a custom-voiced delay line. The result is unmistakably musical, dimensional sound with up to 2.4 seconds of delay time.With industrial-grade converters mated to warm and dynamic analog circuitry, and built-in protection against polarity and over-voltage mistakes, the Memory Lane isn’t just versatile—it’s road-ready.From lush ambience to rhythmic drive, the Diamond Memory Lane is more than just a delay pedal. It’s the next chapter in a legendary story of time, tone, and inspiration.ModesMLjr Mode – Classic fixed-rate delay with silent tempo changes, true to the Memory Lane Jr.Vintage Mode – Warm, saturated repeats that capture the soul of vintage analog delays.Galloping 2-Head – A rhythmic, dual-head pattern inspired by the Counterpoint delay.Ambient 3-Head – Expansive, cascading repeats perfect for layered soundscapes.Each mode responds like a living instrument, with the compander adding smooth compression, anti-aliasing filters enhancing warmth, and the analog feedback path highlighting harmonic richness.Tap Tempo, Subdivisions & DoublerStay perfectly in time with tap tempo and three intuitive subdivisions:Quarter note (green LED)Dotted eighth note (yellow LED)Half note (red LED)Engage the Doubler function by holding the Tap Tempo footswitch to seamlessly double your delay time. For even more flexibility, the Doubler can be set to momentary or latching operation, letting you decide whether it’s a quick burst of energy or a locked-in groove.Designed for Real-World UsePowered by a modern STM32 ARM Cortex processor, the new Memory Lane offers improved headroom, a lower noise floor, and extended delay range—all in a compact, pedalboard-friendly format. With top-mounted jacks, buffered bypass with trails, and flexible 9–15V DC operation (with over-voltage protection), it’s built for years of dependable use on stage or in the studio.The Diamond dBBD DelayAt the heart of the original, analog Memory Lane is a BBD and Compandor. This new, compact Memory Lane is designed to capture the character of the original by implementing an embedded system that operates as drop-in replacement for a BBD and surrounding it with a custom Companding and Anti-Aliasing circuit similar to that of the original. A BBD operates by sampling the input, passing a copy in its series of capacitors bucket-to-bucket, and outputting the contents of the last capacitor, all clocked at a specific rate. This delay line operates the same but uses RAM to pass these copies and an internal clock to define the sampling rate. Our emulation has been pushed even closer with Warm mode’s ability to capture the BBD’s capacitive losses. The analog circuitry aims to respond exactly as the original Memory Lane with the Compandor adding a slight compression and softness, allowing the delay to sit perfectly in the mix, the Anti-Aliasing filters creating warmth, and the analog feedback network highlighting and emphasizing these features.Technical InfoInput Impedance: > 1 MΩOutput Impedance: < 10 KΩ Delay Range: 25ms-2.4s Switching: Buffered Bypass Power Requirement: 9-15VDC negative tip, 2.1mm Barrel Jack Current Draw @ 9V: 50mA Dimensions: 4.8 x 2.64 x 1.58”
