The NuX Tape Echo is a tribute to the Japanese-made Space Echo from 1974. The analog tape echo devices record incoming audio to a loop of magnetic tape, then replays the continuous loop over the playback head before it is erased again by new incoming audio. The Space Echo units used the standard 1/4-inch tape designed to spool onto tape reels. However, this device used no reels of any kind; the tape is transported via a capstan drive. The tape loop is contained in a loose, constantly moving jumble in the tape chamber (also known as the tape tank) under a plastic panel which protects the tape and keeps it from getting tangled. The design resulted in lower levels of noise, wow, and flutter, and cut down on tape wear.
Core-Image Technology
The NuX Tape Echo uses Core-Image technology to capture these characteristics including bass, treble, repeat rate (Time), intensity (repeat), echo volume (level), reverb volume (reverb), and physical features like wow, flutter, and saturation. Even self-regenerate, self-oscillation using a dual foot switch stomp-box enclosure. The NuX Tape Echo keeps the controls of the original hardware and adds some for modern workflows. Use the select knob for various head combinations, time for timing control, and repeat for repeats and self-oscillation. New features include BPM(Sub-division)/MS switching, and Tap Tempo.
Spring Reverb Brings Psychedelic Slapback and Ambience
The important characteristic of Space Echo is the spring reverb. Core-Image technology captured the natural spring reverb sound, and combined the warm and organic delay, Tape Echo gives you lush echoes. Hold the ON foot switch, you can engage self-oscillation to get infinite feedback.
SOS Mode
Press ON and TAP footswitches simultaneously to enter SOS mode(looper). In the meantime, the ON footswitch can do REC/PLAY/DUB as a phrase looper function. The display will show you the current status. During loop playing, you can press ON and TAP footswitch to quit SOS mode, and the loop will keep playing. You can change the parameters and reenter SOS mode.
