Dynacord ECHOCORD SUPER 62

This is a case virtually unique, rare, made at the dawn of the sixties.
All tube, it will also act as heat in the winter, six lamps (current)!

The connection is original din 5 pin, it will connect you to change the jack (and believe me it's not an easy task because of the size of the hole) if you still have the solution of the 5 pin din adapter / jack female seems to be the simplest.

Its side, this is great but an echo that blows a lot, probably because of its age, however well regulated, which is not really clear, it sounds great, the light echo and short the longest and saturated. even very unique compared to other tape echo type echplex ep-3. This is the work of the lamps that gives character to his tt.

The use on stage is excluded because the rates are fixed, 3 buttons plus two frame rates, it is sometimes short, over the beast is not far from ten pounds!
The output level is a little weak, and breathing very far. pt be this was my model?
Book at the home studio, as a preamp or effect dub. Feedback echo the beautiful st.

UTILIZATION

No man, very hard to find the pattern.

Oh yeah, the look is superb, just for that, it's worth it.
the magic eye is the icing on the cake.

the use is not practical, it is the tps to refine the sound, know the limits of the feedback, as the level goes up very quickly, this is not the easiest to use, but against what color!

SOUND QUALITY

St appropriate instruments sounds synth type percussion, the piano, guitars, snare.
few instruments go wrong.
I think this sound is incomparable with the more recent type space echo, they st cleaner but less warm (lamps, there's the way to go), it is capricious wind, sometimes the band locks the seal tape that keeps the loop can sometimes be understood in passing over the heads.
But it is also a different era, and we believe it willingly.

OVERALL OPINION

Paid 450 euros, I think it was worth in the state that 200 euros, I had to turn connectivity, change two lamps, resistances to change qq, qq to make hacks for a technician to pass on a console.
Clearly, even in unusual lighting and do not spend more than 250 euros, except in exceptional condition, which seems unlikely after four decades.
For fans PATIENTS ONLY.

The "room cho" of references of the sixties. (Cost the Yardbirds!) 4 advantages of pre-amplification indpendants with a 1 / 2 ECC83 dedicates each of (DIN plug to two microphones and two instruments + a direct one between troisme instrument.)
Channels remain fully spares.
Keyboard keys to choose between three types of rptitions sound effects + Rverb or effect cathedral and two speeds dfile band.
Output to DIN plug to choose between a voltage of 1 V or 0.4 mV.
Cherry (green) on the cake the magic eye (EM34) for adjusting the input level to avoid saturating the prampli. The sound is absolutely superb.
We can of course choose to saturate dlibrement and we obtain in this case because "Celtic" trs particular.
Difficult to notice the camera today but the era c'tait the top!

UTILIZATION

Everyone will find his marks, rglages are easy thanks to the keyboard, the effects of feedback with cho particulrement are thundering. The manuals are not found but they are not really useful.

SOUND QUALITY

There are lights in a band and things magic has disappeared with the transistors. The sound is warm and cho is finally closer to a place vrit rel with the delay that is too perfect! With a guitar and we retouve Shadows Yardbirds, with a microphone and two fingers Rverb voice is no Global Warming mtallique cot.
Prvoir always a band in advance!

OVERALL OPINION

Used since 1962, perfectly maintained, recently refurbished, an APRS PERIOD "attic" I welcome this retouve ancestor continues valiantly despite his great age has given me much pleasure. If you have the possibility to find one in good condition do not let the opportunity pass!
Do not hesitate to change or to change the capacitors, this was simply renovating disparatre all away. The MUST for reverb and cho
