I've heard of floppy disk delays, I'm interested in floppy disk delays.....but $2,000? granted they have pictures of Omar and Cedric(??) holding one, so surely it's worth it.

I guess I need to go the DIY route, seems pretty sweet though.

LoL, this is the nerdiest pedal ever. Cool sounds with that motor control.
If you could build one, hats off to you! Imagine having an old 386 desktop computer as a pedalboard with floppy delay hack, would be sick.

Dude fuck their demo and that price. Good God. LOL. I might be interested if the price was so obscene.

And yet I *think* I want one.
Imagine having interchangeable disks, and jamming a kinda fucked one in there for all your grainy distorted wow and fluttering needs.

LOOOOOOOL
If you guys just hold your horses, you will get one at a much better price. I'm not in liberty to say who's working on it, but yeah. $2000 is stupid.

Oh I'm nowhere near even considering one, way way outta my price range.
UC your shroud of mystery intrigues me. Possibly sexually.

There was another guy who made a little tape based delay based off a Marantz, his prices jumped from $550 to $1000 in a few months too. This guy:

Another case of "Might have been interested if it wasn't outright extortionate". When you can get a RE-201 for the same price, meh.
I'm hoping that what Kent is talking about is Industrialectric, that would be a dream come true.
Edit: not at libery to say.

Design seems like an abortion. The on/off footswitch over the motor button screams "I'm going to break."
And yea, no way I'd ever consider something in that price range for what it is.
But I'm a simple dude and the Space Echo is all I ever really wanted out of a tape unit, and this just screams gimmick for 80s nostalgia.
