About: Tape echo   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

A type of delay line which uses an endless loop of magnetic recording tape (or other magnetic media) to produce the delay. Typically, a loop of tape passes across a record head, where the source material is recorded onto the tape; then as the tape progresses through the mechanism, at some point later it passes a playback head where the recorded signal is reproduced. Some of the playback signal is then fed back to the record head, mixed with the source material, to produce a repeating echo that diminishes each time it repeats.

These devices were popular in the 1960s and '70s, when competing all-solid-state technologies were too expensive to be affordable to most musicians. The two best-known models were the Maestro Echoplex, and the Roland Space Echo.
