The model was taken from a specific Italian machine built in the 1960s that has survived nearly sixty years without repair or modification, so the emulation describes a real unit rather than its catalogue specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAn echo that a tape delay cannot stand in for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA magnetic drum with playback heads arranged around it behaves differently from a tape loop: it spaces repeats differently, loses high frequencies differently and wavers differently. This is the sound associated with guitar and electric organ in 1960s and 1970s psychedelic rock, and an ordinary tape echo does not imitate it convincingly. Echoplay reproduces the original's non-linear frequency response, the spontaneous fluctuations in drum speed, the subtle tube-like distortion of the preamp stage and the gentle hiss that is part of the character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFour heads with footswitch control while playing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour playback heads are available, and a dedicated footswitch handles head four, so echo density changes mid-song without reaching for a knob. Controls for drum speed, head alignment and hiss let you set the sound anywhere from a short, clean thickening to a spreading, unstable space. The dry signal runs through a fully analogue path with no digital conversion, leaving the instrument's tone intact with the effect engaged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRotating magnetic drum echo emulation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModelled on a specific 1960s Italian machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour playback heads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDedicated footswitch for playback head four\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrum speed, head alignment and hiss controls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReproduces the non-linear response and tube-like preamp character\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully analogue dry path\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned and handcrafted in Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: magnetic drum echo emulation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlayback heads: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFoot control: dedicated footswitch for head 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry path: analogue, no digital conversion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 114.3 x 33.8 x 94 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower: 9 V DC centre negative, 300 mA, PSU included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: Crumar, Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Crumar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54068724531537,"sku":"60285","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/CrumarEchoplayMagneticDrumEchoPedal1.jpg?v=1787053457","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/fr\/products\/crumar-echoplay-magnetic-drum-echo-pedal","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
