MXR | Carbon Copy Deluxe Analog Delay 3
Basic Operation
1. Run a cable from your guitar to the M292’s INPUT jack 
and another cable from the M292’s OUTPUT jack to your 
amplifier.
2. Start with all controls at 12 o’clock.
3. Turn the effect on by depressing the EFFECT 
footswitch. 
4. Rotate the REGEN knob clockwise to increase the 
number of repeats or counterclockwise to decrease it. 
5. Rotate the MIX knob clockwise to increase the ratio 
of wet to dry signal or counterclockwise to decrease it. 
Fully clockwise results in equal wet/dry mix while fully 
counterclockwise results in 100% dry signal.
6. Rotate the DELAY knob clockwise to increase delay 
time or counterclockwise to decrease it. 
Note: This control overrides the tempo set by the 
TAP BEAT footswitch.
7. Press the MOD switch to add modulation to your 
delay signal (indicated by pulsing blue LED).
8. Rotate the SPEED control clockwise to increase 
modulation rate or counterclockwise to decrease it.
9. Rotate the WIDTH knob clockwise to widen modulation 
effect or counterclockwise to narrow it.
10. To set the tempo of your repeats, tap your foot at 
least twice on the TAP BEAT footswitch to desired rhythm.
11. Press the TAP DIV switch to engage and select one of 
four tap tempo subdivisions: dotted 8ths, 8ths, Triplets, 
and 16ths.
12. Push the BRIGHT switch to accentuate delay signal’s 
high end frequencies (indicated by red LED).
13. The internal INPUT GAIN switch is factory set to the 
GTR position, which optimizes the pedal’s performance 
for instrument-level input signals. Set the switch to its 
LINE position to optimize performance for line-level input 
signals. NOTE: INPUT GAIN switch does not affect overall 
output signal level.
14. The internal DRY switch is factory set to its ON 
position, which adds 100% of your unaffected dry signal 
to the output mix while the delay effect is on. Set the 
switch to its OFF position to remove the DRY signal from 
the output mix while the delay effect is ON, giving you 
100% wet return for recording and parallel signal mixing.
The Carbon Copy Deluxe Delay is powered by a 9-volt battery, 
a Dunlop ECB003 9-volt adapter, or the DC Brick™ and 
Iso-Brick™ power supplies.
