An
analog tape-
echo unit released in
1973.
The RE-201 contains a small tape
loop recording the incoming
signal, playing it back with multiple
playback heads and getting
erased for more incoming
audio. A built-in
spring reverb is available. The unit can also generate its own
feedback loops and produce high/low shelving
EQ effects.
There are 2
microphone inputs, plus ones for
line,
PA and
pedal. The only
output available is a line level
phono-out. No
interface for
external control is included. The RE-201 is a
delicate pice of
equipment, with possibilities of tape
breaking and the spring reverb easily getting
shock damage.
