Great Tape Delay Tones Part 2: Fulltone TTE vs Pedals -That Pedal Show
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 чер 2024
- Following our show on real tape delays, we’re getting in to some of our fave Echoplex / single-head-type sounds.
Life too short for long UA-cam videos? ‘Interesting bits and go-to sections’ info below.
COVID-19: This video was filmed long before the social distancing measures advised by various governments. We are of course following the proper guidelines at this time.
Be well y’all!
Dan and I recently fired up a Fulltone TTE, Roland RE-201 Space Echo, EchoFix EF-X2 and Hiwatt Custom Tape Echo to orientate ourselves around some lovely tape echo sounds.
In this follow up we listen to some single-head sounds in the style of the Fulltone, which is descended from the Maestro Echoplex lineage. Echoplexes varied greatly of course depending on model and era, so pinning down 'one sound' to chase is not the purpose of the exercise. Nevertheless we’ve chosen a bunch of modern pedals that do the 'tape thing'. And yes, we're only doing single-head sounds today: multi-heads can come later.
Once we’ve had a listen to some pedals, we then delve a little deeper into what a tape delay is actually doing to try to recreate it with other pedals.
Enjoy the episode!

Normal person: "I just want one pedal that can do a variety of sounds well."
Dan: "I built an entire pedalboard to replicate one pedal."
...Legendary.
🤓👍
Don't forget Joey Landreth having one seperate board for a section in one song! Legend.
The thing that sucks about having one pedal that does many things is having to constantly reset it in a live setting.
And this is why we love them! yes legendary!!
It's funny that people say there is too much talking because I actually prefer the talking and explaining of how things work. But I guess you can't please everyone. Hope you're staying safe. Cheers.
I'm generally in the same boat. The more educational episodes are my favourite.
Thanks Chris. I think that along with a decent proportion of the TPS audience, you’re here to help your own journey. I think the people who moan about the talking are those who just want us to tell them the destination. As we know, that is not how this works! We’re very, very proud to have you as our fam!
Agreed. Where would we be without Dan's brill explanations, exclamations & diagrams and Mick's moans & tangents? Nowhere, that's where. This show goes to 12.
I especially love the tangents. Everybody does pedal demos but you guys stand above the rest by being two well informed friends shooting the shit about the the things you love. Stop watching the clock and follow whatever thoughts and tangents the show takes you.
@@ThatPedalShow Exactly! The journey is what is exciting. I am proud TPS Fam member.
Never, ever apologise for a long show ever again. Please. There’s really no need. 😘
Today I learned that my favourite delay pedal is 7 different pedals totalling more than $2000.
😅😅 that's actually true!! I think a trick overlooked is to get the right reverb and delay to work together really well!
Today I learned 7 different pedals totaling £2000 sound almost as good as a £400 Volante.
You can get a real tape delay for less than that.
You can pick up an old copicat for much less
Hahahahaha!!!!!
Now I know why tape echo is so captivating: it's a microcosm of all the effects you could have on a board. Aside from the obvious timely replication of delay, it also has gain staging, compression, tone shaping, modulation. (Pitch or octave is maybe the only effect not present.) Thanks for spelling that circuit out on its own board!
well, a clever EE can put most any modular synth circuit into a pedal (or vice-versa into the synth) with the right impedance and signal level,
so there's still lots more:
Sequencing (some Zvex, Moog MuRF do a little), more-extensive-than-fuzz Waveshaping , Envelope followers controlling more than just auto-wah, frequency shifting (NOT pitch-shifting, check out the "Bode Shifter" it's incredible), multimode filters/ fixed filter-bank/vocoder, ringmodulator and balanced (thru-zero + linear) FM, additive synthesis, Karpluss-Strong ("pitched" delay), bit-reduction, granular "glitch" sampling, more sophisticated PLL apps than Miku stomp, etc. Some play well with a guitar better than others, and some are better suited to mix processing rather than printing the effect while the part is recorded. I've yet to try half of it so far, myself.
^^ An Empress Zoia is probably the cheapest path to getting your brain wet with a fair number of these functions/effects,^^ to some degree or another :)
btw, "modulation" is an automated sweep of a pot by means of a control oscillator or envelope;, not an effect per se
OMG - the deconstruction of a pedal into its component elements is an inspired format. Can you PLEASE have this a regular feature, in its own right. Make a chorus out of delay pedals. Make a Klone from voltage doublers and gain stages. Make a univibe by standing in a dark room with 4 torches. Much respect.
