A brief history of Analog Delay:

The world's first delay effects were achieved using tape loops improvised on reel-to-reel systems in the 1950's. The dawn of the analog delay came in the 1960's with the Maestro Echoplex. Many guitarists embraced the technology as a way to enhance their sound including Robert Fripp, John Martyn and Jimi Hendrix. Often incorporating vacuum tube-based electronics, vintage analog delay units are highly sought after by today's musicians who desire the unique timbres achievable with this technology.

Solid-state delay units using transistors became available in the 1970s and were briefly a mainstream alternative to tape echo. Though solid-state analog delays are less flexible than digital delays and generally have shorter delay times, several classic models such as the discontinued Boss DM-2 are still regarded for their "warmer", more natural echo quality and progressively decaying delays.
