«  THE SLAUGHTER! »

Published on 05/03/13 at 08:46
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 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!
