This sound sample was recorded with a Burstbucker Les Paul, playing through the HX Stomp / Helix "Dookie" preset, available here on the site. The delay was added to the end of the signal chain.

There is a remastered Helix model of this delay named Bucket Brigade.

Analog echo units like the DM-2 were designed as improvements over the tape echoes that came before them, using “bucket
brigade” electronics to give guitarists echo units that were more reliable than the tape-based delays. Analog delays are treasured
for the warm, distorted tones they produce, and are also great for creating more experimental sounds. Try this, for instance: set
the DELAY TIME at 12 o’clock and REPEATS knob to max and play in some guitar, so the delay circuit “overloads.” Now spin
the DELAY TIME knob quickly to get something like the sound of a space-aged speeding race car imploding on itself.
