The BOSS RE-202 Space Echo effects pedal brings the iconic Roland RE-201 Space Echo into the modern age. First introduced in 1974, the RE-201 Space Echo was renowned for its distinctive echo sounds and musical character. Built by the same company that created the original, the RE-202 perfectly captures its signature sound through painstaking modeling of every part of the RE-201, from the tape path to the preamp. With double the delay time, extra echo types and stereo operation, the RE-202 expands on the classic Space Echo format for today's players.

Flawless Vintage Echo Recreation

The RE-202 delivers the complete vintage vibe of the RE-201 without the hassle of maintaining aging hardware. All the familiar controls are here, like the 12-position mode selector and every quirk is accurately replicated, from the pitch change when adjusting the Repeat Rate knob to the runaway feedback at maximum Intensity. Selectable tape age and variable settings let you dial in a pristine new Space Echo or a well-loved vintage unit with worn tape and idiosyncrasies. The Saturation control is carefully calibrated to emulate the tape and preamp of the RE-201, becoming warmer and more compressed as you turn it up. And the Wow & Flutter control conjures all the modulation of aged tape for an authentic Space Echo experience.

Modern Upgrades Expand Your Sound

The RE-202 builds on the Space Echo format with double the available delay time and a fourth virtual tape head for five more echo combinations. An extra echo type varies the distance between heads. True stereo I/O and operation for guitar or line-level gear provide more connectivity. Choose between the fat, warm RE-201 preamp tone or a clean signal. A stereo spring reverb is joined by hall, plate, room and ambience reverbs. Warp and Twist effects launch your sound into space with a footswitch tap. Four memories store favorite sounds, with 123 more via MIDI. Tap tempo and delay carryover when switching presets offer more flexibility. Mute the dry signal for parallel setups and studio use. External control comes from footswitches, expression pedals and MIDI.
