PCM80/81 do a great job at simulating reel to reel tape echo!
The DUAL FX card has several nice presets showing that and my library "The Revelation Collection" too.
Reel to reel tape echo has way less artifacts than multi-heads tape echo, so it was the "next thing" in echo technology back in the early '70s studios.
It was expensive 'cuz you had to own at least a reels tape deck, like the Revox A77. Often big studios had more than one and tape flanging was born on these decks. Eddie Kramer told me many stories about this and how Hendrix used these devices on "Electric Ladyland".
Enjoy!
