After the Dream ’65, Ruby ’63, Woodrow ’55, Starlight, Golden and Astra effects units from Universal Audio were released, everyone was wondering what creations they’d come up with next for their stompbox lineup. Today, we’re proud to present the first of the next three pedals: the Galaxy ’74 Tape Echo & Reverb. Built upon award-winning UAFX dual‑engine processing and an unquenchable thirst for sonic authenticity, Galaxy ’74 Tape Echo & Reverb captures the warm, warped, relentlessly analog effects of the iconic mid-’70s Roland Space Echo hardware, for a crayon box of lush textures, right at your feet.
Grab a Galaxy ’74 Tape Echo & Reverb from Sweetwater: https://sweetwater.sjv.io/eKREkg
Get iconic tape textures filled with the musical wow and flutter and saturation of the original Space Echo unit, and use the multi-head design — along with doubled delay times and tap tempo — to create rhythmic subdivisions not possible on the original hardware. You can even bend minds in realtime with self-oscillation for crazy runaway delay effects.
Only Galaxy ’74 gives you the authentic dub-heavy effects of the original’s spring reverb — along with a Dwell control for even wilder sounds — hurtling your tone into the cosmos, with textures that leave other emulators of this hallowed hardware behind in a puff of space dust. This powerful engine runs separate stereo instances of each reverb and delay — for stunning three-dimensional stereo depth that is unmatched by any other stompbox. And with the UAFX Control app, you can tweak footswitch settings, adjust realtime effects, and customize unique oscillation sounds to blast your tones into the stratosphere.
We can sit here and tell you all about the options and ins-n-outs of the Galaxy ’74 Tape Echo & Reverb, but you really need to hear it in action. Luckily, we do demos, and have got one that will be perfect if you’ve got 10 minutes to kill. This pedal is an excellent introduction to the newest members of the Universal Audio FX lineup – we’ve got the other two on the way soon, so stay tuned for those. Be sure to visit the UA website for more details and info on this magnificent creation, too…cheers!
