UAFX Orion Tape Echo
The UAFX Orion Tape Echo is a premium tape delay pedal from Universal Audio, delivering the warm repeats, natural modulation, and analog character of classic vintage tape echo systems. Designed for guitarists, producers, and sound designers, Orion recreates the organic behaviour and evolving textures associated with legendary tape-based delay units.
Powered by advanced UAFX processing, Orion captures the subtle saturation, flutter, wow, and dynamic response that define authentic tape echo sound. From vintage slapback and rhythmic delays to expansive ambient repeats, the pedal provides highly musical delay textures suitable for both studio recording and live performance.
The intuitive control layout offers quick access to delay time, repeats, mix, and modulation behaviour, making it easy to dial in everything from classic rockabilly echoes to atmospheric cinematic soundscapes. Compact and pedalboard-friendly, Orion integrates seamlessly into modern guitar rigs and hybrid production setups.
