Step back into the sonic landscape of the 70s with the Pulsar Audio Echorec, a meticulously crafted software emulation of the classic Binson Echorec. This iconic device was pivotal in shaping the auditory aesthetics of legendary bands like Pink Floyd and The Shadows, renowned for its magnetic disk delay that offers a distinctive auditory signature, unlike traditional tape delays.

While the original hardware is a collector's dream, it's also notoriously fragile. The Pulsar Echorec plugin, however, brings you the full spectrum of its celebrated sound without the maintenance headaches. Experience the authentic warmth and character of the all-tube input section, faithfully recreated to capture every nuance of the original. Pulsar has enhanced the Echorec with modern conveniences, like real-time motor speed adjustments and tempo syncing, giving you unprecedented creative control.

The plugin goes beyond mere replication by modeling three distinct Echorec units, each with its own unique character—from pristine magnetic echoes to gritty, worn-in textures. Dive into stereo drift and creative modulations that allow for mesmerizing pitch variations and wow-and-flutter effects. Even in its 'Off Mode,' the Echorec imparts a lush color to your sound, ensuring that every mix is infused with the analog warmth that digital delays often lack.
