Beetronics BeeBeeDee Analog Delay

BEETRONICS BeeDeeDee Analog Delay was designed to do everything you love about classic echoes, and everything you didn't know an analog delay could do.
At its core are two bucket brigade chips delivering warm, rich, musical repeats with unmistakable character. But behind that analog path is a smart control system, a digital engine that lets you bend time, shift pitch, and move your sound in ways no vintage circuit ever could.

Classic Mode delivers true BBD tone with smooth sine-wave modulation that gently moves around your repeats. You get up to 600ms of clean delay, sitting around 1 o’clock on the TIME knob.
Lo-Fi Mode takes the BBD sound and pushes it into stranger territory.
The repeats are darker, grittier, and more unpredictable, a little noisier, a little moodier, and full of life. The modulation here is irregular, constantly shifting both delay time and tone. What makes it unique is how it also modulates the TONE filter, making your repeats get brighter and darker as they echo and drift.
Pitch Mode turns delay into a musical instrument. Your echoes shift in pitch, creating harmonies, rhythmic patterns, and unexpected textures. It’s driven by a softened square-wave modulation, gently gliding delay time up and down in rhythmic steps. The movement stays locked to tempo, making it feel tight, reactive, and alive.

Function 2X jumps an octave in a heartbeat and land where the echo takes you. TAP or HOLD to double the delay speed. It also shifts the feedback line up or down one octave.
Function TAP allows to set your tempo or shift it mid-flight. TAP to set delay time, HOLD + TURN ACTIVITY to select tap division.
MOD function drop the sound into modulation. TAP or HOLD to toggle modulation on/off – momentary or latches, use it like a mod preset (keep your base delay clean, then engage your dialed-in modulation when needed). It is especially dramatic in PITCH MODE, where mod ON/OFF flips the entire sonic mood.
