I already pre-ordered mine. Yes, it's crazy money but I had the honor of playing with an original Binson Echorec and it was magic. I have the Boonar and it's basically always on. So I could give up many other pedals but not that one and now with all these updates... it's a must-have for me. Can't wait to have it.
I have the Boonar for years and an original 60’ Binson Echorec as well and they are definitely in the same ball park and IMO no other pedal maker come as close as Dawner Prince does , today I’ve paid the deposit for the Boonar deluxe , can’t wait to get it , thx for the great demo Brett , cheers from Phuket Thailand
That Magnatone sounds so dang good. Excellent choice to demonstrate the Boonar through. I’ve always had a soft spot for Echorec-style pedals & this is about the best I’ve ever heard. So many creative possibilities. Good stuff, thanks Burgs.
I had never heard of the binson echorec until Mick and Dan covered it on That Pedal Show. Still one of the best episodes, watching them lose it over the original unit they featured. “Epic!!”
This unit was one of only two and had to go back to the factory post-video. There's another on the way (production model) so I'll go swell-happy for another vid when it shows up, hopefully before too long.
I felt sketchy about buying my Volante. Expensive. But I do love it. This Boonar thing is pricy like a good rifle. But it sounds amazing. And it's MIDI. Wow. They should send me one! Lol!
I sincerely doubt it. Volante is (more or less) $400, this is $1,200. You'll not find a $800 difference soundwise. I have both the Volante and the original Boonar (bought both used) and paid less than half for what this new one costs.
Well I guess it can only do a drum setting, whereas the volante can do tape and studio tape, so it’s more focused and less versatile. As for how the drum compares, yeah, I’m interested too! I’m especially keen to know how the valve actually ads to the sound. I’m guessing there will soon be countless comparisons on RUclips. Geez, this pedal with its screen and valve are giving me GAS…
If I played clean more often I’d be all over this. Unfortunately those warm lush delays are kind of wasted on me. Hard rock and hard blues player here.
Pedal is great I’m sure….but price point feels off $800-900 maybe. I have old Boonar echorec, the volante, the guru Echosex 2T7e and 3 both with tubes….but for 1200 I might as well go the extra 900 and just get the Binson reissue
The Magnatone sounds great before you'd even stepped on the delay... nice unit mate, warm.. tails decay off beautifully.. and its flexible as. Wonder how much voltage is hitting that valve(?)... Do l need one and do l want one? Good demo Burgs!
I have a TRex Echorec for the studio,a real magnetic drum which is just beautiful, but I would never go out with it. Thats what the Boonars for. A digital recreation, Not too expensive and sounds good. This one…🤔…doesn’t sit in either camp. I get it. It’s gonna be Expensive, but with everything else that’s out there that can do this sort of thing (and in Stereo)I can’t see the point in it.
This is killer, but I dont think it would replace my Strymon Volante. The Volante is 1/3rd the price, can seamlessly switch between 2 presets, can pan the individual heads with no menu diving dead center to anywhere between left and right, and give me a looper to boot. Plus the Volante gives me drum, tape and studio delay modes with an additional spring reverb. I do however own that Magnatone amp and it's never leaving the studio!
I have the Boonar , the Echosex 2, the Binson echorec 1 (4 knobs) tube version and although the first two pedals sounding great they are quite different in comparison to the real one
No tape as it's based on a drum delay but no it doesn't have a drum either. I think that like the Volante, it's a modelled delay tuned to sound , control and behave like an Echorec. They've also added a tube at the front end to warm up the sound. It may or may not sound exactly like what it's impersonating but it'll be a lot more reliable than a mechanical delay. Sounds great but I'll stick with the Volante as 1200 USD is too rich for me
Its good but doesn’t seem to have the magic of an original - clear but somewhat sterile. I will try it out though as you can’t always tell on You Tube. I have an original Binson Echorec into my 10-yr old Magnatone Stereo Twilighter (fantastic amp). For gigging I use a Catalinbread Echorec.
I’d just get a cheaper stereo pedal, and use two of the normal Boonars, or two Catalinbread Echorecs. There are some really cool stereo, analog delays, out right now, that can do so many things, for less than half that price. If money wasn’t a thing, I’d like to hear snd feel it in person, to see how they justify that price.
it’s an investment. the build quality and what goes into making such a thing warrants the pricetag. it’ll easily hold value. it sounds phenomenal, like a Deluxe Memory Man / Echorec on steroids
Le gars est particulièrement mauvais pour tester un délai de ce type non ? Comment mettre en valeur un delay à retard long en jouant tout le temps bien trop de notes ?
I don't wanna know how much it'll be in Aussie dollars mate!! If you were using it in a studio and recording a mob of bands, you cd justify getting one! It'd sound lush on a two amp wet/dry set up l bet.
George Harrison couldn't stand it reverb that is Look unless you've got money to burn forget it there's much more cheaper delay options out there including what's built into your own amp which improve all the time by manufacturers This is all a marketing ploy I'd say it's is a high end boutique pedal for.David Gilmour (who's utilized every worthy pedal & guitar sound imaginable)& the edge from u2 die hard Purists

Updates please
What a brilliant effect unit. Well done to Dawner Prince. I have a Boonar and love it!

