My delay pedal of many years bit the dust. I’ve tried a couple of different units, but they created white noise, both in line and in the effects loop. What pedal do you guys use that is quiet?

Roger, I have a Boss DD6 purchased this year that does the job for me. I haven't detected any noise using several different amps.

I have two different pedals that are quiet. MXR Carbon Copy and the Ibanez Mini. Both are analog.

I use the tiny TC Flashback. Small footprint and you have several options when you set it up.

I concur
The MXR Carbon Copy is clean and effective

Dennis and Mark, with the Carbon Copy being analog, do you notice any deterioration of the repeats?

Plus one for the TC Flashback for true bypass, noiseless switching, small footprint, great sound.

No deterioration of repeats. Analog is just a little warmer tone. Traditional delay.

I have never noticed any noise with my TC Electronic Flashback 2.

My Mooer ReEcho on the other hand adds a fair bit of noise and also seems to boost the volume in an unpleasant way.

I've had a couple of Moorer pedals and both noisy. One of them quit working altogether. They are inexpensive and usually you get what you pay for. I have a Joyo SpaceVerb and love the reverb quality, but it adds considerable "hiss" white noise. It's ok to use on stage, but not if you're recording live or studio. Again, inexpensive.
