Stellar Echo SD-201

Stellar Echo SD-201 is a meticulously-crafted reimagining of the iconic analog tape echo that defined the sound of dub, reggae, and alt-rock records of the 1970s and beyond. The plugin captures the magic of the original while adding significant enhancements tailored to modern music production.

Stellar Echo SD-201 recreates the unique character and nuance of vintage tape delay by introducing the same subtle pitch and timing variations and harmonic saturation found in tape regeneration. Echoes evolve in a very distinctive way and blend naturally into a mix.

In addition to authentically emulating the sound and functionality of the original hardware, Stellar Echo adds some additional features to the mix that enable producers to create effects impossible to achieve with the original:

• Full stereo operation with ping-pong delay and adjustable Echo Width for more immersive effects.
• Custom plate, chamber, and hall reverbs (in addition to the standard spring reverb) with adjustable decay time for creating unique ambient spaces.
• Wow & Flutter slider, Dry Thru Slider, and Clean/Noise switches for enhanced tape emulation.
• A 'Custom' mode that introduces a fourth playhead and gives users full control over output volume, stereo balance, and head position for greater tonal sculpting.
