This week's video: Part 2 of 3 in our Belle Epoch vs Echoplex EP-3 series. An in depth overview of control surface parameters on the Catalinbread Belle Epoch and how it was designed to act and sound just like an Echoplex EP-3!
Just a few nuggets of information in this video:
How to Use Delay: recreate the slapback on an Echoplex.
How to Use Record Level and Mix: dial in your sound. They're analogous to a Record Level trim pot and Echo Volume (Mix on Belle Epoch). Record Level on an Echoplex sets how hard you hit tape essentially getting your recording level set to optimize your signal to noise ratio. By hitting the tape harder or less hard you get different sounds and textures, and determine where the echo can sit in relation to your dry guitar. As Record Level attenuates, it hits the virtual tape softer making wispy repeats. As it is turned up, it saturates more and your low end goes up, contributing to head bumps.
Stay tuned next week for part 3!
