Echo Cat

Wavesfactory Echo Cat is a tape delay plugin that pairs vintage echo character with flexible modern controls. Modelled on the classic Watkins Copicat, it recreates the behaviour of a tape loop and three playback heads for warm repeats, gritty textures and swirling feedback. Push the input for crushed tape colour, or raise sustain to explore self-oscillation. Each head offers independent timing, volume, pan and high-pass/low-pass filtering, making it easy to build anything from tight guitar echoes to spacious rhythmic patterns. Tempo sync keeps repeats locked to your track, while ducking helps the dry signal stay clear. Tape age, hiss, wow and flutter let you dial in worn, unstable character. With M/S processing and stereo widening also available, Echo Cat suits producers and guitarists who want hands-on tape flavour without giving up precise control.
