Seller's description

The Binson Echorec was so cool we had no choice but to bring it back. And we wanted to bring it back right. We wanted to take all the goodness of that huge Binson Echorec and squeeze it down into a standard sized stompbox without losing anything. In fact, in addition to not losing any of the qualities that made it such a compelling musical device, we wanted to EXTEND its capabilities because the original Binson hinted at possibilities that it couldn’t realize. We’re talking about variable delay time! We thought, “What if we had the same four playback head concept but could stretch the delay time out beyond the 300mS of the original Binson?” Then the rhythmic patterns suggested by the various combinations of those four playback heads could really come to life! SWELL: The SWELL knob is essentially the feedback control of the delay. When this control is fully counter-clockwise you will get one repeat (well, 1-4 repeats depending on which playback heads are active.) As you raise the control you'll get more repeats, giving you that famous Echorec swirl! MIX: The MIX control allows you to run the Echorec completely dry (very useful as a bonus boost when run in TRUE BYPASS) or 100% wet (which works great in stereo or multiple amp setups) and anything in between. Please note that the Mix control is still active when the pedal is bypassed if the internal switch is set to “buffer”, but there will be no new wet signal present if you turned the mix to full clockwise. However, if you have a nice long self-oscillation trail going, it will keep going when you hit the bypass footswitch! If the internal switch is set to “true bypass”, then the Mix knob will have no effect when the pedal is bypassed. TONE: The TONE knob controls the timbre of the echo repeats. It is a tilt-style tone control. Around 12 o'clock, you'll get a relatively flat, neutral EQ. Turning the knob counter-clockwise will give you darker, thicker repeats, ranging from a mild burnishing to deep, murky repeats. T
