Vorg Echo Orbit-1

The Vorg echo orbit 1 is a nice device with a nice soft character in terms of sound and also quite quiet for a tape echo.

Comes from the same period as the Roland space echo and also looks a bit like it in terms of color and model, not in terms of sound I think.


Fixed echo times and also double echo times to make triplets, no feather reverb or pseudo reverb on board (reverberation due to a very short echo time with extension)

It is a speed variable motor that allows you to control the echo times. This is of course very nice.


The disadvantage of this machine is the motor and the drive by means of an elastic band, just like a belt-record player. They become limp over time (or decay and break) and can run off the engine.

The elastics are no longer available, but a plate elastic is used which is almost identical to the original.

The engine is no longer available, so if it is broken .... end of story or very lucky if you find one second hand.
