Hi Jesus > you could say this of any piece of vintage gear to be honest Not for all. Todays digital delay machines sound much better, and even the digital re-emulations of old tape/disc-delays are superior to the originals. But for other gear I still wait yearningly for a modern implementation of the seventies or eighties original. Two simple examples: A polyphonic synth with the basic voice architecture of the Yamaha CS-Series: velocity sensitive Hi/Lowpass-filtering on saw/rect with a sine from the same VCO which is routed parallel to the VCA. This is soundwise such a mighty architecture with astonishing few parameters - but we are still waiting for its revival. Juno-6 - THE simple hands on polyphonic synth with completely direct parameter access with full scale 5 octave keyboard, with an arpeggiator / sequencer stepped by triggers. Behringer started the project "Deepmind" with exactly this promise, and the outcome was an feature overloaded thing, with awful menuediving. Roland is already very close with the SH-01a, maybe they learn that the worlds population does not consist of beeings with japanese child-hands.

That is what is special about Binson Echorecs.
