Chinese builder Donner has made a name for itself for its super affordable, no-frills guitar pedals, but a few recent releases seem to show a little more ambition – including art on the case! Their new White Tape stereo echo belongs to this new series and, in case you are wondering, it still sells for under $50 on Amazon.
Sporting stereo in and out, this is actually a very simple dual, digital tape-style delay with each channel panned hard left and right, featuring identical controls for Level, Time and Feedback. It’s exactly like having two 3-knob tape echos in one pedal offering a maximum delay length 1,000ms each.
The two channels cannot “leak” into one another, but stay entirely separate on either side.
Check out the demos of the Donner White Tape Stereo Echo, we added it to our article about the Best Tape-Style Delay Pedals.
