BOSS Space Echo Compact Pedal RE-2

After many years of development, BOSS embarked on the development of a new Space Echo. Drawing on extensive data accumulated over the years, and thoroughly reanalyzing several units, including a rare, mint-condition RE-201 from their own collection, BOSS thoroughly examined everything from tape friction and recording/playback mechanisms to motor behavior, preamp characteristics, tape condition, and the Z-shaped spring reverb, to fully uncover previously unknown sound mechanisms. The RE-2 is a compact effect that recreates the sound and behavior of the Space Echo to an unprecedented level, allowing for space-saving placement on your pedalboard.
