Catalinbread Echorec

[petercreasey]

Thanks for clarifying Didier, folks might need to know that the sound was not the Catalinbread on it's own and that it needed help to achieve this result.
I tried the echorec and thought that it was very good but did not have the magic that some of the alternatives can achieve without assistance.

Another test by Jean-Claude with the same setup :

Thanks for this demo Didier,the so called extra effects are what I use
In my recordings all the time and are found on most amplifiers.

I have ordered a Catalinbread to try for myself,and if it comes close to
Jean Claude's sound I will be very pleased with it.

If the user knows what he's doing, the Catalinbread needs no modification if used through a good Vox or similar sounding amp. It does what it does naturally without compression or extra EQ.

Jean-Claude recorded his tests direct to recorder, without a guitar amp, so the effects he used were mostly some kind of amp emulation.

dave i have been reading on another site that you can use an 18 volt adapter or a 9 volt. what did you use please. they say you get a cleaner brighter sound with the 18 volt.
thanks peter

[dave robinson]

It is supposed to be an eighteen volt supply Peter, I bought mine from Mapllins.

thanks dave. peter

My Echorec arrived today and I am using it with my 9 volt PSU.

I have ordered an 18 volt to see what the difference is,at the moment
I am very pleased with it.
