delay and reverb 100% analog tape.
Available settings:
- Activation of read heads (1 head 3 speed limit, several heads: reverb)
- General volume
- Determination of the effect, which allows a kind of roar when pushed to background
- Gains of entries


USE

The device is very "rough" electrically speaking. We are far from the CE ...
In fact I recommend placing it behind DI boxes, it makes no difference to the sound, and it's safer.

Publishing side, the few available settings require no explanation, everything on.

Only regret that we can not vary the speed of the tape for even more possibilities. So I put only 8 lol.

SOUND QUALITY

The sound quality is amazing. Grain but little breath, a fairly good momentum actually.
The craziest is that as soon as the active one begins for Floyd or King Krimson is unstoppable.
Reverb procured quality is amazing considering the techno used, it is hard to believe ... and sometimes almost too well.

In use in "modern music", it is best to book this effect in solo parts well in advance to benefit grain background, as if using a lambda reverb plugin.


NOTICE GLOBAL

I received this machine 2 years ago from a friend whose father, a great "cursed guitarist" died a little faster. It was broken and had not turned 20 years. I repaired and returned to service so it has sentimental value for me.
That said beyond affect, what a sound!

Tape echo: echo of the slap up to the feedback delay which would be fully
Transistor technology (70's)
Not editable
Connection jack: 2 inputs with a gain per input / 1 output

UTILIZATION

Very simple configuration
Indeed fabulously rich grain noise

The effect (of slap back delay in the endless ..) is splendid: the pure analog

I like everything

The pleasure of cutting the tape, put the wheels on his drive and redo the same actions as Pink Floyd were at the time of their concerts in London at UFO, psych period (even if they were using I think of Binson echo tape), is a real time travel
