Selmer - Truvoice Echo 400

" This unit was produced by Selmer-Truvoice in parallel with the Echo 200 for a short period in 1960. It is the one being used by Bert Weedon on the demonstration record which is shown at the bottom of this page. It was supplied in a red/cream case with a hinged top; rather similar to the record players of the time, and actually was a very technically advanced and well-built piece of equipment. It utilised three replay heads with a closed loop tape which was longer than the average Copicat/Meazzi size. A variable speed tape drive was used, and two channels were utilised for the signal return to the play-back head, which must have provided for some very interesting multi-tap combinations! Very few of these units must have been made - a reasonable guess would be less than fifty. “

JMI - VOX ECHO "Long Tom" MkII Echo Deluxe

“ Reso popolare dalla leggenda britannica della chitarra, Hank Marvin degli "Shadows", il Vox "Long Tom" MkII Echo Deluxe simulava meccanicamente un effetto eco per le chitarre o la voce utilizzando la tecnologia derivata da un registratore a nastro audio. Il "Long Tom" Echo Deluxe fu progettato e prodotto dalla Jennings Musical Instruments (JMI) di Dartford, Kent, UK e fu introdotto nel catalogo dei prodotti Vox del settembre 1964 e nel listino prezzi. Apparve per l'ultima volta nel catalogo Vox VSEL del 1968.”

landscape fm - HC-TT

HUMAN CONTROLLED TAPE TRANSPORT

“ The HC-TT is a compact cassette manipulation device which allows you to manually play a cassette with your hands. The resulting sound can be incredibly similar to scratching a vinyl record. Sound will only be produced while your hands are turning either of the large playback knobs. By turning these knobs you are directly rotating the cassette spindles which moves the tape across the internal tape head. The knobs “play” a regular cassette forwards and backwards. There is no motor in this device, so direction and speed is left to the performer. The illuminated touch switch is a momentary mute for both the mono audio output as well as the CV/Gate outputs. The Arches and Moons touch plates allow for feedback and other strange interactions.  This device does not record audio but only outputs pre-recorded audio from any cassette tape.”
