Maxon AD999 Vintage Analog Delay
Retail: $375.00
GLP:  $337.99
Just when you thought you'd have to go digital, Maxon unveils the new AD999 Analog Delay. The newest member of the highly touted Maxon Vintage Series, the AD999 is the most ambitious and practical analog delay pedal to come along in ­ well, ever!

A few years back the hopes of analog lovers the world over were dashed when PanasonicMatsushita closed their BBD production line for good. Immediately the price of all types of analog bucket brigade IC's went through the roof, and many larger companies started buying up existing stock and hoarding it for the future. But Maxon is a tough company to hold down, and instead of making the switch to digital as so many other small manufacturers were forced to do, they took a very different approach to solving this problem.

The AD999's tone is pure analog heaven ­ rich, round and three dimensional, the AD999 is much more akin to the tone of vintage tape echo units than either the AD900 or AD­9. In comparison to other Maxon delay units, the AD999's fat, vintage tone is closest to the now­defunct AD80, but with the added benefit of triple the delay time, yielding many medium to long delay effects that the AD80 simply cannot reproduce.

AD999 switching is handled by a Fujisoku 4PDT mechanical switch for transparent, noise-free true bypass operation. Lastly, the AD999 has been designed to run off 9 volts DC for easier integration into players' pedalboards. An internal, replaceable fuse protects the circuit from voltage spikes as well as the accidental use of incorrect adaptors.
