Hi,

I've been playing around with an HH Multi Echo:

I've moved the heads to Meazzi spacings and it's sounding good.

More as I make more mods!

I had one like that, that the late Ron William's (drifter) modified in the same way as you are doing, it was a nice sounding tape echo, but being tranny, it had it's limitations. It's now with Geoff Strachan.

Hi Alan,

But it may not always be transistorised!

It doesn't sound bad as it is actually, just got to sort out the
input and output impedances as well.

I had one of those HH Echo machines about 8 years ago. It sounded really nice, but sadly the tape loop kept fouling up & I lost patience with it, not being a techy type, & sold it on.

It sounded OK last night if a little wobbly.
