BEYOND THE ORIGINAL HARDWARE ECHOSON extends the features of the original hardware and joins the flexibility of the digital world to the character of the analog processing.
STEREO MODE You can process left and right with different settings (Mono), send delays to the opposite channel (Cross) and combine the two channels (Verb)
HEADS CONTROL You can switch on/off the playback heads individually and decide which ones are fed back to the magnetic drum
ADJUSTABLE TIME While the original hardware has a fixed delay time of 310mSec, the Echoson allows you to choose a different tempo and even sync it to the song's BPM.
The original units have been manufactured in the '60s and '70s by an Italian company. They are currently highly demanded thanks to their unique tone which adds a touch of personality to modern recordings.
It's the secret weapon of many contemporary engineers which use it on vocals, keyboards and drums to achieve a unique tone.
A UNIQUE AND FLEXIBLE SOUNDCHAIN While a tape echo's input sound is recorded to tape, on a ECHOSON it is recorded onto a circular spinning disc which has 4 playback heads positioned around it.
