Built by the company that designed the original, this advanced pedal captures the RE-201’s magic in flawless detail, from the magnetic tape and motor properties to the vibrant spring reverb and colorful preamp circuit. And to take things even further, they’ve expanded the vintage Space Echo experience with lots of new features tuned for today’s music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eTape Echo Magic\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTape echo was the first delay effect and one of the first effect processors available for electronic musicians. In contrast with today’s CPU-based digital units, a tape echo is a simple machine that uses a motor to pull magnetic tape across one or more record\/playback heads. Warm, full, and dynamic, the tape echo sound is influenced by many factors. The ever-changing input level colors the sound with varying amounts of tape saturation and compression. In addition, motor speed fluctuations, friction, wow and flutter, and other elements introduce an appealing modulated character that’s subtle and continually evolving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eRE-201 Space Echo: Simply Legendary\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RE-201 was a benchmark Roland product and one of the leading tape echo units of its era. It featured three evenly spaced heads that produced a wider range of echo effects than typical single-head designs, plus an innovative free-running tape system that provided superior performance with minimal tape wear. Grab-and-go controls enabled quick access to clean, single delays or various head combinations for dense, rhythmic echoes. A spring reverb tank was included too, making the RE-201 a one-stop shop for quality ambience effects. Last but not least, analog preamp circuitry was another key ingredient in the Space Echo’s rich sonic recipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eA Masterpiece Reborn\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRealized through the latest technologies and exhaustive analysis of several vintage RE-201s—including a pristine original unit from the BOSS and Roland factory archive—the RE-202 brings the complete Space Echo experience to life in a versatile modern pedal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhile previous BOSS designs captured the true sonic flavor and essential characteristics of the Space Echo, new advancements have allowed us to go much deeper than ever before. With the RE-202, BOSS engineers have fully reproduced all the complex, non-linear behaviors that contribute to the RE-201’s immortal character. Everything that influences the sound was carefully examined and recreated with all-new algorithms, including the tape path, record\/playback mechanism, motor variations, preamp coloration, tape age, spring reverb character, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eRetro Sound at Your Fingertips\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RE-202 delivers the full vintage vibe of the RE-201—without the need for regular tape replacement and hardware maintenance. All the core controls of the original are here, including the iconic 12-position mode selector. Every behavior is replicated with complete accuracy, such as the gradual pitch change that occurs when the Repeat Rate knob is tweaked, or the cool runaway feedback that happens when the Intensity knob is maxed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith selectable tape age and variable controls, you can dial in everything from a brand-new Space Echo to the worn character and quirks of a well-loved vintage piece. The Saturation control has been carefully calibrated based on the actual magnetic tape and preamp behaviors of the RE-201, with the sound becoming warmer and more compressed as you turn up the knob. And with the expressive Wow \u0026amp; Flutter control, you can conjure all the natural modulation characteristics that are essential to the Space Echo sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSonic Enhancements\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RE-202 includes many new features that extend the Space Echo for today’s musicians. Twice the delay time is available, along with a fourth virtual tape head that unlocks five additional sound combinations. There’s also an echo type that changes the distance between the heads, something not possible with the original. In contrast with the mono RE-201, the RE-202 provides true stereo I\/O and selectable operation for guitar or line-level devices. For the dry sound, you can choose between the warm and fat RE-201 preamp tone or a clean signal with zero processing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso included is a stereo version of the original spring reverb sound from the RE-201, along with hall, plate, room, and ambience types for additional versatility. Expressive Warp and Twist effects are available as well, allowing you to launch the sound into outer space with the press of a footswitch while performing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSampling Frequency: 48 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAD Conversion\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cul\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e24 bits + AF method\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eAF method (Adaptive Focus method) This is a proprietary method from Roland \u0026amp; BOSS that vastly improves the signal-to-noise (SN) ratio of the AD converter.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDA Conversion: 32 bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eProcessing: 32-bit floating point\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eModes: 12 modes\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMemory: 127 + Manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNominal Input Level - INPUT A\/MONO, INPUT B: -10 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaximum Input Level - INPUT A\/MONO, INPUT B: +7 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eInput Impedance - INPUT A\/MONO, INPUT B: 1 M ohm\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNominal Output Level - OUTPUT A\/MONO, OUTPUT B: -10 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaximum Output Level - OUTPUT A\/MONO, OUTPUT B: +7 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eOutput Impedance - OUTPUT A\/MONO, OUTPUT B: 1 k ohm\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eRecommended Load Impedance - OUTPUT A\/MONO, OUTPUT B: 10 k ohms or greater\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eBypass: Buffered bypass\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eControls\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cul\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eON\/OFF switch, MEMORY switch, TAP switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eSATURATION knob, WOW \u0026amp; FLUTTER knob, MODE SELECTOR knob, BASS knob, TREBLE knob, REVERB VOL knob, REPEAT RATE knob, INTENSITY knob, ECHO VOL knob\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eMEMORY button, INPUT button, TAPE button\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eConnectors\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cul\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eINPUT A\/MONO jack, INTPUT B jack, OUTPUT A\/MONO jack, OUTPUT B jack: 1\/4-inch phone type\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eCTL 1, 2\/EXP jack: 1\/4-inch TRS phone type\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eMIDI (IN, OUT) jacks: Stereo miniature phone type\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eDC IN jack\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eUSB port: USB micro B-type (program update only)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePower Supply: AC adaptor\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCurrent Draw: 140 mA\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDimensions\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cul\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e192 (W) x 133 (D) x 52 (H) mm \/ 7-9\/16 (W) x 5-15\/64 (D) x 2-3\/64 (H) inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e192 (W) x 133 (D) x 53 (H) mm \/ 7-9\/16 (W) x 5-15\/64 (D) x 2-3\/32 (H) inches (including rubber foot)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eWeight (including battery)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cul\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e860 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e1 lb 15 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAccessories\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cul\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eAC adaptor\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eOwner's Manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eLeaflet (\"USING THE UNIT SAFELY,\" \"IMPORTANT NOTES,\" and \"Information\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eRubber foot\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\n\nManufacturer: Boss\u003cbr\u003eModel: RE-202\u003cbr\u003eSKU: I701722-GA260918-7-WHXD\u003cbr\u003eUPC: 761294519011\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWe are Chuck Levin's Washington Music Center\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince 1958, Chuck Levin’s Washington Music Center has been the trusted destination for musicians and audio professionals across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
