What we say:

At A Glance:

The Catalinbread Belle Epoch Deluxe Black and Silver Tape Echo updates the classic delay pedal's design to feature a timeless black on silver casing. This pedal has rightly gained a lot of recognition for being a faithful version of an iconic vintage delay. The original tape delay pedals of the 60s and 70s were loved not just for their delay effect, but also for how the unit changed your tone. The Belle Epoch Deluxe uses the same signal path and preamps as the originals, but adds a digital delay chip in place of the tape heads to give you that authentic tone, without the fuss of having to deal with tape wearing out. With extra controls added compared to what the vintage original had, the Belle Epoch Deluxe is extremely versatile and gives you beautiful dream-like sounds.

Features We Love:

Tape Delay

The Belle Epoch Deluxe realistically recreates the classic sound of analog tape delay. While your average digital delay will offer precise and lossless audio that simply repeats your sound identically until it fades out, a tape delay will add artefacts like filtering and compression and tape irregularities like wow and flutter. It's an incredibly distinctive sound that's a key part of dub music and has been adopted by many guitarists including Andy Summers, Tommy Bolin and Johnny Greenwood.

Expanded Controls

The 6 control pots allow you to achieve your desired sound with ease. The Mix control is particularly useful, making sure that it blends well in any situation. The Belle Epoch Deluxe also includes an Oscillation button that instantly kicks the pedal into self-oscillation mode, which is incredibly fun!

With an Expression Pedal

Using the Expression input you can control the delay time using a wah style expression pedal or the new Catalinbread CB Tap pedal that lets you match the delay to your songs BPM.

Highlights:

  • Authentic analog tape style delay
  • Expressive control over your delay
  • Can also be used for gain, compression and modulation effects
