It’s not easy to reinvent forgotten technology, but after many years of research, we found the lost secrets and brought back the authentic echoes from the 1950s. It’s known for its use in David Gilmour and Hank Marvin’s guitar tones, John Bonham even used it on drums!  The Binson Echorec provides a unique and distinguishing type of echo supplied by a rotating metal drum where the audio signal is recorded through a magnetic recording head. The Four Playback heads will allow you to choose individual echoes and swells. 

The Binson Echorec will add Echo or Swell to any instrument, vocal or audio signal in general passed through it.

The Echorec is capable of single or multiple repeats or reverberation of the original signal as you choose. This effect is to create a new sensational sound, while adding depth and vividness previously only obtainable through large Echo Chambers and of course the original Echorec.

The heart of the Echorec is the Revolving Drum, a piece of precision engineering, simple in design and of solid construction, durable and stable, and capable of years of trouble-free performance with minimum maintenance.
