Review
The Tonal Recall is a really interesting delay pedal and #ChaseBliss have really gone to town on it, making it hugely versatile and, most importantly, giving it a wonderful core sound. Take a peek at the video link at the bottom for a demo of the sounds on tap.
Core Tone of the Chase Bliss Tonal Recall Delay
The sublime tone is due to the chips used in the Tonal Recall, which are reissued versions of the bucket brigade (BB) MN3005. The originals can be found in pedals like the Electro Harmonix Memory Man and the Boss DM-2 delay, which are famous for their lush sound. These reissues are produced by Xvive, who invested heavily in r&d to create a similar sounding chip, and for good reason as using the original Panasonics 'new/old stock' was starting to become prohibitive for companies due to their increasing scarcity and, therefore, price.
Xvive use the new chips in their own pedals too, for example in the W3 Memory Analog Delay. The new design has generally garnered a positive reaction, however, whether or not the new or old chips are better is not really the debate here as what is important is that they certainly sound amazing in the Tonal Recall.
