The Electro-Harmonix Slap-Back Echo Analog Delay, a gem from the late 1970s, has been reissued with contemporary enhancements and a compact Pico footprint.

Originating from the 1950s, an iconic sound was created using a single, short delay to enrich and rhythmically enhance numerous recordings. The reissued EHX Slap-Back Echo, with its all-analog design, resurrects this cherished classic tone and more, all within a Pico-sized, pedalboard-friendly unit. It offers three delay time settings and a boost of up to +20dB, enabling everything from subtle doubling effects to pronounced bathroom echoes, all characterized by the unique sound of bucket-brigade (BBD) circuitry.

Encased in EHX's Pico-sized enclosure, the Slap-Back Echo is equipped with Gain and Blend controls, along with a Time switch. The Gain control adjusts the input signal before it enters the echo circuit and also modulates the output volume, providing a boost of up to +20dB. The Blend control allows for mixing between the dry signal and the echo effect, ranging from 100% dry to 100% echo. The Time switch offers a selection among three distinct delay durations: 45ms, 65ms, and 100ms.
