Maxon designed the 9-Series AD-9 Pro Analog Delay Pedal to be the best sounding, most reliable analog delay ever. Improved construction including through-hole, glass reinforced epoxy PCB's, snap-in PCB connectors, and true bypass switching guarantee trouble free performance. The combination of one Panasonic MN3205 BBD IC and one Signetics NE570 compander provides warm yet crystal-clear delay time with adjustable repeats and zero clock noise.

The AD-9 Delay Pedal captures all the classic sounds of the most sought-after vintage analog delay units. With 10-300 milliseconds of variable delay time provided by a Panasonic MN3205 (low voltage BBD IC, now out of production), the AD-9 Analog Delay can produce a wide variety of time-delay effects, from Rock-A-Billy slapback echo to erratic, runaway delays. The Maxon AD-9's Repeat control provides additional spatial effects by adjusting the repeats from one to infinity to emulate various room sizes. Calibrated for self-oscillation, the AD-9 is an analog delay pedal capable of "UFO landing" effects as well as many other bizarre sounds limited only by your imagination.

The AD-9 stompbox's Delay Level control adjusts the mix between dry and effected signals, allowing the delayed signal to sit back behind the input signal to add subtle ambience or right up in front for greater impact. Stereo outputs provide a variety of signal routing options for use with multiple amplifier setups or mixer channels. All sounds are provided with zero clock noise thanks to one Signetics NE570 compander and true bypass switching using a 4PDT mechanical switch.

Since their introduction in the early 1980's, Maxon 9-Series designs have achieved a legendary, almost mythical status with pedal connoisseurs around the globe. The reasons for this are simple superior sound quality and innovative features that offer a seamless interface between performer and performance nothing more, nothing less. 20 years later this rule still holds true. Now available with improved circuitry including true bypass switching, Maxon 9-Series effects remain the standard by which all others are judged.

Deep Analog Heaven/Thrash Flashback
Posted by Jeeb Thrash Ghost from Richmond, VA on Feb 21, 2008
Experience w/product: I have used it
Reviewer's Background: Active Musician/Guitarist, Recording Engineer
Reviewer's Play Style: Thrash,
In one word the ad99 reissue is comforting. I have owned and played with a number of the Maxon/Ibanez delay reissues (such as the ad99 reissue) and I have to commend Maxon on creating another solid reissue that is a must for any Thrasher or if you just want a delay with an amazing sound. The board-work on these pedals are apparently first rate, and when I played with it I had to admit that I was surprised at how well this pedal sounds even in comparison to the 90's reissues and even the originals. As always true to the AD series, the controls allow for the creation of many different sounds from deep analog slapback (delay 4, feedback 6, level 5) to raging echoes to place behind your shreddiest solos (delay 8-10, feedback 4-5, level 5-6) Maxon's reissues are backbone of true analog tone for guitar players worldwide and I am pleased that new generations of guitar players will not be left out in their ability to own one of the truly greatest pedals ever. PS: if you play 80s style thrash (Sodom, Mercyful Fate, Metallica) this pedal is a must, simply put newer digital pedals DO NOT cut it and this pedal will truly transport you in time.
