Dynacord Echocord Mini Tape Echo inc. LO-out and wet out modification!
COMPLETELY OVERHAULED!
In beautiful condition with new tape, new rubber pinch roller(refurbished by me) 3 good plastic guidance rollers and a new one. Demagnetized and polished heads !
Some minor wear on the housing and on one of the knobs but hey.... it's 45 years old !
The plastic housing has been completely washed clean. Inside the housing everything has been made dustfree.
The Running mechanism is adjusted and cleaned. The motor shaft is polished and super smooth. All roller shaft holes are lubricated with machine oil. The messing shaft of the rubber pinch roller has been lubricated with bronze oil.
The sliding mechanism is lubricated with PTFE and runs smoothly.
All potentiometers are cleaned with professional washspray and air blown cleaned.
The electronics have been tested. All electrolytic capacitors (elco's) have been replaced, including the power supply!
All transistors have been replaced for more modern and quieter BC549 and BC559 types.
All internal open adjust potmeters have been replaced for closed new ones.
Shield is on the playhead and that reduces the humm of the interference of the AC motor significantly
The input/output DIN sockets has been replaced for JACKS socket so no more hassle with DIN to JACK cables. You can also choose LINE or GUITAR input (left input or right input). Line is louder and guitar softer in terms of input volume.
100% wet out modification is done. This means that you only have the echo signal without the direct sound of the input. So now you can eg record the echo effect separately on a track without the direct input sound. So you now have a choice of the normal output with echo and direct sound and 100% wet out only. You can use both outputs simultaneously. PAY ATTENTION ! The wet out only output is softer because the amplifier is bypassed so you will have to turn it up a bit on your mixer or amplifier. The advantage is that you have less noise with the wet out only output.
Sounds fantastic again for a 45 year old machine !
