The old Italian made Echo unit T7E model, was the most famous of the many models produced by the Italian Binson company during the 50’ & ’60s and the one most used by Pink Floyd for their first 10 albums.
With the “Motor Adj.” you have the possibility to increase the overall delay time, reaching around 740ms keeping the Heads in Sync, so to make it suitable for a larger number of musical applications than it’s predecessor.
The Echosex 2° T7E is not only a simple “Reissue” of the glorious “Old Italian Echo”.. but an improvement of it. The thinking was about what the well known issues of the old units were, and the different needs of the musicians of today.
Three main principles guided the design of this unit, and two important goals:
– Create a real alternative to buying an old, expensive, unreliable and very rare unit.
– Create a device that really keeps the musicality and creativity of the “Old Italian Echo”.
– The First point is already very clear.. no mechanical parts means no maintenance needed, and this was the main issue for that kind of unit, and it was simply the best engineering way in the 50’s, but today, we have better ways to be used to reproduce the magic without keep the pain of maintenance.
– Improving the Audio Quality was another important goal, as the quality of studio gear in the digital era needs very high quality standard for any device, so they designed a Pure Class A preamp section made by Cascode J-FET to obtain the insane 7Hz to 161000 Hz @1db. frequency response range. So an outstanding linearity.
