Tape Echo voiced delay pedal with discrete touch-sensitive preamp, which doesn't convert the direct guitar signal. It replicates EchoPlex® EP-3 delay times from 80 ms for perfect slapback to 800 ms for classic tape delay audio. The Belle Epoch is equipped with potentiometers to control the repeats all the way to self-oscillation, loudness of an initial repeat and other useful functions. An internal switch sets it to true-bypass or "trails mode". Runs at 9 volts or 18 volts for more headroom and punch.
