Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Echosystem is a dual-delay pedal for building traditional delay sounds and more layered arrangements from the same unit. Its more than 36 algorithms span 12 types, including digital, tape, analog, ambient, multi-tap, reverb-combo, and Whisky modes. Run two engines simultaneously in serial, parallel, or left/right routing, each with its own controls, then save settings in up to 35 presets. Global or local tap tempo, direct delay-time control, selectable bypass behavior, cabinet simulation, and broad Control Port options make it suited to detailed pedalboard and recording setups.
