Catalinbread Belle Epoch Demo

Preamp: Famous for making your guitar sound better even when the echoes are turned off. Quality of repeats: The Echoplex was not necessarily 'hi-fi'. As the echoes repeated, the signal got progressively degraded, losing low end and gaining a shiny, percussive top end with a bit of grit. Record level: There’s a control on the EP-3 that sets how hard the tape gets hit. Wow and flutter: The Belle Epoch’s modulation control was designed to simulate the daily mechanical irregularities inherent in original Echoplex units. Head drag: The original unit had a unique quality that when moving the delay time slider it took a moment to catch up to the adjustment, creating a doppler like effect.

Flanger enveloped in a cavernous reverb Embedded a very gentle noise gate to stifle inherent guitar hiss and LFO clock noise The result is an extremely musical flanger that sounds like an extension of your own instrument Can also fuel up and take off when a little dirt of any kind is applied beforehand Runs from 9 to 18 volts using a standard DC center-negative power supply for pedals. Make sure you’re using a supply that provides at least 100mA

Swell Knob: The Catalinbread ECHOREC Multi-Head Delay Guitar Effects Pedal features swell knob which is essentially the feedback control of the delay. Tone Knob: The Tone knob controls the timbre of the echo repeats. It is a tilt-style tone control. Around 12 o’clock you’ll get a relatively flat, neutral EQ. Turning the knob counter-clockwise will give you darker, thicker repeats Delay Time: The delay time on the Catalinbread ECHOREC goes from about 40ms to 1000ms Speeding Up and Slowing Down: The cool thing is you can twist the Delay Time knob in real-time to get speeding-up and slowing-down Program Select: With the ability to vary the delay time on the single playback head, Catalinbread was able to include all combinations, which includes rhythmic patterns not available before
