I’m far from a beginner, and the CC is my go-to delay already, but I have to say that this the best demo that I’ve seen for this pedal. Heck, maybe even for any pedal. Adjusting each knob while playing a simple chord is by far the best way to show a pedals function. I hate it when I want to just see what a pedal can do but the demonstrator has to beat me over the head with how blazingly fast/amazingly talented he or she is. I realized about 25 years ago that I’m a pretty good rhythm guitarist, and that’s as far as I’ll get. I’m never going to be able rip out a killer solo and I’m satisfied with my place in the band, so just show me kind of what I’ll sound like playing through the pedal! 😃 Keep up the fine work, young man! I wish I had resource like this when I was starting out.
Thank You! I can't play blazingly fast either. Maybe in the future haha. But I have been thinking about how to best review the tone because rhythm can sound different from melodies. Muting the strings makes it sound different too. I am still trying to figure this out, but I try my best to show what you could expect from the pedals.
You described me 100%. I’m 56 years old. Been playing guitar 40 years and doing it just for fun. Not making a living. Just jamming with friends and the occasional party/bar for fun and beers. Tough to find somebody just banging chords for us rhythm dudes
“Who actually uses self oscillation though?” Me. I bought the carbon copy deluxe almost exclusively for playing with self oscillation. I love the sound, it scratches my brain and it is an awesome transition or even lead-in to a track.
thank you for going into the details and actually showing the characteristics of each knob especially on the tweaking of the modulation switches. Sweet!
Man I appreciate you covering the blue LED. Something about it gives me light sensitivity, and it's what's kept me away from ever owning this pedal. Is that a bit drastic? Possibly.
Blue light is supposed to be bad for your eyes, so I blocked it. It might be fine when the pedal is on the floor, but you can't really avoid it in a video haha. Thanks for your kind comment. 😊
I haven't tried a lot of pedals yet, but I have tried delays through software and, like you said, amps that I had. Excited to review more on this channel.
Congratulations and thanks for the video. Dude tell me something, does the MXR Carbon Copy pedal have a different version? I noticed that some have mxr embossed on the back cover where it regulates the modification effect and others don't. I'm from Brasil, if you can translate will help lol 😂 🇧🇷
Somewhere along the line, they probably manufactured it differently. It should all be sold under the same product though because it is just minor details that should not affect the tone.
@@GrowWithGuitar Yes, they are very different, that inscription in high relief that I mentioned I saw on the traditional pedals. I'm not sure, but it seems that the ones marked MXR on the back are the newest, and apparently the modulation buttons change too.
I am not sure about the mini or deluxe versions, but the exact same model of this carbon copy should all have the internal trim pots. However, I believe this is the updated version of their carbon copy, which made it easier to adjust the trim pots, so if you decide to buy it used, just make sure to check that the internals look the same.
Hola amigo una consulta: Cuando activo mi pedal carbon copy me da un golpe de sonido como "pukff" a que se debe ? Solo cuando se apacha el switch. El pedal funciona bien lo unico es el sonido... espero tu respuesta
Are you powering with recommended 9v or something higher like 12v or 18v? Some do this purposely for higher headroom but I found in trying this all the controls max out on anything useable lower in their ranges. Check you are using 9v.

Great job showing the modulation tuning like that 👍
😁

I often use the self-oscillation. The natural decay of the bucket brigade sounds so good!
thank you for going into the details and actually showing the characteristics of each knob especially on the tweaking of the modulation switches. Sweet!
I love self oscillation! Good review and details about internal modulation controls, thank you (I have ordered a Carbon Copy, can't wait!).
Enjoy the pedal!
Great demo, thanks
Very helpful video! Thanks for posting. I love the sound of those minor chords with the modulation.
Great review! Thanks for the modulation setting details.
Great video!
Great review! Additional thx for the thumbnail picture!
Thanks for watching!
Great demo! Thank you very much!
Thanks for this review, nice presentation, good and informative with no ego trips.
Thanks for watching!
great demo thanks
great review man!
Look, chapters to make it easier to navigate your video, and clear instructions. Thanks!
Great demo!
Great overview thanks a ton
Thanks for watching!

fullbore metal has a blinding blue light. I gotta cover it so I can see what knob is what
@@captaincrunch7661 Never understood the design choice. Figure it was just me. Blue Christmas lights do the same thing!
You could put a piece of tape over it?
@@lundsweden 🤔
Very helpful. Thank you
Nice demo, so basically a Delay with Chorus added?
Good presentation 👌
Good job dude
Gracias por el video mi carnal. Mi pedal no tiene esos pedazos blancos de plásticos, entonces lo tendré que hacer con un destornillador. Saludos!!
Great review. Don't have a delay pedal as yet (my amps have some options), but hear this one is pretty popular. Have you tried many others.

@@GrowWithGuitar keep it up, you're doing a great job
Thanks 🙂

@@GrowWithGuitar wonderful, thank you for the information and congratulations for the channel! A big hug here from Brasil 🇧🇷
Btw, they do have the mxr carbon copy mini and deluxe versions, but they are completely different size pedals.
@@GrowWithGuitar Yes, they are very different, that inscription in high relief that I mentioned I saw on the traditional pedals. I'm not sure, but it seems that the ones marked MXR on the back are the newest, and apparently the modulation buttons change too.
Do all of the carbon copys have the internal trim pots?
Great video!

Yes

Hey, i have a problem that when i pres the mod mode my guitar sounds out of tune.
Very nice video. A W E S O M E !!!
Thank you very much!
my CC has a much more robust range in both the Mix and Regen controls. Is it that your guitar has a very low output? Single coils?
Are you powering with recommended 9v or something higher like 12v or 18v? Some do this purposely for higher headroom but I found in trying this all the controls max out on anything useable lower in their ranges. Check you are using 9v.
