In this Belle Epoch Deluxe introduction Howard's explains the design process and circuitry of the Belle Epoch Deluxe and Epoch Pre. The new Belle Epoch Deluxe will give you a bigger, warmer, and more dimensional sound. Howard reproduced the circuit of the EP-3 exactly, mirroring the schematic of the Echoplex with the same power supply, preamp, record amplifier, playback amplifier, mixer stage, and feedback loop. The only difference is that there is no record or playback head. In its place is a digital delay line. The Belle Epoch Deluxe is the closest thing you'll get to a vintage EP-3 without the tape! Belle Epoch Deluxe does not compromise on sound!
The video also touches on some of the sounds capable using the 6 Echo Programs available on the Belle Epoch Deluxe and expression pedal function!
