This is excellent work. I really done want to be critical, but you mentioned in the comments about building another version. If you do, try putting all the controls on the front panel, accessible with the switches. This would allow for greater control as a performance tool. Like I said this is an excellent build. I look forward to seeing more of your work.
Thanks for tuning in! The 'Manchurian candidate' effect is just a special feature of my DIY echo-guaranteed to make any lullaby sound like a top-secret transmission. As for the rhythm, I'll keep working on it until it's 'better than the best'. 😄 Keep the feedback coming!"
@@analog_music_lover I am quite certain that you and your little mind control gadget are far more dangerous than TikTok or the most diabolical James Bond nemesis. keep up the good work, my friend!
@@frederickbaugher8361 Ha, love the shout-out, my friend! I'll keep channeling all that 'diabolical' energy into dropping beats rather than world domination plans. Stay tuned for more gadgets that are shaken, not stirred!
Pretty great! This has a lot of potential. Curious as to what electronics were used to get the signal onto and back off the tape from the heads and how you set up the audio mixing. I like it. The guy from "Look Mum, No Computer would go wild with a DIY project like this. Good work!
Good way to demonstrate basic principals. Well executed too. Things like "Drum Memory" from the past may interest you greatly. Also "delay lines" used for memory as well as analog special effects.
This is so cool man! You did a fantastic job, Ive been wanting to make one but Im having trouble figuring out which wires coming from my tape heads go where! Awesome machine, thank you!
Thanks so much! I'm thrilled you like it. If you're having trouble with the wiring, maybe I can help. I'm thinking of making a tutorial on the wiring process-would that be useful to you? Let me know what specific issues you're running into, and I'll do my best to guide you. Keep on creating!
@@analog_music_lover Most definitely. Since all I have are a handfull of heads I salvaged from old non-working tape decks, I have no idea -I had no idea so many wires came out of each one. I feel if I could figure out which wire goes to the input, output, control etc. that would give me personally a good feel for how to actually go about hooking them all up to work together as a machine.
You should talk about the internal electronics sometime. Did you modify electronics from an existing tape machine, or create custom electronics? Love what you've done!! ❤
@@analog_music_lover no sir. You are incredible and I too hope to build a machine just as you have. This is brilliant and with very nice execution. Although not totally “aesthetic” the sound 1000% is a total vibe. And I congratulate you. Have you built anymore? Or have you thought about making one that “looks” as cool as it sounds?
Good better best, and let it rest. Too good is better, And better best. I have been programmed. To do what? I dont know yet 😱 But in all seriousness, im very impressed and inspired! Great job! 😊
@@analog_music_lover Thanks for nice explain....but i asked if there was something like wiring diagram that you referred to, cause i wanna make tape echo system like yours(that i like) and have been found easy wiring diagram of bias oscillater....
@@analog_music_lover Perhaps we can negotiate a price for you to build another one identical, if not better! I'm sure we both can imagine a number of dollars that will inspire you, kevin!
@@analog_music_lover I'm willing to pay you 300 dollars canadian for one of your magnificent, genius machines! That is my offer! It's good, better, BEST! Now I'm gonna let my offer rest! Until good becomes better and better becomes breast! 😌
To tell you the truth that the machine was homemade by me in China about a year ago, then I put it in my vintage collection room. Now I have been moved to Ithaca NY. I will stay here for 1 year. It would be way too difficult to mail it from China to Canada, as you know, only me could find where it is located in the vintage collection room.
A great build and very clever. But to me the elephant in the room is that there is tons of flutter. Am I the only one that can hear it? And that's just by listening to your voice through it. I bet a piano/high guitar notes sound terrible! Unless you have a remedy? Sorry.
How are you summing the signals of the heads together? can you have all heads engaged at the same time? I have no knowledge on electronics, but I'm trying to restore some old tape units to try building a tape echo, I always wanted to have one. Fantastic work! ;)
@@carlosdelrio8309 Dear friend, I Will show more detail of this machine such as the diagram of circuit. It is not good to use all the reproducing head at the same time.
I have been doing research into creating my own. As I have already created my own reverb device this was on the list of things to create myself.

