Universal Audio UAFX Galaxy '74 Tape Echo and Reverb Pedal

The Universal Audio UAFX Galaxy '74 faithfully recreates the iconic Roland Space Echo tape delay, delivering authentic analog-style tape saturation and spacious spring reverb. The delay effect produces warm repeats with accurately modeled wow, flutter, and signal degradation. The top row of knobs features standard Rate, Feedback, and Volume controls, while a Main/Alt switch gives access to Bass, Treble, and Tape Age controls. The three-position Head switch, along with doubled delay times and a tap tempo feature, makes it possible to create rhythmic subdivisions not possible on the original unit. 

Galaxy ‘74’s Reverb section adds lush, cavernous reverberation modeled after the original unit’s analog spring reverb tank, and the Dwell control adds even more spaciousness. Thanks to the dual stereo processing engines, you’re free to combine echo and reverb effects in series or parallel. The dual footswitches allow you to independently bypass the Echo and Reverb sections as well as control the Tap Tempo function. 

The UAFX Control app unlocks Galaxy ‘74’s full potential by letting you tweak footswitch settings, adjust realtime effects, and customize unique oscillation sounds. The app also provides preset management, firmware updates, and more. Silent switching and buffered bypass provide seamless toggling and effect switching without pops or other artifacts, making the pedal a good choice for live performance.