Please stop apologising for making long videos. You guys can keep going for as long as you need to. It never gets boring. Thanks for another amazing episode and for making furloughed fridays great.
Dan is an absolute genius. The tape delay recreated using pedals sounded incredible!
He was right, it did blow my mind!
If you want to try this on your own, I highly recommend the source audio nemesis delay. Plug in the USB cable and use their computer software. It's got 100 presets you can save into and adjustments for days. I much prefer their interface to the one tc electronic has. Own both and use both.
@@powdermnky007
absolutely the best delay pedal i've ever seen. The guitarist in the band i play in has one and even though it took a while to get the mojo fully flowing, he's a wizard with it now.
I play bass and in my sansamp fx loop i have the devin townsend Ocean Machine which is also amazing but a totally different kind of trippy!
@@powdermnky007 I managed to do it with a Korg dl8000 multitap delay. Put 8 times on that thing
Consider this idea for a moment:
Once a month or so, put together a crazy signal chain. Pull some stuff off the wall and see what happens. What do 5 choruses sound like together? I'm sure you can both dream up amazing pedal interactions and feedback loops with use of Wetter boxes. New sounds await you!
MBV and Cocteau Twins gave us sonic palettes that didn't exist before, just by exploring new combinations. Who knows what could happen!
It could be a once a month disaster, or it could be awe inspiring. Either way, I'm certain it would be good fun.
The tape delay episode you did in 2016 still is a staple for me. Hearing those repeats, even recorded and over UA-cam, made me want to go down this rabbit hole.
From someone that has watched every video (more than once), The ‘making of’ the delay in the middle is my favourite part of any TPS video ever. Amazing to see it broke down and explained in such detail!
The recreation of what a tape delay does using individual single function pedals is the best thing I’ve ever seen on a gear video. Absolutely loved seeing that and it now makes so much sense.
If Dan had been my Physics teacher at Skool I’m sure I could have been a genius. As it was, I mixed with kids like Mick and my physics teacher was insane. I’ve been shovelling s**t ever since. Thanks guys; this was proper brilliant, entertaining and educational. Please don’t stop doing what you do together....
First off, this is a “Show” and I love the fact that you guys talk and don’t just play constantly. This is the best show on UA-cam. Thanks for what you guys do! Love it!
Ah, cheers Nick 🤓👍
Fancy seeing you here Nick
You fellas are making this quarantine thing so much more bearable. Your joy over gear is more infectious than Covid. Never thought I cared how a tape delay works but that was immeasurably fascinating. Thanks for keeping the work flowing.
As a long time viewer one of the biggest reasons I have stuck around is the way ya’ll go into depth. I took the knowledge I have learned and made a Helix work at church for about a year until I got my GB hotrod deluxe. Thanks for your show about being disconnected. One is defiantly great for recording at home. The other I can’t turn on at home HA . Thank you for everything.
i highly reccomend getting a poweramp and cab for use with your helix, it'll make the world of difference to the "amp in room" sound, i can't even begin to describe. or, if you're somewhere you can be loud, plug straight into the effects return of your fender from your helix. just some things to think about, also using pedals as well as the helix is another world of fun
People will always find something to complain about, if they want to complain. Make the show that you want to make, fellas. You can't please everyone. Keep up the great work!
Thanks for the content TPS. So far during this lockdown my baby daughter has been born and I've lost my grandad to this virus. It's been a total rollercoaster of emotions. Thank you for keeping me company during late night feeds and giving me something to distract me from moping about. You've really done me a solid. Cheers dudes.
Wowsers. Congrats and condolences all at once Jacob. Thanks for being with us!
I'm watching this vid and I just want to shout "Turn the tape age knob on the El Cap'". You said a new tape in a real tape machine sounds really clean, that's how you have the El Cap' set! Knob bottom left 'tape age'. Great show by the way 😉
And this is the reason I have 16 pedals on my board! Everything you add makes a change to the character of the tone!
This could be your best episode yet. Dan’s Dan-o-plex is an outstanding achievement,
I love these shows! I'm currently designing an analog delay pedal in 2024 and this was great ;-)
If you are a delay nutcase, the concept of the lego delay is really attractive. Imagine the joy of swapping out the compressors, the pitch modulators ... glorious, absolutely glorious!
the thing with TPS is that you talk about details and I learned a lot from you two.
