The Keeley Magnetic Echo is a modulated echo pedal that simulates tube tape echo sounds by utilizing the delay circuit and a touch of modulation. It achieves warm and guitar-friendly delay effects by incorporating a touch of Lo-Fi delay and a slightly filtered echo response to maintain warmth, along with modulation to emulate the wow and flutter characteristic of vintage tape machines.

The modulation section of the pedal offers controls for Depth and Rate, allowing users to create vintage or unique tones with a slight wavering of pitch on the trails of the repeats, similar to the modulation in the Seafoam Chorus pedal. The delay section features controls for Time, Regen, and Level, providing flexibility in shaping the delay effects.
The Magnetic Echo pedal offers delay times ranging from 40 to 600 milliseconds, catering to a wide range of musical styles and applications. With its ability to evoke the warm choruses from vintage tape machines and its capacity for self-oscillation, the Magnetic Echo is suitable for both conventional and avant-garde guitar playing.
The pedal's compact dimensions make it suitable for pedalboard integration, and its true bypass mode ensures minimal impact on the signal chain when disengaged.
