My journey to build an analog tape echo using inexpensive Walkmans sourced from Amazon. It’s noisy, has lots of tape hiss. It’s lo-fi, it warbles massively and sometimes the feedback loop is uncontrollable.... but it’s different, much different than any delay pedal. I would say as a guitar pedal it’s not that useful but as a performance tool it works really well to create textures and noise.
