A deluxe version of the legendary Maestro Echoplex.
The Catalinbread Belle Epoch Deluxe is a user-friendly, digital incarnation that pays homage to the sought after Maestro Echoplex EP-3 tape delay.
The Catalinbread Belle Epoch Deluxe features a modern version of every functional part of the EP-3.
All circuitry is faithfully reproduced and fine-tuned from the original EP-3 specifications (down to its famous preamp).
The only thing missing are the record and playback heads, with a 24-bit high-fidelity digital delay line taking the place of the tape.
All-discrete, through-hole construction with orange drop capacitors, carbon composition resistors, germanium diodes, and other premium parts.
And while Vintage EP-3's required significant maintenance, you won't have to worry about that with the Belle Epoch Deluxe!
Catalinbread Belle Epoch Deluxe Delay Pedal features:
• Faithful digital re-creation of the original EP-3 Tape delay units.
• Discrete preamp improves your guitar tone from low-volume cleans to saturated fuzz.
• Depth knob for setting the depth of the modulation.
• Record Level control determines how hard the virtual 'tape' is hit.
• Echo Sustain lets you decide how much delay signal to feed back into the delay line.
• Echo Delay controls delay time: set it anywhere within the EP-3's original 80 - 800ms range.
• Expression pedal input for pedal control of delay time, playback volume, filter sweep, or rotary speed.
• True Bypass (Trails mode also available).
• Power: 9V DC.
• Current Draw: 200mA.
• Dimensions: 2.4" x 4.68" x 3.66".
