Ah that magical sound of a magnetic tape echo. There’s nothing quite like it, except of course: the Tapex 2!
Thank you for acquiring one of the best tape echo pedals available today, made entirely by hand, with love and
care from Mr. Black, here in Portland, Oregon U.S.A.
The Tapex 2 captures the beauty and natural irregularity of a mechanical tape
echo with complimentary stereo outputs, two modes of operation, and modern
bonuses like tap-tempo, assignable expression pedal control and even the ability
to save and recall your favorite settings, all on the fly.
The left output features up to 808mS delay time, while the right output
compliments the left at exactly half of the delay time, creating a spacious and
dynamic soundscape complete with all the nuances imparted by the old-style
mechanical magnetic tape echo method of echo.
CHOICE
mode replicates a tape echo in good running condition, with smooth
mechanicals and fresh tape, while
DAMAGED I
mode brings in the wear and tear
you would expect after a long life of rock n roll.
There are quite a lot of sounds and capabilities held within this wonderful
instrument and using the Tapex 2 is a snap.
For a mono setup, simply connect your instrument to the IN-L jack, and
your amplifier to the OUT-L jack. You can expand to true-stereo by simply
connecting a second amplifier to the OUT-R jack, no IN-R connection is required, but it is there if you need it.
