PSP BinAmp

PSP BinAmp is a class -A- triode preamp emulation. The specific preamp's implementation is based on the legendary Binson Echorec 2 delay. Echorec 2 was one of a line of famous magnetic drum delays designed by Binson Amplifiers Company since 50s. The Echorec 2 was released in 1960 probably as the best sounding in the line. It had unprecedented quality compared to tape delays of the era, warmth and musical sound due to class -A- triode tube design of audio section and distinctive character.

Although the entire machine, its sound and design was incredible PSP BinAmp grew from an inspiration of the ingenious sound of its preamplifier. 

Triode: an amplification vacuum tube (thermionic valve) called triode was the first and the simplest of amplification components of the tube era. 

Class -A- audio path: a circuit in which all components process both: positive and negative halves of the signal. This kind of design results in an asymmetric nonlinearities and a build up of even order harmonics in the output signal. Although class -A- is not the most efficient it is definitely one of the most desirable layout when the character of the sound takes over the transparency
