Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement.

The Keeley ECCOS is a neo-vintage tape delay and looper that blends warm, dark analog-style echoes with authentic reel-to-reel flanging for lush, evolving repeats. The delay trails are tone-modulated rather than merely pitch-shifted, so the shape and color of repeats constantly shift, recalling Eddie Kramer and Jimi Hendrix Electric Ladyland textures. A tone knob sets how the echoes sit in a mix, handling everything from tight slapback to soupy ambient washes, and an onboard looper adds convenience. It suits players after classic analog delay colors paired with vintage studio flange effects. Its standout character is sumptuous tape-style flanged delay, though its multi-function controls carry a real learning curve.
The Keeley Magnetic Echo is a modulated tape-style delay that simulates warm tube tape echo using a lo-fi delay voice, gently filtered repeats, and subtle modulation. It produces a warm, smooth sound with no glassy digital edge, sitting less in-your-face than typical digital delays while staying guitar-friendly. Controls for Time, Regen, and Level set the delay, with delay times spanning roughly 40 to 600 milliseconds, while dedicated Wow and Flutter Depth and Rate controls add authentic tape pitch movement for vintage or unique textures. It suits players after classic tape echo warmth for slapback, rhythmic repeats, and ambient trails. In shoot-outs its repeats are praised as sounding closer to real tape, with more sophisticated modulation than rivals.
