Anyone know where to point me for examples of RE-201 Space Echo?
...I know there are tons of these floating around and I suspect quite a few offseters here have one too. Anyone know of some of sound clips on the web they could point me to for examples - either examples of tracks from famous artists, or even your own recordings/band project. Only thing I found was a myspace entry for re201 that has a couple of very short spaceship sounds recorded to show an example.
...I never really paid much attention to these as I have a few delay pedals and figured I was covered on that front for performance, but now that I am doing more recording with our band I am considering picking up a 201(or maybe a 301 or 501 if the price is right) just to add a little warmth and depth to certain vocals, drums, and of course the guitar. Any suggestions?

I think Radiohead's 'Subterranean Homesick Alien' is a perfect example.

the guy who played synth and organ in my band ellis the vacuumchild used a RE-201 all the time, mostly to warm up the sound and give it some ambience. i think it´s most apparent on the track "decapitation spree".
it´s quite low in the mix though...

The first several seconds of "when the going gets..." reminds me of Orange Juice's "Falling and Laughing" which is an awesome song.

I think the long echoes on King Tubby's dub stuff are Space Echo, at least on the 70s albums .. gives an idea of what they're capable of when pushed.
Distance-crunching honcho with echo unit.

yeah, king tubby was the reason for mattias (my bandmate) getting a space echo in the first place.mezcalhead wrote: I think the long echoes on King Tubby's dub stuff are Space Echo, at least on the 70s albums .. gives an idea of what they're capable of when pushed.
