FIRST SOUNDS // Recovery Effects Cutting Room Floor V3
May 16, 2025, Pedals
Here we are with another exciting first sounds video, this time with the @recoveryeffect...
We still haven’t been able to snag one of the @AlexanderPedalsUSA Forget-Me-Not, a digital echo unit based on a fairly rare piece of rack gear…designed as a reverberation unit but the implementation was a bit idiosyncratic, so the result ended up somewhere between reverb and delay.
The Forget-Me-NOW takes the gorgeous modulated echo tones of Forget Me Not and condenses it into a half-sized package. We’ve retained the stereo spread and delay tap spacing controls that make Forget Me Not so enchanting, but we’ve carefully curated all the other settings. The result is a concise and gorgeous-sounding delay + reverb tone that’s insanely easy to dial in.
Plus it’s got stereo I/O thanks to it’s TRS jacks.
Here are the full features:

There are so many incredible sounds to be found inside the Forget-Me-Now. Part of me thought this video might be 5 min max with such a simple knob/switch layout, but no. It’s full up with great sounds! Come get some!!
