Equipped with three evenly spaced tape heads and a spring reverb tank, it could produce everything from clean, single delays to dense, rhythmic echoes and ambient washes. The RE-201’s appealing sound was influenced by many factors, from the warm compression of magnetic tape saturation to the evolving modulation produced by motor speed fluctuations, friction, and other elements. Last but not least, analog preamp circuitry was a key ingredient in the Space Echo’s rich sonic recipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"features-column-text\"\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"features-column-title\"\u003eA Masterpiece Reborn\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"features-column-text\"\u003eIn developing the RE-2 and its big brother, the RE-202, BOSS engineers have fully reproduced all the complex, non-linear behaviors that contribute to the RE-201’s immortal character. We carefully analyzed several vintage RE-201s, including a pristine original unit from the BOSS and Roland factory archive. Everything that influences the sound has been recreated with all-new algorithms, including the tape path, record\/playback mechanism, motor variations, preamp coloration, spring reverb character, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"features-column-text\"\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"features-column-title\"\u003eJourney to Deep Space\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"features-column-text\"\u003eThe RE-2 squeezes the complete sonic character of the RE-201 into the classic BOSS compact pedal format. The 11-position mode selector lets you dial in different virtual tape heads with or without spring reverb, and you can balance the echo\/reverb blend with independent level knobs. Every behavior is accurately replicated, such as the gradual pitch change that occurs with Repeat Rate tweaks and the runaway feedback that happens when maxing the Intensity knob. And with the expressive Wow \u0026amp; Flutter control, you can conjure all the natural modulation characteristics that are essential to the Space Echo sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"features-column-text\"\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"features-column-title\"\u003eBuilt for Modern Players\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"features-column-text\"\u003eThe RE-2 takes the Space Echo experience further with versatile features for today’s music. Delay time has been doubled and tap tempo control is supported, and there’s a cool Twist function for creating evocative special effects as you perform. For the dry sound, you can choose between the warm and fat RE-201 preamp tone or a clean signal with zero processing. Full stereo I\/O is available, and it’s possible to mute the dry signal for parallel effect setups and studio use. The RE-2 also supports expanded control via external footswitches or an expression pedal, including continuous pedal control of multiple panel functions at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"features-column-text\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"features-column-text\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Second Hand Pedals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43528054538299,"sku":null,"price":240.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0045\/7952\/files\/20260519_163556.jpg?v=1779174035","url":"https:\/\/www.pedalempire.com.au\/products\/second-hand-boss-re-2-space-echo-delay","provider":"Pedal Empire","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
