Echo Fix EF-X3R Tape Echo Black

After the successful release of the EF-X2, the EF-X3R is the latest offering in Echo Fix’s line of

tape delays. Built by the same team to the highest quality, this new machine includes many of

our most requested features and builds on the momentum and trust gained after 3 years of

making the EF-X2.

One difference is that the new model comes with an Analog BBD (Bucket Brigade Device)

Chorus & Analog Spring Reverb, so the EF-X3R boasts a 100% analog signal path.

„Direct Head Outputs“ allows for individual outputs for each head offer flexibility never-before-

seen in a tape echo, with the ability to achieve a classic Stereo Ping-Pong delay effect by

panning each head externally.

The new „auto tape stop“ circuit extends tape life and thus creates unmatched reliability.

At Echo Fix the same team is keeping tape echos alive for 15 years now. Making their own

models let the standards only rise. Rest assured that this machine will be the most capable,

reliable tape echo on the market, supported by a team with some of the best customer service

in the industry.

If you’ve been in a room with an Echo Fix device, you’ll know what is meant by this. Used as an

effect, they simply make everything sound better. But turn up the echo volume, dial in some

feed-back and watch as our unit self-oscillates into life and becomes an instrument more than

an effect. The EF-X3R will change the way you make music.
