ANALOG DELAY WITH CHORUS/VIBRATO
Congratulations on your purchase of the Electro-Harmonix Memory Boy...a smooth
analog delay that takes its heritage from our 1970's Memory Man and the legendary
Deluxe Memory Man. The Memory Boy uses the Deluxe Memory Man as a base,
expanding upon it with additional modulation features and an optional Expression
Pedal input allowing external control over Delay Time or Modulation Rate.
WARNING: Use only the 96DC-200BI adapter that Memory Boy comes
supplied with. Do not use any other adapters. Using other adapters, even
those made by Electro-Harmonix, could cause harm to the unit, the adapter or
you.

- OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS and CONTROLS -

Connect your guitar to the INPUT jack of the Memory Boy and the OUTPUT jack to
your amplifier. The Memory Boy can be used in combination with other effects
devices. Experiment with combinations to develop your own unique sounds. The true
bypass footswitch allows you to switch the effect in and out.
START UP TIME: The Memory Boy takes approximately 20 Seconds to fully warm
up. During this time you will hear the delay time slowly increase for a given DELAY
knob setting, especially if the DELAY knob is above 50%. After about 20 Seconds the
Memory Boy settles on the delay time set by the DELAY knob.
DELAY Knob – Controls the delay time of your Memory Boy. The delay time range is
30 mS to 550 mS with the maximum delay time at the full clockwise position of the
knob. Turning the DELAY knob, while listening to your echoes, will bend the pitch of
your notes. The DELAY knob is also used to set the maximum delay time for
expression pedal control.
DEPTH Knob – Sets the amount of modulation that is applied to your delayed
signal. Turning the DEPTH knob clockwise will increase the amount of the
modulation. To completely turn off the modulation, turn the DEPTH knob down to the
full counter-clockwise position.
