The TE-2 Tera Echo from Boss is a fun pedal! Very different than any other pedal you’ll ever see. Hard to explain as well. Starts of with a great echo/ reverb effect that has a massive decay time. 4 knobs: Effect Level, Tone, Feedback (decay) and S-Time (spread time). The spread time knob spreads out the effect sound: Shorter S-Time sounds like a mix between a shooting laser and some sci-fi movie stuff, while the Longer S-Time has a sharp laser shooting sounds at first and fades into a deep sound that I could describe as an alien spaceship landing. This sound is most noticeable the harder to hit the strings. Softer pick attack results in a more subtle effect that glistens in the background. So depending on picking style and attack the effect changes. Very cool. Hard to describe with words. But there are plenty of videos to watch of this effect in action.
