TRANSISTOR
Based on* the Maestro
®
EP-3.
After introducing the tube-based EP-1 and EP-2 tape echo marvels, Maestro introduced the solid-state EP-3, with transistors instead of tubes for the sound
electronics. The EP-3 uses the same basic mechanical design as the original Echoplex, including the looped 1/4" tape, but does not have the tube distortion
sound of the EP-1. EP-3s contributed to many classic recordings of the 70s. Eddie Van Halen and Jimmy Page were both avid EP-3 users.
This MkII model incarnation includes enhanced realism, and offers up more of that coveted EP-3 tape saturation. As you reduce the TWEAK knob, the headroom
drops, warming the tone up with some pleasant grit. Use the TWEEZ knob to dial in some tape wow & flutter.
TWEAK adjusts the Headroom. Range: –15.2dB to +8.8dB.
TWEEZ adjusts Treble cut or boost. Range: –15.2dB to +8.8dB.
COSMOS
Based on* the Roland

Space Echo RE-201
In 1974 Roland introduced its third iteration of the Space Echo, preceded by the RE-100 (see the "MULTI-HEAD" Legacy model) and the RE-200.
This unit added a spring reverb and additional EQ to its uniquely quirky analog, motor-driven, multi-head design.
Use the TWEEZ knob to select the machine record heads 1 through 3 that are active, to create different tapped delay patterns. The TWEEZ
knob does double-duty—your repeats are most clear set at minimum and as you turn the knob to the right, more wow & flutter is added and
the feedback tone darkens.
TWEAK selects active Heads: 1, 2, 3, 1+3, 2+3, or 1+2+3.
TWEEZ adjusts both Wow & Flutter (increases to the right), and Feedback Tone (decreases to the right).
MULTI PASS
A Line 6 original.
This multi-tap style delay is infused with automatic filtering, for somewhat of a sweeping, synth type effect. There are eight different "tap patterns," select-
able via the TWEAK knob. These patterns each yield different combinations of band pass frequency sweeps, which add interesting, angular rhythm movements to your playing. Use
the TWEEZ knob to choose between two different sonic emulation Modes—Delay for a shiny digital character, or Echo for a bit darker, saturated tape vibe.
TWEAK chooses from among eight Tap Patterns.
TWEEZ adjusts the Mode between Delay or Echo.
