Classic tape echo character recreated
Cosmic Echo is designed to reproduce the behaviour of a celebrated 1970s tape-echo unit, capturing far more than just its tonal character. The effect responds with the movement, harmonic richness, and natural dynamics associated with magnetic tape systems, creating repeats that feel lively and musical.
By modelling the way the original hardware behaved, it delivers the distinctive response and interaction that made vintage tape echoes so widely used in studios and on stage. You get the character of classic tape technology without the maintenance demands of ageing mechanical equipment.
Explore a range of delay patterns
Three independent playback heads provide access to short, medium, and long delay times. Used individually or in combination, they create a broad selection of rhythmic patterns and layered textures.
This flexibility makes the pedal suitable for everything from straightforward echo effects to more complex ambient sounds. Different playback head combinations allow repeats to interact in unique ways, helping you create spacious soundscapes, rhythmic accompaniment, or expressive lead tones with a distinctly vintage flavour.
Shape echoes without affecting your core tone
The dedicated EQ section focuses exclusively on the delayed signal, giving you detailed control over the character of the repeats. Brighten echoes to improve clarity or darken them for a smoother, more subdued response, all while leaving your original signal untouched.
This approach makes it easier to fit the effect into different musical settings without compromising the natural sound of your instrument. It is a practical feature for players who want greater tonal flexibility while maintaining a consistent dry tone.
Add depth with spring-style ambience
An integrated spring reverb simulation expands the pedal's range beyond traditional tape echo sounds. It adds a sense of space and dimension that works well for subtle ambience, melodic lead playing, and more atmospheric textures.
Combined with the movement of the tape-style delay, the reverb creates rich and immersive sounds while remaining easy to control. Alongside the fully analog dry path, this helps deliver a playing experience that feels natural, responsive, and faithful to classic hardware designs.
