Boss RE-202 Space Echo Pedal



Boss RE-202 Space Echo Pedal: The Legendary Roland RE-201 Experience Returns

The legendary Roland RE-201 Space Echo experience returns in an advanced delay pedal with modern features. Introduced in 1974, the Roland RE-201 Space Echo stands among the most legendary and sought-after effect units ever produced. This tape-based classic remained in production for over 14 straight years, and its distinctive rhythmic echo sounds, warm character, and highly playable sonic quirks still inspire musicians, producers, and audio mixers over four decades on.

Authentic Sound and Behavior

Backed by intensive R&D and our latest innovations, the RE-202 faithfully delivers the authentic sound and behavior of the Space Echo like never before. Built by the company that designed the original, this advanced pedal captures the RE-201's magic in flawless detail, from the magnetic tape and motor properties to the vibrant spring reverb and colorful preamp circuit. And to take things even further, we've expanded the vintage Space Echo experience with lots of new features tuned for today's music.

Expanded Features for Modern Musicians

The RE-202 offers classic multi-head tape echo sound with expanded delay time and the original three-head configuration plus an additional tape head for 12 unique echo combinations. It includes an independent stereo reverb section with the original spring reverb type, plus hall, plate, room, and ambience. The saturation control adds magnetic tape compression and preamp coloration, while the Wow & Flutter control introduces varying levels of natural tape modulation. Musicians can choose between new and aged tape conditions and select input modes for optimum performance with instruments and line-level gear.

Enhanced Control and Connectivity

The RE-202 is designed for versatile performance, featuring Warp and Twist effects with footswitch control and the ability to select between the unprocessed analog dry signal or the modeled sound of the original Space Echo preamp. It offers four onboard memories plus the current panel settings, with the capability to save and select 127 memories via external MIDI program change. Tap tempo and carryover functions, true stereo input and output, and expandable control via external footswitches, an expression pedal, or MIDI provide extensive flexibility for any setup.
