Nomad Factory is proud to introduce ECHOES, a new Analog Echo Box plug-in designed to give you the warmth and richness of classic vintage delay effects.

The world's first delay effects were achieved using tape loops improvised on reel-to-reel systems in the 1950's. The dawn of the analog delay came in the 1960's with the Maestro® Echoplex. Many guitarists embraced the technology as a way to enhance their sound including Robert Fripp, John Martyn and Jimi Hendrix.

Often incorporating vacuum tube-based electronics, vintage analog delay units are highly sought after by today's musicians who desire the unique timbres achievable with this technology. Solid-state delay units using transistors became available in the 1970s and were briefly a mainstream alternative to tape echo.

Though solid-state analog delays are less flexible than digital delays and generally have shorter delay times, several classic models such as the discontinued Boss® DM-2 are still regarded for their "warmer", more natural echo quality and progressively decaying delays.

Nomad Factory's ECHOS features 5 classic analog delay effects all in one plug-in:

* PLX-1: Based on* Maestro® Echoplex 1
The original Tube-based tape delay effect

* PLX-3: Based on* Maestro® Echoplex 3
Transistor-based tape echo

* Oilcan: Based on* Tel Ray® Echo
Tapeless Oilcan delay/echo

* EHX-DM: Based on* Electro Harmonix® Deluxe Memory Man
The most in-demand analog delay pedal ever built

* ADM-2: Based on* Boss® DM-2
Analog delay pedal from the early 80's
