Product Description
Now with an analogue BBD Chorus & Spring Reverb, the EF-X3 and rackmount EF-X3R boast a 100% analogue signal path.
Also available in silver: see all the Echo Fix listings.
Information from Echo Fix:
After the successful release of the EF-X2, this and the rackmount EF-X3R are the latest offering in Echo Fix’s line of tape delays. Built by the same team to the highest quality, this new machine includes many of our most requested features and builds on the momentum and trust gained after 3 years of making the EF-X2.
Stereo Output via Direct Head Outputs
Individual outputs for each head offer flexibility never-before-seen in a tape echo, with the ability to achieve a classic Stereo Ping-Pong delay effect by panning each head externally.
Unmatched Reliability
On top of this, we’ve implemented a new auto tape stop circuit to extend tape life.
Same Team, Same Peace of Mind
For nearly 15 years, we’ve been keeping tape echos alive. Now that we make our own, our standards are higher than ever. Rest assured that your machine will be the most capable, reliable tape echo on the market, supported by a team with some of the best customer service in the industry.
It’s Alive
If you’ve been in a room with one of our units, you’ll know what we mean by this. Used as an effect, they simply make everything sound better. But turn up the echo volume, dial in some feed-back and watch as our unit self-oscillates into life and becomes an instrument more than an effect. The EF-X3 will change the way you make music.
