Published on 05/12/14 at 08:11 (This content has been automatically translated from French)Here is a reissue pedal format mythical "Binson Echorec" made in the 60s and 70s. Sure, it is not in the most complete but almost replica. In any case the echo is closest to the original Echorec.
The Echorec of Catalinbread has 5 knobs that control the tone repetitions, the number of repetitions, the delay time of the repeated effect, a "Mix" which allows to mix the processed signal and unprocessed knob and finally a manager programs of the small box. These programs, 12 in number, are used to select which of four read heads will work.
There are other pots inside but I confess that I have not really looked.

UTILIZATION
The use is relatively simple, you turn the knobs and it works. Note that the pedal is not "true-bypass" the factory because the switch is switched to the mode "trails" which does not cut the repetitions when the effect is off.
I regret the lack of effectiveness of small "Mix" button is fairly rough and it is difficult to precisely mix the processed sound of the unprocessed sound ... I also regret the absence of "notches" on the knob selection programs that would allow you to select precisely the desired program ... Too bad.
SOUND QUALITY
It is squarely in the vintage with this pedal. Whether you want slicks or echo sounds more percussive, the pedal can satisfy you. No background noise, as delicious repetitions Vintage!
I owned and not have a lot of delay pedals: Maxon AD999, TC Electronic Nova Delay, Line 6 Echo Park, Earthquaker Devices Dispatch Master and famous Echorec. I tried the Belle Epoch but also alongside the Echorec, I took it. A great success!
OVERALL OPINION
The echo / delay effect produced by the Echorec is very distinctive and will not suit everyone. For vintage sounds, no problem. For the rest, go your way.
The price is really high, but it is the only replica of the original Echorec that exists to this day.

NegensTHE SLAUGHTER!
Published on 05/03/13 at 08:46 (This content has been automatically translated from French)A delay pedal inspired by the famous Binson ECHOREC, which always baffled Pink Floyd fans.
No PC connections or anything like that.
1 input, 1 output, 1 power jack!
UTILIZATION
It's a very straight-forward pedal. Best part is, it sounds great with any settings.
Swell: number of repeats (feedback)
Tone: It's just tone!
Delay Time: time between repeats.
Mix: wet signal amount
Select Program: allows you to choose different head configurations just like on the real Binson.
Insider the pedal you'll find:
A true-bypass switch (or buffered with trails)
Gain adjustment trimpot.
Modulation depth trimpot (it's a shame this one is on the inside).
The downloadable manual is only...…

The downloadable manual is only available in English (non-English speakers will feel left out) but it's very clear and easily accessible.
SOUND QUALITY
This thing will make you sound vintage all the way!
Seriously, I have always regretted selling my old Deluxe Memoryman and I thought I would never find another "organic" delay.
I'm so glad I got this!
It's like a time machine! No matter what you plug in it or whatever amp you're using (even modern sounding ones), you'll suddenly find yourself in the 70s wearing old blue jeans, a colorful baggy shirt, a bandana, playing psychedelia all over! woohoo!
Interstellar overdrive, Echoes, Astronomy... It's all there! I can't believe it.
PS. if you plug in a good old Wah, a Volume pedal and a Spring Reverb, you might never come back!
OVERALL OPINION
I've bought a bunch of pedals before getting this.
Only my old Deluxe Memoryman sounded as good, in a whole different way of course. (Selling it was a stupid mistake)
I ended up selling them one after the other, because none of them had that -what the the anglophones call- "lush" sound.
I'm glad to say that I've finally found it. AND I'm happy, really HAPPY!
What I really like about it: that awesome vintage sound.
What I don't like about it: the fact that the modulation depth trimpot is on the inside and requires a screwdriver to adjust.
Great Quality/Price ratio.
If lost or stolen would I buy it again! HELL YES!
