Explore the Outer Limits of Analog Time and Space

Built upon award-winning UAFX dual‑engine processing and an unquenchable thirst for sonic authenticity, Galaxy ’74 Tape Echo & Reverb captures the warm, warped, relentlessly analog effects of the iconic mid-’70s Roland Space Echo** hardware, for a crayon box of lush textures, right at your feet.

Swim in Warm, Gritty Delay Textures

Get iconic tape textures filled with the musical wow and flutter and saturation of the original Space Echo unit, and use the multi-head design — along with doubled delay times and tap tempo — to create rhythmic subdivisions not possible on the original hardware. You can even bend minds in realtime with self-oscillation for crazy runaway delay effects.

Get Lost in Cavernous Spring Reverb

Only Galaxy ’74 gives you the authentic dub-heavy effects of the original's spring reverb — along with a Dwell control for even wilder sounds — hurtling your tone into the cosmos, with textures that leave other emulators of this hallowed hardware behind in a puff of space dust.

Traverse the Cosmos with Dual Stereo Effect Engines

Galaxy ’74's powerful engine runs separate stereo instances of each reverb and delay — for stunning three-dimensional stereo depth that is unmatched by any other stompbox.

Expand your Effects with MIDI Control

Using its rear panel USB-to-MIDI connection, Galaxy '74 Tape Echo & Reverb fits right into your programmable MIDI rig with realtime CC control, BPM clock sync, and more. It’s the fast ticket to live performance heaven*.
