Gibson Musical Instruments is pleased to be the name behind the long awaited return of the renowned Echoplex product. The reintroduction of this much sought after unit is faithful to the original version in every possible detail and allows for some of the most imaginative effects available for live or studio use.
The Oberheim Echoplex is an enormously powerful 19" rack mountable effects unit that encompasses digital recording, sampling and digital delay. With a total of 198 seconds of memory time on-board (16mb), the capability to layer up to nine loops at once, Tap Tempo and a host of other features, the Echoplex is limited only by imagination. As a live performance tool for the creative instrumentalist, or a ingenious device in the studio, the Echoplex opens up all manner of sonic opportunities, allowing you to explore ambient soundscapes, reversed loops and rhythmic drones to your heart's content.
