2. High Fidelity

The ECA-102 is equipped with two Springs, each having different
reverberation times. This unique double pick-up system creates
the most natural, high fidelity reverberated sound. A convenient
slide control on the front panel provides instant adjustment of
the reverberation time, from anywhere between 0 and 3 seconds.

3. Microphone Mixing

Interesting input mixing is possible by simply connecting a
microphone to the jack provided on the front panel. Mixing the
input signals of the line or tape with those of the microphone and
adding reverberation to the result produces an enjoyable 4-channel
effect.

4. Simultaneous Recording On Two Tape Decks And Monitoring
With 3-Head Units

A combination of any .two tape decks, open reel, cassette or
cartridge, can be connected to the tape jacks on the rear panel.
Signals having the desired amount of reverberation can be recorded
simultaneously on both decks. Monitoring of the recorded sound
is possible if 3-head tape decks are used.

5. Easzo-Operate

Featuring easy-to-use, all pushbutton changeover switches for
simple trouble-free operation. No further connections are necessary
when changing from 4 channel to 2-channel operation, simply push
the appropriate mode button.
