Description

Transport your sound to the golden age of tape echo with the Mr. Black Tapex 2 Stereophonic Tape Echo. This pedal is a homage to classic tape machines, delivering rich, vintage-style delay tones with modern versatility. Designed for musicians who appreciate both nostalgia and innovation, the Tapex 2 captures the intricate nuances of worn tape machines while offering a clean, hi-fidelity simulation.

With its pure analog pre-amps and true-stereo inputs and outputs, the Tapex 2 ensures your sound remains vibrant and authentic. The pedal features two distinct modes: "Choice" for pristine echoes and "Damaged I" for those gritty, character-filled delays reminiscent of well-loved vintage gear. Its intuitive design includes a preset Save/Recall function, allowing you to easily switch between your favorite settings mid-performance.

The Tapex 2 is equipped with expression control and tap-tempo inputs, offering dynamic control over delay parameters. Whether you're crafting ambient soundscapes or adding subtle depth to your solos, this pedal's complimentary ping-pong echo effect and organic modulation will elevate your playing to new heights. Compact yet powerful, the Tapex 2 is an essential addition to any pedalboard.

  • Pure analog pre-amps and output drivers
  • True-Stereo inputs and outputs
  • 43mS - 808mS delay time range
  • Two modes: Choice (clean) & Damaged I (worn)
  • Trailing repeats on bypass