I do appreciate your lovely and professional ❣️ comment.
This is a very interesting build. However, I think we have all been programmed as Manchurian candidates, listening to the bed. Better best rhythm.

Thx for your comment.

Your performance reminded me of an old school reggae interlude, love it!
Job well done.
I have viewed your channel, your reel to reel recorders are of hi end.
@@analog_music_lover Yes I love to collect them!
You inspire me to build my own, I love this! Thanks for showing us, friend. c:
Have fun!

@@analog_music_lover Hey, I second that. I'm planning a new tape delay. It would really help!
BRO. this is so cool! I wanna build one now! thanks for posting this.
Nicely done! Good job with the tape wrap on the heads, so no pressure pads required. A little smoother splice might help, though. :-)
I am modifying it will show the better one later on

This is so cool and a ton of fun I bet. Nice work! :)
This is freaking awesome 😍
Could you send a scheme of this nice tape delay machine please?
definitely the better best
I don't have a wonderful accent , but I have tried my best.
@@analog_music_lover no sir. You are incredible and I too hope to build a machine just as you have. This is brilliant and with very nice execution.

Sunshine, you made my day!
Im gonna hear that good better best rhyme in my dreams tonight 😂
good better best
Never let it rest
Good better best,
and let it rest.
Too good is better,
And better best.
I have been programmed. To do what? I dont know yet 😱
But in all seriousness, im very impressed and inspired! Great job! 😊
This is so cool!
beautiful machine!
Good Better Best.... 😂 love it!! Awesome build! Cheers!
this is really cool! thanks for sharing
nice echo!! how did you make bias oscillatet in thiis echoo system??
I used a high bias frequency as 130 khz to adapt to different tape speeds.
@@analog_music_lover Thanks for nice explain....but i asked if there was something like wiring diagram that you referred to, cause i wanna make tape echo system like yours(that i like) and have been found easy wiring diagram of bias oscillater....
now use all 3 heads simultaneously
Wow this looks like a cool project.. a tape delay in 2021 awesomely done
Would your share the building tutorial? Regards
You don't happen to have the schematics for the innards of this build? Or some references?
Are you using multiple stereo preamps and a mix circuit or, are those not r/p combo heads?
I use multiple mono heads. And I used multiple preamplifiers.
Truly awesome and inspiring. Thanks!
brooo i love this!!!! awesome. thank you for sharing.
Best ! Really excellent machine.
I do appreciate your lovely comment.
Ok i agree u r genius 🙏🙏
Beautiful
This is very cool! Thank you for sharing.
Please show inside
Wow that’s amazing! 💤
great video! i really enjoyed your singins :0-)
太好了!你的口音非常可爱!
这个磁带机还需要进一步改进。我英语口语很不好,见笑了!!
Can I buy one of these from you fully assembled?
Sorry that it's not for sale.I only made one and the quality is so good enough.

What’s the schematic!
great job!
I love it!
Wow its really cool!
Running at 15/16?

That's really cool. Thanks for sharing :)
звук шикарный. Именно такой звук и ждёшь от подобного прибора
really great man such good work
awesome!
Brilliant :)
I feel ashamed of the poor English
@@analog_music_lover don’t worry
do you consider selling one of these?
It is not good enough although I wanna sell it in the future. I hope to modify it better and best.
@@analog_music_lover ok thanks, please keep me in mind if you decide selling the thing
@@analog_music_lover yeah you should 1000% sell these
Id buy one!
@@analog_music_lover he already has everything he needs. It sounds perfect. He is able to interest many in such a design, in which he is.
A great build and very clever. But to me the elephant in the room is that there is tons of flutter. Am I the only one that can hear it? And that's just by listening to your voice through it. I bet a piano/high guitar notes sound terrible! Unless you have a remedy? Sorry.
Yes, the W&F needs to be further improved. I am improving it now.Thank you for your advice
