Telefunken Echomixer - Modified

Rapidly becoming a modern mix classic: a Telefunken Echomixer for sale serviced and modified – ready to put to work in the studio. A testament to early sixties German engineering and build quality.

It can be a very clean-sounding unit but overloading the inputs can work wonders as you push the germanium circuitry.

Sought-after by award-winning producers, engineers and artists.

This unit has been serviced and earthed for electrical safety and sounds fabulous: these units have a particularly smooth unspring-like sound when used lightly.

Channel A is for unprocessed signals, Channels B & C pass through the spring reverb.

Please note that this is a very sensitive spring unit and will need to be positioned away from vibrations and knocks.

Of course it sounds great with guitars – but we’ve found it really shines as a studio effect with whatever you put through it: keys, synths, vocals, loops, beats… it has a character that is very had to replicate digitally and sounds great in the mix – almost plate-like (and of course you can always give it a little kick if things are getting too polite during the mix…).

Try using a little tape delay before sending to a spring reverb, or use a digital/plug-in reverb and send the wet output from that to the spring to add character.
