echo will be versus the input signal, and allows Tap Tempo. A short delay time and low feedback
setting will give you a classic “slap back” delay. Longer delay times give you a distinctly separate echo,
and higher feedback settings increase the number of echoes. There’s always a MIX control, and each
of the Models has a few other controls as well....

Analog Delay w/Modulation
The Analog Delay w/ Modulation model is based on* the
Electro-Harmonix® Deluxe Memory Man which is a pedal
that uses the “bucket brigade” electronics of other analog
echoes, and adds a chorus circuit to boot. This adjustable
chorus is applied to the echoes only, leaving the direct sound
unaffected. The Memory Man, with its warm, distorted tone
and swimming echoes, became an important tool for many
guitarists, and was an essential part of the guitar sounds for
the first U2 album. Part of the Deluxe in Deluxe Memory Man
was the increased delay time of 500 milliseconds. Analog w/
Mod emulates that classic Memory Man tone with the added
advantage of 2 seconds of delay time. The mod speed and depth controls set up the chorus on the
delays.

Tube Echo
The classic 1963 Maestro® EP-1 was the first of a series of “Echoplex®”
designs distributed by the company, and made by Harris-Teller in Chicago.
As touted in a Maestro advertisement, the Echoplex’s “...special effects
range all the way from a controlled high speed reverberation to a full,
throbbing echo”! The main feature of the Echoplex design is a special
cartridge of looped 1/4-inch audio tape that wraps past separate record
and playback heads. The position of the playback head can be moved to
adjust the delay time from 60 to 650 milliseconds. Tube Echo is based on*
the classic Echoplex tone with the extra advantage of up to 2 seconds of
delay time. DRIVE lets you dial up some tube warmth like the original
and FLUTTER (short for wow and flutter) adds that unique sound of a
slipping, dirty tape capstan!
