Binson Echorec 2

Hi,

Put together and shared a rough ‘under the hood’ Binson Echorec 2 emulation. It does contain a couple of Beta plugins (Tetr4 Switch and a limiter) but might satisfy anyone not able to scratch that itch currently.

(In the audio example the duo x is connected in the loop of another device where the Echorec is providing delay post-speaker cab.)

Enjoy!!

How to control the tempo? with session tap?

1 Like

By session tap, do you mean the same as ‘tap tempo’? If so, the short answer is there isn’t tap tempo configured.

The goal was just to see if I could recreate the effect in an ‘off-the-shelf’ fashion and a schematic.

However, to control the tempo/delay time you just use the Control to CV dial to set your max delay time (the one above the DELAY TIME note). It controls all the 4 delay lines relatively but you can check the delay time on the 4th delay line down to see what it’s set to.

i.e.

0 = 300ms = 200bpm 1/4 notes
Max = 1000ms = 60bpm 1/4 notes

If you have specific tempo’s you want to match then you may know to use the 60,000/BPM formula

e.g

60,000 / 120bpm = 500ms

Hope that helps
