Its the latest product of a new high-end Overloud plugin line, called Gems, dedicated to mixing and mastering. Many contemporary engineers use it on vocals, keyboards and drums to achieve a unique tone.
ECHOSON, the revolutionary simulation of a legendary Drum Delay, originally manufactured by the Italian company Binson. ECHOSON goes beyond the mere simulation of the original unit, by adding features not available in the hardware. One of the main additions is the option to double the processor panel to have it working on a stereo pair of audio channels with cross-feedbacks between the channels.

Beyond the original hardware...

You can switch on/off the playback heads individually and decide which ones are fed back to the magnetic drum
