The Crazy Tube Circuits Echotopia is a four-head retro tape echo delay pedal offering mono input to stereo output. Delay times range from 40ms for head I through up to 1200ms for head IV. Features Echo Feedback, Mood (tone shaping of the repeats), and Rate and Depth controls for sine wave modulation of the delay. The four-head architecture replicates vintage multi-head tape echo machines where different heads could be used for varying echo textures. Made in Greece by Crazy Tube Circuits.
The Keeley Magnetic Echo Delay V2 is a magnetic tape echo emulation delay from Keeley Electronics (Edmond, Oklahoma), delivering the warmth, degradation, and modulation of vintage magnetic tape echo units in the second version of the Magnetic Echo design. V2 refines the original Magnetic Echo with improved tape saturation, wow, flutter, and repeat character at Keeley Oklahoma boutique quality.
