Members Guitarboy48 Posted November 27, 2009 Members Share Posted November 27, 2009 What bands use guitar delay? I know U2, but what other bands use a dotted eighth delay like the edge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members axegrinder Posted November 27, 2009 Members Share Posted November 27, 2009 ...a dotted eighth delay...Do you mean like the opening notes on Run Like Hell? Or what about the EVH tune Cathedral? Delay is just about everywhere to some degree, but some songs are built on it.

Members tlbonehead Posted November 27, 2009 Members Share Posted November 27, 2009 there's delay somewhere on nearly all popular recording in the last 30+ years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members metallica_00 Posted November 27, 2009 Members Share Posted November 27, 2009 there's delay somewhere on nearly all popular recording in the last 30+ years. It's amazing, when I first started out I never really thought of delay being a critical part of many general guitar sounds. I got a delay pedal to do big delays like the Edge etc. But so many tones, especially lead tones, have a touch of delay on them. It's a pretty indispensable effect. David Gilmour does have some good uses, Another Brick in The Wall has some good rhythmic delay in it as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does that killer lead with tons of delay and then goes to a totally dry part in his solo and the guitar just suddenly sounds like it moved forward about 10' in the mix.

Members metalheadUK Posted November 27, 2009 Members Share Posted November 27, 2009 All my bands use delay to explain late arrival at gigs. "Delay in traffic" "Delay in the Pub" "Delay in getting out of bed" etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Angry Tele Posted November 27, 2009 Members Share Posted November 27, 2009 who doesn't? You probably mean who uses it dramatically like The Ege...I like delay + fuzz ala Jeff Beck Yardbirds and a million others. Surf bands use delay to great affect, check out The Penetrators' Rip Thrillby stuff or The Shadows echoplex (Meatzi) goodness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members NashSG Posted November 28, 2009 Members Share Posted November 28, 2009 David Gilmour pulled out the rolling delay sound again to good use also on Pete Townshend's "White City Fighting". Billy Duffy used that delay sound quite a bit on some of the big tunes by The Cult like "She Sells Sanctuary". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Armchair Bronco Posted November 28, 2009 Members Share Posted November 28, 2009 Greg Sage of The Wipers used an EchoPlex on a lot of his recording. And delay (or multiple chained analog & digital delays) are the staple of shoegazing bands like Radiohead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JesusCrisp Posted November 28, 2009 Members Share Posted November 28, 2009 I guess Angus Young is one of the small amount of guitar players who don't use delay (or any other effects). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
