I never seem to be able to find these things except at ridiculous prices.

I grabbed a  Multivox MX-312 Multi Echo off Craigslist recently and finally 
hooked it up to  #857. Holy shit! Nothing compares to tape echo and spring 
reverb. The 312 is  an off brand knockoff of the Roland RE-201 Space Echo 
with some additional  features. Particularly "swell reverb" which adds a 
swelling echo to the reverb  signal. Lush doesn't begin to describe it. My 
advice: If you haven't tried  your tron thru an old tape echo/spring reverb, you 
haven't lived. Tape to tape  is a beautiful sound.  


Now back to playing some Starless...
