This delay offers creative playing along with common delay effects.

On playback you can change the delay times without scratchy digital artefacts appearing. Instead, the times are softly faded out, similar to the old tape echo machines or bucket-brigade circuits that used the tape speed to change the delay and where the system also had a certain sluggishness.

ECOX can reproduce this type of sound relatively impressively and easily, and includes tracking fluctuations and loss of highs during each feedback in tape echoes, which are, in reality, always present.

Like the CORVEX, the internal feedback has a two-band filter (low and high-cut) that can be used to create dark, high or mid repetitions depending on the settings.

A particular characteristic of ECOX is that the delay cannot be distorted 'digitally'. Even in a 'looped' repetition the signal can not be distorted indefinitely but compressed by an increasingly slight degree and distorted like with a tape.
