You asked, and MXR delivered! The MXR M299 Carbon Copy Mini captures all the mojo and versatility of the original Carbon Copy delay — the BBD-based analog signal path and 600ms of lush modulated repeats — in a space-saving mini format. In fact, the M299 touts expanded versatility courtesy of its two switchable voicings, which look to two Carbon Copy circuits of renown. In default mode, the M299 dishes out the same dark, chewy repeats that launched the original Carbon Copy into pedalboard preeminence. Engaging the Bright switch, inspired by the Carbon Copy Bright, adds sparkle and definition to suit an even wider range of players and needs. Simple controls and a toggleable mod switch make it quick and easy to stumble upon drippy slap echoes to lingering, ghostly wails. Best of all, the M299 Carbon Copy Mini comes in at a size that suits any travel board or fly rig, with a format that sips current from your power supply. Rethink what your mini delay is capable of — check out the MXR M299 from Music Experience.
Mini format. Analog signal path.
The MXR Carbon Copy Mini delay pedal features an entirely analog audio path, delivering rich, warm repeats using old-school bucket brigade technology. The Carbon Copy Mini boasts 600ms of delay time, with optional modulation via a top-mounted switch, and a simple 3-knob layout to give you complete control over Delay (time), Mix (dry/wet blend), and Regen (number of repeats) — all in one incredibly compact pedal. The M299 gives you everything from crisp bathroom slap echoes to epic delays with the simple twist of a knob. And thanks to its reduced size, the Carbon Copy Mini is sure to find a home on any pedalboard you own.
What MXR Says...
In just over a decade, the MXR Carbon Copy Analog Delay has become a rock ‘n’ roll staple. Its rich bucket-brigade warmth and elegant simplicity have endeared it to guitar players around the world—weekend warriors and recording pros alike. It’s the go-to standard for players who want a well-rounded, easy-to-use delay pedal that sounds incredible. Between the Carbon Copy Analog Delay and Carbon Copy Deluxe Analog Delay, you can find a solution for almost any of your delay needs—but if you’re looking to free up some space on your own board, or downsize to a smaller one for travel gigs, then consider another demand met. The Carbon Copy Mini Analog Delay packs organic analog warmth and ease of use into an MXR mini housing with added sonic versatility so that you can make the most out of your pedalboard real estate. In its default mode, this pedal’s repeats yield the dark, mellow wash that made the Carbon Copy Analog Delay famous. For players who want more sparkle and clarity, we added a Bright switch that accentuates high end frequencies for increased presence and distinctively vocal repeats. And of course, the Carbon Copy Mini Delay is outfitted with the same modulation section as its forebear. Push the Mod switch and adjust the internal Speed and Depth controls to add everything from tape echo warble to shimmery, liquefied chorusing to your repeats. Finally, adjust the parameters of your delay signal with the Regen, Mix, and Delay controls.
