Video description:
I recently upgraded my EF-X3 by adding the Record Head mod. The Erase Head mod and Record Head mod do not come standard on the EF-X3. The mod is installed by the Echo Fix team in Australia. The Erase Head Mod allows you to turn off the erase head which puts it in overdub looping mode. It loops at around 9 seconds at the fastest speed and around 35 seconds at the slowest speed. At that point, if you turn off the Record Head mod, the tape will loop indefinitely at the same level. With the Record Head off, you'll find that you can still send sound in through the reverb, and chorus. The chorus and reverb share an output in the back that is separate from the tape head outs. I didn't know this previously, as I only had the Erase Head Off mod. If you keep the Record Head on, the unit continues to record and overdub new sounds over old sounds. Because the record head is recording, each loop becomes a bit quieter on each pass. Turning up the feedback can keep the loop level the same, or much louder on each pass, but it also is stacking delay over delay on each loop.

I recorded the individual head outputs, and panned head 1 45% right, head 2 45% left, head 3 100% right and head 4 100% left.

Gear used:
Echo Fix EF-X3
