From the seller
I'm selling a Wampler Faux Tape Echo pedal with Tap Tempo, complete with its box and manual.
The Faux Tape Echo is a boutique delay pedal inspired by the sound of vintage tape echoes. It reproduces the warm, organic, and slightly imperfect character of vintage tape machines, with the practical advantages of a modern pedal.
Unlike a classic digital delay that produces very clean and precise repeats, the Faux Tape Echo allows you to obtain more vibrant echoes, with modulation reminiscent of the speed variations and slight mechanical irregularities of old reel-to-reel tape recorders. This allows you to achieve everything from subtle repeats to thicken a clean sound to more pronounced vintage ambiences, shifting textures, and highly expressive echo effects.
The Tap Tempo function allows you to adjust the delay time directly with your foot by tapping the desired tempo. This is very practical for playing or performing live. The pedal also features a rhythmic subdivision control to tailor the repeats to the song.
The modulation section allows you to manipulate the movement and variations characteristic of a tape echo, recreating effects such as wow and flutter. The direct signal retains its analog path, and the pedal features true bypass.
With approximately 800 ms of delay time available, it covers a wide range of uses: slapback, rhythmic echoes, clean accompaniment, warm repeats, or atmospheric pads.
Wampler is a renowned American brand in the world of boutique pedals, particularly appreciated for the quality of its circuitry and its designs geared towards the sound of classic amps and effects. The Faux Tape Echo is a particularly interesting alternative to tape-style delays offered by Strymon, Catalinbread, Keeley, MXR, or Electro-Harmonix.
