Pulsar Audio – Echorec v1.7.7 for WiN

Vintage Echorec devices are known for their richness, self-oscillation, and oversound, which influenced the sound of 70s music. However, they are also known for being fragile and difficult to maintain.

The Pulsar Echorec plugin provides a precise emulation of this legendary echo device. Furthermore, the original version has been enhanced with numerous improvements, such as the ability to change the motor speed (and, consequently, the delay time) in real time or synchronize it to any tempo, including touch-based tempo.

Three different devices were also accurately modeled, operating under different conditions, to reproduce everything from the cleanest magnetic delay to the most grunge.

These additions, along with the Binson Echorec 2’s signature sound, make this echo processor an essential tool for any engineer looking to add that subtle analog edge that’s sorely missing from digital delay plugins.

The most iconic magnetic disk delay of the 70s

The Pulsar Echorec is the best software emulation of the iconic echo/delay device of the same name, released by the Italian company Binson in the 1960s.

A 70’s Sound Signature

This magnetic disc delay has a sound that is distinct from the tape delays used at the time and was a major influence on the sound of many 70’s bands such as Pink Floyd, The Shadows, Jimmy Page and others.

Many subsequent bands were inspired by the sounds of that era. And the Echorec is still used by many artists seeking a retro or experimental sound. So if you enjoy the vocal effects of The Strokes, the psychedelic atmosphere of Tame Impala, or the sound of Arctic Monkeys, the Pulsar Echorec is for you.

A sound design tool with CHARACTER

Creative modulations, mechanical warbling, crunchy distortions, unique drum textures… Pulsar Echorec creates a very dense sound that lies somewhere between a typical delay, reverb, and layering. This means you can use it to add depth to a sample, create rhythmic and tonal variations, custom fade-ins and fade-outs, pitch modulation, and much more.