From gain stacking, compression, EQ, dynamics, boosts, amps, etc.. I knew what I felt when I was hating or enjoying my tone but watching you every week made me understand why I enjoy or hate and how to make it sound better. Thanks!
this was just OUTSTANDING ..!
great sounds, and phrasing..great tones. .great contraptions.. great fun.
i actually prefer these long episodes.
thanks so much,
kudos, from Portugal
If someone doesn't like the talking, watch something else!!! You guys are great, and the talking is a huge reason why so many of us love the show... Keep up the great work!...This is an informative and entertainment combo!!!
Ape into El Cap for me. Love when Dan goes into "Mad Scientist" mode. This episode was Epic. Lots of thought and hard work - but loads of fun.
Michael Caz that would be epic
Fantastic run through. The talk, the playing the opinions and analysis are all top-notch and do a great service to guitar-nerds and tone-seekers everywhere. 40 years of playing and I still always enjoy listening to any sort of tone talk. Thanks guys this was a great episode.
this has to be the best explanation of a delaycircut ever. thank you for this epic show!
Best thing to happen this week. What a sound and really fun to learn about all the parts of the delay. Genuinely brought a smile when it all came together!
Thanks for all the great content during these crazy times. It’s much needed and helps a lot to get the mind in a better place! Stay safe and with good tones my friends!
Dan's exploded delay model may very well be the coolest thing I've ever seen on TPS.
I can't speak on behalf of everybody, but I'm sure that we would all like to say thank you guys so much for giving us your time and dedication to make these shows for us every week, especially now. I've been following you guys for years now and have always enjoyed your content. I have never met Mick before but I got to meet Dan back in summer at a Phil X Clinic at Guitarguitar in Camden And it was really nice to see his Enthusiasm for Tele's in the Store!. I moved to Bulgaria about a month after and always look forward the the shows you all put on for us. Right, back to practicing..... :)
I love how Dan's brain works. That was the perfect way to breakdown what's happening in a delay circuit. Cheers guys
As always, learned something and had a good time doing it. Thanks for all the work and good cheer you put into your shows.
I would argue you just created the best sounding "delay-pedal" in the TPS history! 😄 I love the nerdery level we are in to now, this is GOLD! 🥰 Btw,you cant talk "too much". When you do what you love, we love it. Keep it on gents. Great show!!
Dan is brilliant with this stuff, and a great educator. Bravo. That was phenomenal. I'm gobsmacked.
EDIT: I will get a lottery ticket and if I win, I want to buy Dan's "Crazy Contraption Delay-Board". Seriously.
dan's lego delay replication segment was fantastic. I learnt so much from it about what actually happens in delay. Fascinating stuff!
Bloody hell Dan.. just got to the section where you made the tape circuit in pedals... all I’ve got in my head is that scene from The Martian where he says “ I’m going to science the shit out of this” 😀
Hahahahahah
We don't deserve Dan.
That was great! I love how you can surprise yourselves even after so many episodes - well well done, Dan!
Dan, you mad beautiful bugger! You stole the show with your deconstructed delay board - one of the coolest things I've ever seen. Thank you for the efforts you guys go to - so far above and beyond. Bravo!
Fascinating explanation of the signal path and how the blooms, swells, and decays within these units happen. Mind blowing. Thanks fellers.
Yeah, Dan's "tape delay" board is my favorite sound in this episode. Especially that dirty slap Outlaw Blues kinda thing Mick was doing with it.....killer killer killer. Thanks for your endless curiosity, gents. You do the hard (and quite expensive) work for the rest of us. Been watching for a year and a half and it just never gets old. Thanks for everything, dudes.
When you play the Fulltone at the intro I melt. Then you go through all the other pedals and they sound great. Then again you play the Fulltone and I melt. There’s something magic in there that even mega obsessive genius modern pedal makers can’t achieve.
Never apologize for long videos. Love you guys.
MORE LEGO BOARDS! Obviously every effect type isn't replicable, but I love love LOVE this concept and would love to see it in some more shows. So cool to see all the elements laid out in an easy to see format, and infinitely tweakable as well. Great show lads! Looking forward to next week, stay well. Cheers!
I LOVED part 2 of this. Reminds me of a lot of the effect stacking I do in DAWs to get different sounds without needing to keep getting new plugins.
More effect breakdowns like this in the future would be a real treat.
How many people are gonna replace their delay pedal with an entire “delay” board now? Imagine the possibilities! Ultimate control!
This was effing fantastic. Dan's "makeshift recreation" sounded incredible. I mean, they're all incredible, but I was truly blown away by the process and sounds that were achieved using the diamond as the modulation in part two. Bravo gents 👏👏👏. Love youuuuuuuuuuuu!!!
