Dawner Prince BOONAR Multi-Head Drum Echo Pedal

When Dawner Prince decided to revive one of the finest magnetic echo-delay machines ever built, they knew it would not be an easy task. Months of research, in-depth study, development and fine tuning were needed to duplicate the famed Binson Echorec.

Boonar is an effects pedal precisely designed to deliver sound and feel of the legendary Binson Echorec, a multi-tap magnetic drum echo unit. Everything is in there and more: from thick, juicy tube tone, glorious multi-dimensional echo repeats melted with haunting reverb decays, variable delay time up to a full second and separate playback heads switching system to an amazing and distinctive external looks dominated by a gold finish and green pulsating “magic-eye” level indicator, all packed in an incredibly compact stompbox form.

Boonar shares the same analog signal path as original Echorec but they used high voltage driven FETs as tube emulators and replaced magnetic memory drum with a DSP unit. They developed a special DSP code that faithfully replicates all the characteristics of the actual Binson memory system that they named a virtual magnetic drum.
