Binson Echorec

The Binson Echorec is a delay effects unit produced by Italian company Binson. Unlike most other electromechanical delays, the Echorec uses an analog magnetic drum recorder instead of a tape loop.

After using Meazzi Echomatic machines, Hank Marvin of the Shadows began using Binson echoes. He used various Binson units on record and stage for much of the mid-to-late 1960s. Marvin continued to use Binsons until c.1979/1980, when he began using a Roland Space Echo.
