The Echoplex EP-3 Tape Echo is famous for its warm tone, organic modulation and sweet, musical voice. It is a key component in some of the most iconic sounds of the 70s. The original EP-3 unit, however, is very expensive and larger than a VCR.
That's where the Echoplex Delay EP103 comes in. With the size of a Phase 90, the EP103 delivers the legendary EP-3 tone with a simple interface and a high-fidelity analog signal. The Delay control sets the repeat time from 4ms to 750ms, the Sustain control sets the number of repeats, and the Volume control sets the output level of the repeats.
This pedal is at its best when used in AGE mode. By default the pedal is perfectly calibrated, bright, clear with subtle Wow and Flutter modulation. Simply push the volume knob to age the sound of your repeats, darken the tone, increase the saturation and increase the modulation by turning the knob clockwise.
The EP103’s delay signal gets the same treatment as the Echoplex EP101 Preamp while the Dry signal remains untouched. For the full EP-3 Tape Echo experience, place the EP101 Preamp before the EP103.
The Echoplex Delay also features Tap Tempo functionality for up to 4 seconds of delay time, simply pair it with the MXR M199 Tap Tempo. The Dry signal is completely analog with Constant Headroom Technology, providing 20 volts of headroom, and the ability to choose True Relay or Trails Bypass mode. The EP103 can be set to 100% wet mode with stereo Input and Output.
