A reimagined tape delay: the legacy of analog echoes, in pedalboard format
Before digital delays, echo was created by recording and then playing back a signal on a tape loop: an imperfect... yet magical technology. Over the decades, this effect became a standard thanks to legendary machines, with their warm grain, repeats that age gracefully, and an "organic" feel that no perfectly clean echo fully replicates. The JHS Pedals 3 Series Tape Delay follows this tradition by offering a direct approach: capturing the feel of a tape delay with immediate usability and controls designed for playing, not programming.
In the spirit of certain classics, the Tape Speed control simulates the speed variations of a tape machine's motor, which directly affects the delay time. This allows for natural transitions between very short echoes and longer repeats, with a musicality that invites exploration.
Who it's for, and in which styles the JHS 3 Series Tape Delay makes a difference
This pedal is suited both for guitarists seeking their first inspired "tape echo" delay and for experienced musicians looking for a simple, effective tape echo that's easy to integrate on a pedalboard. Thanks to its intuitive controls, you quickly find your setting, whether for repeats or live performance, without getting lost in secondary options.
In terms of styles, it excels in blues and rock to thicken a lead with subtle echo, in indie for lo-fi textures, and also in ambient and post-rock to layer echoes that gradually fade. In the studio, it adds a "living" color to takes, and live it remains clear: the Mix precisely doses the effect's place in the overall sound.

Questions frequently asked
What delay time range does the JHS Pedals 3 Series Tape Delay offer?
The Tape Speed control covers a range from 15 ms to 950 ms. Short settings provide a slapback effect, while longer settings produce more spaced-out repeats.
Does the Flutter switch affect the delay sound?
In the up position, the Flutter switch adds slight pitch and timing modulation to the repeats. This modulation mimics tape irregularities and adds movement to sustained chords.
What power supply is required for this delay pedal?
A 9 V DC center-negative power supply with a 2.1 mm x 5.5 mm plug is required. The current draw is specified at 65 mA.
How is the number of repeats adjusted?
The Repeats knob controls the number of echoes, from a single repeat to denser repetitions. Their fidelity gradually decreases with each repeat.
What connectivity does the 3 Series Tape Delay use?
The input jack is located on the right side in a 6.35 mm format, and the output jack is on the left side, same format. This layout is suitable for pedalboard integration.
