Catalinbread Belle Epoch Deluxe

[hoover]

I'm not sure why people are griping so much about the price- it's $25 more than an El Capistan, which is a mostly digital emulation of tape echo, whereas this is an exact recreation of the analog circuitry of an EP3 with a digital delay line. Apparently it takes an hour and a half just to put all the components on the board. The price is for parts and labour, which manifest in the best sounding delay pedal I've ever played.

Andy, what an excellent demo you have done of this pedal. It is truly one of my new favorites that now lives on my board. I can’t imagine not using it with an expression pedal as you are only taking advantage of maybe 2/3rds of its capabilities. Thank you for showing me some new tricks to try!!

This is the video that sold me on it. It comes in the mail today.

This is my delay of choice. Closest to tape without the hassle and all. Just amazing, and that pre-amp is to die for.

[ArsOb-DWD-KSC]

Excellent demo of the versatility this pedal offers & without any bloat!

A lot of pedals get some hype, but then a year later there are lots going used on Reverb. I just checked. Not a single one of these is being sold used. I don't do not know how many people bought them, but they obviously are keepers. I generally do not use delay so often except for a bit of space in post, but I want one of these for the tone shaping as well.

This IS the Pedal - I will be buying - when they release the Next Version ( hopefully ) with a Tap Tempo. It is a Phenomenal Sounding Pedal. For the Music I play, - the Tap Tempo is a Must.

It sounds like an exhaling hippie high on tape. I'm in love.

Andy, you cannot hide your pie-eatin' grin; this pedal was made for you!

[CLaw-tbgg]

Andy, taking you a step closer to bankruptcy one video at a time.

[Adamnme]

Andy, would you do a video on your right hand technique? It's one of the most interesting I've seen across youtube.

I went to a digital setup (Fractal Audio AX8), and love the freedom from the world of GAS. This is the first pedal that has tempted me to use the effects loop on my unit. KHAAAAN!

[Patriotic]

I see a lot of ahhh no tap tempo. 😂😂😂. This is perfect for building a “time machine”. I’m glad Jimmy Page or Gilmour never used tap tempo.

[acsekify]

Kevin Parker is going to use that setting at 3:05 that's for sure.

[allkeysjamtracks]

When I think my delay pedal is just fine...

[revol]

Damn that's fun! Looks like I need to get another delay pedal.

[closertotheheart]

Oh Lord, keep this one in production CB....I'm going to sell 90% of my pedals so I can one day afford one of these and a Strymon Mobius.

[drphilriley]

I could watch Andy ALL DAY!! Andy's new nickname is A.D.

[rickc]

Resonant frequency control, and, sold.

[ShlomirBareket]