-Aaron
Fascinating!!! Kudos to Dan for his echo contraption!!! A really beautiful episode!!!
That delay circuit of pedals Dan put together is the craziest and the most special thing I've ever seen on this show. Thank you so much for making this and sharing it with us.
Dans lego board layout helped me understand how delay works SO much! It even helped me understand why the APE only wants a single delay fed into it. Awesome stuff as usual.
I knew, when you guys made a whole entire pedalboard delay pedal, that you are my people. You guys are great, absolutely fantastic! Stay healthy and keep jamming!
Cheers from Buffalo, NY, USA!
Great show guys! Maybe your best show yet on delay effects!
Watching your show [and JHS and Wampler channels] for years now, hearing Dan talk about circuits and wax philosophic about delay, I feel like I knew a lot of what you covered today. But it was SO clarifying to see it all laid out on the board that Dan built and hearing everything back-to-back-to-back! I feel like I have a much better grasp now on EXACTLY what I am looking for in my next delay pedal.
Thanks for keeping us thinking about Tone instead of the News!
This is the coolest video and I’m not even done watching. One take away: get a digital delay with an effect loop for the repeats and stick a compressor/chorus/eq in the loop!
Sorry this comment isn't about the video, but as the newest one there is a chance you might see it. I came here via a recommendation on another Greg Koch video about your interview with him, and loved it. Watched a few more here. Was expecting (from the title and the internet) some internet warrior type "if it ain't a £1K boutique pedal it's rubbish, get your cable polarity correct" tone snobbery, and got a glorious, pleasant hour with two knowledgable people who appreciate the whole price spectrum. You've gained a subscriber.
Awesome! Welcome Von, it’s great to see you here. We can’t promise an absence of snobbery, but we can promise no bullshit clickbait. Welcome!
Dan's "home made" delay board was awesome! Loved learning how a tape/analog delay works, and getting to hear each piece added in one at a time was super cool! Thanks guys!
I think my favorite part, of what is quickly becoming my favorite show you guys have done, is the “proud father” look on Dans face after making a delay. Lol. So great. Thanks guys.
When the delay you built with other pedals came together it bought such a smile to my face! What a crazy way of doing it...outrageously impractical but awesome!
Dan's pedalboard of a delay pedal is maybe the best and informative illustrations of pedal i've ever seen. so easy to understand and fantastic. thank you!!
What an epic illustration of what happens inside a delay pedal. Very clever!
Fav episode so far! Clearly much fun was had by Mick and Dan the mad scientist. That delay contraption sounded glorious!!!
All of them pedals sound really good (that APE thing is something else), but the Fulltone is like the warmest of hugs...ahhhh.
It's a crime that this genius video only has 128k views. so I watched it again
🤓🙏
This is the most informative thing I’ve seen you do. Creating that delay loop answers so many questions I had. Thanks for this!
Fantastic episode!!! So nice to have walked us through that "homemade delay". Epic!
Best TPS ever. Exploration, education, and epic tones.
With all this virus craziness going on, I’ve got nothing to do but work on my cars, build and play my guitars, and WATCH THAT PEDAL SHOW!!😂 love the fact that you guys have videos still coming out
Anyone complaining about the length of these videos,get out! Best thing on UA-cam
Best show you two have done in years. Was about to pan on the "create an EP3" segment...so glad I didn't. Mad scientist Dan is best Dan.
That was an epic show, and the tape delay récréation with the wetter box is a really clever way to explain what we like in those delays, thanks for that Moment!
Been looking forward to this episode so much! Thanks for making this weird time that little bit easier!
Thank you team (not forgetting Catherine, Simon & Fraiser of course) for the great content especially in these odd times.
This was the one which finally got me to dust off the gear and play again. Little love, a tube-style delay and some reverb - blinked and nearly three hours had passed; just like the old days.
Legends.
Magnificent episode. Really a revelation about reconstructing the sound. Fabulous demonstration of how subtle alterations impact your playing. This will really help me squirmel through the learning process with the BED.
Thx!
Greetings from NZ!
Hey, Mick, every time you say "Belle Epoch" it sounds like "BELLY PORK" ... which is now the name by what my pedal shall forever be known!
Great work guys!
And super-props for hosting Lee Malia and Rabea Massad - amazing players and you two certainly learned a lot from the heavier spectrum.
This is the joint best youtube show with "Pedals And Effects"
also devin townsend's ocean machine?
come on, Dan, you built his board!