Thanks for watching!
Sounds beautiful
Now there's a bit of kit I could get seriously lost in. ❤
beautiful pedal. it sounds stellar. the parameters are mind blowing.
That was the pedal Mister David Gilmour had on his table while recording his album… I wondered what was the 6 knob in this casing…
I can tell…this is heaven
I had never heard of the binson echorec until Mick and Dan covered it on That Pedal Show. Still one of the best episodes, watching them lose it over the original unit they featured. “Epic!!”
Genuinely wish there was a longer demo of the swell feature, seemed to pass it to by too quickly! More swell please!
This unit was one of only two and had to go back to the factory post-video. There's another on the way (production model) so I'll go swell-happy for another vid when it shows up, hopefully before too long.
@@BrettKingmanupdated video please!!
Ive never been jealous of Mr brett trying a new pedal, until today 😅
If it makes you feel better, I had to send it back. 😅
It’s a cool pedal and sounds awesome. My only criticism is that once we are into that price range the T-Rex Binson Echorec becomes a competitor...
Hope I will have a rack type with more options such as stereo ins/outputs
I felt sketchy about buying my Volante. Expensive. But I do love it. This Boonar thing is pricy like a good rifle. But it sounds amazing. And it's MIDI. Wow. They should send me one! Lol!
Volante is MIDI too.
@@hoover728 yup, works good too.
Do you feel like this would be such an improvement over the Volante? I own the Volante and it certainly scratches the Binson itch
Just wow! Really nice and musicial piece of gear 👏😁
Smooth
Quality kit indeed.
And great fun as well...😁👍👍
😎✌👍❤🖖
Brett that man cave is next level. Nice!!
G'day Burgs, are you still enjoying those 54s
Oh yes
It's very cool and sounds wonderful (especially with that Magnatone!!!) But I see no reason why this would ever replace my Volante
Ooooh fun!
Wondering how it compares to the volante. Is it something that you could truly appreciate in a live setting vs just in your bed room .
I sincerely doubt it. Volante is (more or less) $400, this is $1,200. You'll not find a $800 difference soundwise. I have both the Volante and the original Boonar (bought both used) and paid less than half for what this new one costs.

@@BaronsDujuyes!! That green eye looking at ya!
@@BaronsDujustill waiting on some comparisons!!
Sounds like God’s coming through your amp❤❤❤👍🏻👍🏻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🎸💪🏻🖖🏻😎✌🏻
No, just me. 😅
If I played clean more often I’d be all over this. Unfortunately those warm lush delays are kind of wasted on me. Hard rock and hard blues player here.
Have wanted a Boonar since first learning about them! Incredible stuff. And the dream has never been farther away 😅 💸
Crazy price
Are there menu options to add modulation separately to the aging knob so that you can get modulation without darkening the sound?
Dang!
Pedal is great I’m sure….but price point feels off $800-900 maybe. I have old Boonar echorec, the volante, the guru Echosex 2T7e and 3 both with tubes….but for 1200 I might as well go the extra 900 and just get the Binson reissue

Wonder how much voltage is hitting that valve(?)...
Do l need one and do l want one?
Good demo Burgs!

Why is it not stereo?

👍🏿🤘
I have the Boonar , the Echosex 2, the Binson echorec 1 (4 knobs) tube version and although the first two pedals sounding great they are quite different in comparison to the real one
They finally released it…. And then priced it out of most people’s range.
Does it actually have tape and tape heads?
No tape as it's based on a drum delay but no it doesn't have a drum either. I think that like the Volante, it's a modelled delay tuned to sound , control and behave like an Echorec. They've also added a tube at the front end to warm up the sound. It may or may not sound exactly like what it's impersonating but it'll be a lot more reliable than a mechanical delay.

@@pedalthang2079 Yes, it's pricey. I have the T.Rex Replicator Deluxe and I love the T.Rex Binson Echorec, but $2100 is way over my budget!
1200 USD. Holy christ batman
Its good but doesn’t seem to have the magic of an original - clear but somewhat sterile. I will try it out though as you can’t always tell on You Tube. I have an original Binson Echorec into my 10-yr old Magnatone Stereo Twilighter (fantastic amp). For gigging I use a Catalinbread Echorec.
Sounds great, but I like my Halo better. Nice studio 🎙 👌
They should release the tube preamp section as a separate unit.
great pedal for sure...but 1200 dollar....no thanks
Yeah I have a pair of marshal and Fender tube amps running wet/dry behind an HXFX for that
I’d just get a cheaper stereo pedal, and use two of the normal Boonars, or two Catalinbread Echorecs.

kkkkkkk 1200 dólares, nem brincando
it’s an investment. the build quality and what goes into making such a thing warrants the pricetag. it’ll easily hold value. it sounds phenomenal, like a Deluxe Memory Man / Echorec on steroids
For 1200 dolars would be nice to have stereo, at least.
Le gars est particulièrement mauvais pour tester un délai de ce type non ?
Comment mettre en valeur un delay à retard long en jouant tout le temps bien trop de notes ?
I wonder how this Boonar would sound going into a Friedman Brown Eye.
Sounds great . . . and then I went and checked the price and got sick to my stomach. Whoa.
I laughed for about 5 minutes straight when I saw the price
I don't wanna know how much it'll be in Aussie dollars mate!!
If you were using it in a studio and recording a mob of bands, you cd justify getting one!
It'd sound lush on a two amp wet/dry set up l bet.
I didn't think it would be that much
I’m sure this is awesome, has some great features over the normal Boonar…. but a bit out of my budget
I have an original Boonar and all I can say is... well
Cool as hell, but it’s just too expensive, for what it is.
right, it's a digital pedal..
George Harrison couldn't stand it reverb that is
Look unless you've got money to burn forget it there's much more cheaper delay options out there including what's built into your own amp which improve all the time by manufacturers
This is all a marketing ploy I'd say it's is a high end boutique pedal for.David Gilmour (who's utilized every worthy pedal & guitar sound imaginable)& the edge from u2 die hard Purists
Way way way too pricy.
I have the original boonar and its really really nice.
But 1200$ for the deluxe?!?
Way too much
250 quid ……..maybe
Grossly overpriced for a dsp pedal.
“Virtual” drum lol! Lower the price!!!
I can do this with my Boss DD-8 for 189 dollars.
