Product Detail
Echoson by Overloud is a remarkable recreation of a legendary Italian magnetic drum delay unit. Its unique tone was the key to Pink Floyd's iconic sound in the 70s. With a super - realistic recreation of the original lush and ethereal tone, it offers independent control of each playback head. The stereo operating mode has separate controls for left and right channels, and dual - mono, stereo, and reverb modes help you craft wider soundscapes. You can adjust the disc speed to change the delay time and even sync it to the song's BPM. It comes with a built - in parametric equalizer, user - adjustable wow/flutter, and electrical noise. Features like multilevel undo - redo, A/B comparison, and numerous presets from real mixing sessions make it a great tool. The Scribble Strips let you take notes on the plugin panel. In stereo mode, you can process left and right channels differently, send delays across channels, or combine them. You can also control playback heads individually and choose different delay times, unlike the original hardware. It's available as various plugins and a standalone app for both Mac and Windows, with 32 - bit and 64 - bit support. You can authorize it on up to three of your computers and one USB stick easily. Supported DAWs include Pro Tools, Logic Pro, Cubase, and many others.
Using the Overloud GEM Echoson is straightforward. First, install it on your computer following the system requirements. For Mac and Windows, make sure your CPU, RAM, and screen resolution meet the minimum standards. Once installed, open your supported DAW and load the Echoson plugin. You can start by choosing from the many presets designed in real mixing sessions. To customize the sound, use the independent playback head controls. You can turn them on or off as you like and decide which ones feed back to the magnetic drum. In stereo mode, play around with different settings for the left and right channels, or try sending delays to the opposite channel or combining them. Adjust the disc speed to change the delay time, and if you want, sync it to the song's BPM. Use the built - in parametric equalizer to fine - tune the tone. And don't forget you can use the Scribble Strips to take notes on the plugin panel. When it comes to authorization, it's a simple one - click software procedure on up to three of your computers and one USB stick. As for maintenance, keep your operating system and DAW updated to ensure smooth performance. If you face any issues, check the compatibility with your DAW and make sure your computer meets the system requirements.
