Echo FixEF-X3 Tape Echo + Analog Chorus - Desktop (White)

Echo Fix EF-X3

The Echo Fix EF-X3 aims to capture the magic of units like the RE-301 Chorus Echo that blend both analog tape delay and BBD chorus into one blissful audio effect, now in a limited edition white color. Unlike their popular EF-X2, which has some DSP chorus and reverb effects inside, the EF-X3 is totally analog from start to finish.

The centerpiece of the EF-X3 is the tape delay offering three playback heads and seven mode settings for various rhythmic patterns in true Space Echo fashion. An additional fourth head for Sound on Sound looping was added which may be engaged separately for building out loops, drones, and generally tape-rich textures. The right side of the panel features essential delay controls: Tape Speed, Feedback, Echo Volume, plus Treble and Bass controls for tonal sculpting.

If the warmth of a real tape delay wasn't enough, the EF-X3 also contains a true, analog BBD chorus effect, with front panel Rate and Depth controls plus an on/off switch. Use the balanced input on the rear or the front panel guitar/line input with a beautifully crunchy FET preamp for tasteful saturation. Control the Feedback and Delay Speed with control voltage, or plug in footswitches to remotely control the EF-X3. Each of the 4 heads have an independent output on the back of the unit for mixing fun.

Echo Fix is the modern gold standard for analog tape delay and with their EF-X3 White Edition it's sure to brighten up your studio aesthetics.
