Delay Effects Explained

Delay Processors

In it’s simplest form, a delay is made up of very few components.
An audio input, a recording device, a playback device and an audio output.

Tape Delay

Early delay processors, such as the Echosonic, Echoplex and the Roland Space Echo, were based on analog tape technology. They used magnetic tape as the recording and playback medium. Some of these devices adjusted delay time by adjusting the distance between the playback and record heads, and others used fixed heads and adjustable tape speed.

Analog Delay

Analog delay processors became available in the 70s and used solid state electronics as an alternative to the tape delay.
