Roland Space Echo tape delay and spring reverb in one pedal. The Universal Audio UAFX Galaxy '74 Tape Echo & Reverb delivers the legendary sound of the mid-1970s Roland RE-201 Space Echo — including its built-in spring reverb — in a stereo UAFX pedal with full MIDI control.

At a Glance

Overview

The Roland RE-201 Space Echo is one of the most-recorded delay units in history — a tape echo with built-in spring reverb that defined the sound of reggae, dub, prog rock, and decades of psychedelic guitar tone. Galaxy '74 captures both the tape echo and the spring reverb, running them simultaneously and independently (delay can be wet/dry-controlled separately from reverb). UAFX 2.0 adds MIDI control and four on-pedal presets to the already-flagship pedal.