I used to just plug my guitar into my amp and just live with whatever sound comes out. Now I've got some pedals in between and the tone I'm getting is righteous to my ears. And that's because of you guys. Cheers from the Big Apple.
Hooray! Cheers back to Le Pomme Grande!
Genius. Now I really understand the true function of all the knobs on my delay pedal!
thank you for the distraction chaps.
I have become a Grandad in all the madness (yesterday the 9th April) while my housemate and dear friend lost his father to cancer.
I have coped outside of the limited permitted contact with my family by chaining a load of delay and reverb pedals together and doing a daily Hans Zimmer / Brian Eno 3 minute meditation to positively express my frustration.
Thank you so much for all you do. Sometimes it's nothing short of a lifeline.
Yours sincerely
Kelvin
Congratulations Kelvin, and our condolences to your friend. Covid is having such a radically different effect on different people. We wish you all the best, safe in the knowledge that it will end sometime relatively soon! Stay well sir. :0)
You know you have been watching too much TPS when you start having dreams that Dan and Mick come over to your house and talk amps, and pedals! Love the show guys! Been watching since the beginning. Thanks for all the great content!
Thanks Luke, you’re so welcome 🤓👍
Brilliant show. Loved Dan’s homemade delay.
Dan, you are an absolute class act. That was absolutely amazing!
Only Dan could create a 2.5k delay to sound like a 1k. Love it and that delay he created was incredible. Great episode. Hope you’re staying safe and well.
I love the idea that Dan recreates a delay effect with ... pedals. Only at That Pedal Show! Brilliant, genius, and it clarifies so we’ll how a delay effect works. Well done lads and take care of yourselves.
That was killer. Part 2 was spectacular. That was the best explanation of a tape echo I have ever heard. I thought the "LEGO" tape echo you assembled was actually my favorite. All units sounded fantastic as well as both of your playing (as always.) Thank you!
Been watching since the GigRig days of the channel and just wanted to say this might have been my favorite episode ever! VERY COOL rig that Dan put together. Great playing and great conversation as always. Good vibes all around, especially given everything going on at the moment. Be well, guys. Cheers!
Explaning and successfully recreating with other pedals a (tape) delay circuit was brilliant. The description at the beginning of that segment as Lego tape delay was accurate. I learned a lot. You ought to be proud of this episode, even if there are complaints about not enough playing. I won't be alone in saying I am so impressed.
Dan, your playing at 7:00 was mesmerising. I could listen to that on repeat for days. Pardon the pun.
I bought my Empress Tape Delay from Matt Schofield just because I wanted to own something of his, turned out to be one of my favorite delay pedals ever. So glad you featured it!
I love this series! I'm learning so much. And now I finally understand (I think) what "analog dry through" is. Hurray!
Dan's breakdown of all the parts and the delay pedal/board build was very interesting. Great video.
What a fun experiment with the delay parts recreation! Couldn't believe how riveted I was seeing the process play out.
Epic episode!!! Love it!!! Illustrates why so many of us have MANY different analog delays, TTE's, echorecs, digital delays, ... how many different permutations are available! Very cool!!!!
Massive props to Dan on this one. The Rube-goldberg digital analog tape delay machine was truly fascinating and was probably as close to a scientific lecture and demonstration on tape delay design as anyone is ever going to get or give. Very very impressed with this episode gents. Even just seeing the eq curve on the ge7 goes a long way to helping me dial in my timeline to better emulate a tape delay. Cheers from Brisbane.
Great show guys! That tape delay pedalboard Dan built was fantastic! So cool how that worked!
Definitely in my top 10 favorite TPS episodes! Great fun indeed. Happy Easter Dan & Mick and crew and families!
Great episode guys! Watching it twice back to back. Cheers
The effectrode compressor has caught my ears and eyes. That is a special one.
I’m in NZ so I’m gonna delay watching till the morning.
fossilmatic Badum-tusch.
Kia Ora cuz
It took a moment before I got that one.
You could tape it to watch later
And watch it, I DID...DId...Did...did...
My favourite tape delay is my TC alter ego v2; on the space echo mode with long feedback, low mix, and mid length triplet repeats in stereo it's pure magic and adds so much
Tonight’s episode reiterated why I keep my Belle Epoch Deluxe in trails mode. I love that preamp. Dan’s delay rig sounded fantastic.
Best show in a while!! LOVE the part with your own ”tapedelay”! Really hoaxed some great sounds out of that!
