Description
The Faux Analog Echo and Faux Tape Echo delay pedals are now extremely well
established in Nashville and beyond, from masterful session guitarists to studio
"house sound" collections and of course as the key delay tone for many pros!
From New York to France to Italy to Japan and anywhere else there's a music
scene looking for some killer delay tone, you'll nd them. Based around very
carefully selected and very rigorously tested PT2399 delay chips, the Faux
AnalogEcho and Faux Tape Echo circuits allowed Brian to combine the note
clarity of a sophisticated digital delay with an all-analog dry path (unaected
signal) and magnicent all-analog tone-shaping and modulation circuitry. What
that means to you is that you get a true hybrid pedal with the best of both
worlds: exquisite note clarity in perfect harmony with beautiful analog warmth.
From country slap-back to ambient washes to straight-ahead rock and metal
delay needs, the Faux Analog Echo and Faux Tape Echo pedals are famous for
their awesome tone.
But we wouldn't be Wampler Pedals if we didn't listen to our users, artists, and
dealers, and take into account feature requests. Brian Wampler wouldn't be who
he is if he weren't always thinking of a better way to accomplish something cool.
This new version of the Faux Tape Echo takes everything great about the original,
and adds to it the much-requested tap tempo functionality users have wanted
for a long, long time, as well as a new way of emulating the elusive and beautiful
character that people look for in classic tape echo units. The time has come for
the Faux Tape Echo that everyone has been waiting patiently for – and Brian's
worked hard to make sure you're going to love it!
To get the most out of your new pedal, you'll want to become very familiar with the controls. The new Faux Tape Echo features Level,
Repeats, Shade and Delay controls, in addition to a Tap Tempo footswitch located on the bottom right which overrides the Delay control
as long as the pedal is powered. The modulation section is appropriately called the "Faux Tape Reel," and can be engaged or bypassed
with a toggle switch.
When engaged, you have access to two controls, Movement and Sway, which allow you to dial in the precise modulation amount and
character that you want. Continuing a proud tradition, the pedal features an all-analog dry path, ensuring that your fundamental tone is
just as pure coming out as it was going in. As with all Wampler Pedals products, the Faux Tape Echo includes high-quality true-bypass
switching which takes it completely out of the signal path when bypassed. Experiment and enjoy!
