Echo Fix EF-X2 Tape Echo with Spring Reverb and DSP Reverb/Chorus - Blue
Classic tape delay effects unit with vintage EP guitar pre-amp, real spring reverb and DSP digital reverb - includes 2 spare loops and one loaded in the unit for 3 total
A classic effect, built for modern users - the Echo Fix EF-X2 Tape Echo couples the sounds you know and love, with features and reliability unimaginable in the past. In designing the EF-X2, the team at Echo Fix began with the knowledge and insight gained from their work as the world's foremost experts in spare parts, servicing and repairing vintage tape echo units. Put simply, they know how tape echos should sound and operate.
Echo Fix spent three years prototyping, rigorously testing, and meticulously designing in secret - while accounting for every possible application. They couldn't find a new production motor good enough so they made their own and invested in the latest high tech machinery to custom balance them in house. They also could not find tape heads that sounded good enough so they had custom tape heads manufactured to exact specs.
One of the other important things when it comes to reliable tape echo operation is the tape loop. Echo Fix thoroughly researched tape and have a tape formulation that not only lasts a very long time but sounds incredible as well, that is how far they were willing to go to make the EF-X2 reliable and sound great!
The result is a warm sounding tape echo with a modern feature set that is at home in the professional recording studio, live guitar rig, bedroom production setup or in any other context you can dream up, the EF-X2 will become an integral part of your creative process.
FEATURES:
Four core functions - Tape echo, Real Spring Reverb, DSP Reverb/Chorus and Preamp
Vintage FET EP Guitar Preamp and Modern FET Line Input Pre-amp both with 1Meg Impedance perfect for guitar giving you two pre-amp tones and allowing for use of an ABY pedal (not included) to switch between both pre-amps
DSP Reverb and Spring Reverb blend setting also allows Spring Reverb and Chorus blend
Switch that converts the reverb section to chorus allowing you to switch back and forth from Reverb to Chorus effect
Independent inputs (and level controls) for Instrument-level and Line-level applications, plus balanced input and output at rear

Adjust the echo's Time and Feedback with Control Voltages (CV 0-5 volts) and compatible Expression Pedals
Bass and Treble control of the echo signal
Motor ON/Switch for tape slow down effect - or to conserve tape when only using the EF-X2's reverb or preamp
Mute the reverb or echo signal with a dual foot switch pedal

Built tough to last by someone who has repaired and upgraded more tape echo units than you can possibly imagine!

This tape delay is everything I had anticipated and even more. I believe Echo Fix has built a new standard. Highly recommended for anyone thinking about a top quality tape delay.
Keeping up with current guitar pedal releases can sometimes seem like a full-time job, there are just so many innovative brands who keep pushing the envelope and finding new ways to recreate classics. We wouldn't trade this embarrassment of riches for the world and that's why we put together a new video featuring our choices for the hottest pedals and effects of 2020 so far.
Our list starts with the Vongon Paragraphs, an outstanding analog four-pole resonant low pass filter pedal that has been flying off the shelves for the company. Next, the legendary Shin-Ei line is back, and we're talking specifically about the picture-perfect fuzz of the Companion. Rounding out the pedal selections on our list, Strymon discontinued its long-time compression option in the OB-1, but it's now back with the impeccable Compadre. Continue reading →
As a trusted resource of repairs for over decade, Echo Fix has certainly established themselves as the go-to when your tape echo machine has gone haywire. So it makes sense that the Australian company would go even further down the prototyping, testing, and design rabbit hole to create their own take on the classic tape echo.
The resulting Tape Echo EF-X2 is nothing short of stunning. This unit has an extremely deep feature set, which starts with four basic functions; tape echo, real spring reverb, DSP reverb/chorus and preamp. From there, the possibilities to tweak and develop creative sounds are endless. Continue reading →

This was my first experience buying something from Vintage King (although I surf the "used" categories on the website frequently!), and, despite being on the other side of the world, I had absolutely no trouble and everything went very smoothly.
