Binson Echorec Explanation

here's how the binson echorec works.

[@darwinsaye]

This is perfect. I was looking the other day for an explanation of the lower four button on this model and it was damn near impossible to find info. Thank you.

[@AJay22285]

Is there anyone else who's watched this who kinda just wants him to keep playing? and like not stop like ever? :D Epic.

[@Philll171717]

Awesome video. I want Binson Echorecs!!!

[@nickhirst999]

Thanks, Bob. Very interesting and informative demonstration of a real classic!

[@sydthepioneer]

i bought an A 606-TR back in March, and im still in the process of repairing it. Im very excited to get it working, considering it hasn't been functional since i bought it. It's currently a $600 paper weight...

[@nickeax]

Thanks for the demo! It sounds very nice indeed.

[@Bl8ant]

Great job explaining the way it works! Very inventive too.

[@kriz716]

Great video, Yes i think this is a later model transistor version that has a lot more multitap features than the early tube models

[@hiwattbob]

depends. fully restored, rewired ones will generally fetch upwards of $1500-$2000 (maybe more). others that need rewiring will go for around $1K or below. but it depends, the green/yellow tube models tend to go for a little more than ones like mine.

[@Desmaad]

You seemed to almost go into a rendition of "One of These Days".

[@skunkape2]

Very cool

[@davidtheguitarman]

awesome delay.... a masterpiece!!! gilmour use this and the second version... this is all what a guitarist need.

[@DystopianEmpire01]

I like this better than a tape echoplex, Wish I had one of these.

[@65Magnifico]

Do they still make these today? If so, where can I get one?

[@TheMojo78]

good stuff

[@thesilencetube]

I have an echorec em6 that I am in the process of bringing back to life. The mixer portion of the unit is passing signal with minimal noise. I am unable to get the echo to work. I looked online for a schematic but there isn't a lot of info on the EM6.

[@weaselsuit]

Catalinbread is said to be coming out with a unit based on the sound of one these.

[@defikilla]

The Echo in Pink Floyd was put in by Barrett, and it gave TPATGOD that sound that was never again archieved by the Post-Syd Pink Floyd with the exception of Atom Heart Mother and Echoes. It's not just the echo, is the whole composition based on it. And wtf is "eccho" LOL.

[@StuartAdamsonskirds]

IS it a transistor version or tube?

[@hiwattbob]

Transistor. Thanks!

[@edupedrasse6055]

Hi, I'm from Brazil and I have a Binson A 606 TR-6 Please, do you have the operation manual? Or can you tell me where to find it? Thank you

[@hiwattbob]

I have a manual--if you message me your email, I can send it to you.

[@edupedrasse6055]

Thanks a lot Hiwattbob!! My e-mail is: [e-mail]

[@edupedrasse6055]

Thanks a lot! my e-mail is: [e-mail].

You can do anything with digital effects. The only thing warm about this unit is the warmth you build up toting it around. But what the hell. have FUN.

[@BigTrouble324]

You obviously haven't tried one of these units in good working condition. But,the echorec2 T7E is the holy grail tone. Used by Pink floyd (It has 6 tubes.) Dawner prince: boonar comes close, but still cannot compare to the real thing. I know, because I got one, in mint condition. It sounds HUGE!

[@maezarr]

Very nice explanation and demonstration. I'm able to recreate these tones quite effectively in the Fractal Axe-FX Ultra (with no hiss or parts to maintain either ;-)

[@defikilla]

hahaha good answer

[@defikilla]

Barrett is the god behind echo... Gilmour just kept doing what Syd started.

[@tommyclay]

thought I heard the beginning to 'Sheep' there for a min

[@jonathanallred8179]

Anybody seen the brand new one?!:)

[@hiwattbob]

i'm not sure. i believe it's late '60's, early 70's.

[@hiwattbob]

yeah man I do still have it--i'd be happy to help, send me a message and i'll give you my email.

[@prompen3]

Remeber Gilmour used the Echorec II this looks like an Echorec

[@deadmoldable]

it has no tempo? seems not so hard to implement. y not just change the motor-speed?

[@zzxprezz]

notsuitable 4 shadows music very rough
