T-Rex tape echo User Manual - page 4
Heads: This switch will cycle through the three following configurations of the two
playback heads:
Green: Playback Head1 is on. In this conf. the longest delay times can be set. If tap
tempo is used, the echo time will be in sync with the tapped tempo.
Red:
Playback Head2 is on. This conf. gives you the shortest delay times. If tap
tempo is used, the echo time will be half of the tapped tempo.
Orange: Both heads are on. In this configuration, the first head feeds back via the sec-
ond head´s feedback path. The difference in the two playback heads´ output
level creates a rhythmic feel to the repeats.
The figure on page 8-9 illustrates the difference in delay output level of the three
modes.
Chorus: Activates the modulation of the delay(s).
Tap Tempo: This switch is used for tapping in a delay time. Head1 follows the tapped
tempo 1:1 and Head2 is 2:1 (half the time). Tempos outside of the unit´s min/max-
values will be ignored. The tap tempo function can be used to set the delay time of
head1. The figure on page 8-9 illustrates how the tapped tempo correlates to the
three modes.

Speed input: ¼” jack input for controlling the echo time (motor speed) with an expres-
sion pedal. (Use a trs connection with a linear pedal for best results).
Feedback input: ¼” jack input for controlling the feedback parameter with an expres-
sion pedal. (Use a trs connection with a linear pedal for best results).
Kill dry: This switch will mute the direct signal when pushed IN.
NOTE!: The direct signal will still be output when the pedal is bypassed, due to the
true bypass switching.
Input: Connect your signal source (instrument/mixer send/fx loop send/etc.) to this
jack.
Output: Connect your amplifier/mixer return/fx loop return/etc.) to this jack.
