Akai Head Rush E2 Pedal

Widely regarded as one of the best tape echo simulators around, the Akai Head Rush 2 continues to be a favourite with guitarists looking for a vintage sounding delay pedal.

Here's what Akai say about the Head Rush 2

The Akai Professional E2 Headrush pedal brings delay, tape echo simulations and a looping recorder in one convenient pedal.
User selectable delay options allow for maximum control of output signal. Real time feedback and gain adjustment as well as echo rate.
HEADRUSH also simulates a 4-head analog tape echo machine with control over decay and spacing between virtual tape heads to create complex multiple delays and repeats. The signal from each virtual head appears on an individual output for multiple returns when used with an external mixing console.

The LOOPING RECORDER mode allows you to record and overdub layer after layer of sound in real-time making the HEADRUSH an unbelievable live performance tool.

Depending upon which mode is selected, the left footswitch controls the on/off and play/stop functions while the right footswitch sets the tap delay time or recording and overdub options. The LED display indicates which effect in use and blinks in time showing the delay time selected.

A versatile delay pedal for live use, in particular for guitar and bass players, or vocalists.
