In 1976 though, EMT blew a lot of minds by introducing the 250 Electronic Reverberator Unit. Here's some more info from another page: () “We were pretty excited about it, actually,” he recalls. “The Dynatron 255 is a device which has (the EMT’s) capability using modern technology, and therefore there aren’t the problems of maintenance that would come into play with the 250.”Īs for getting the chance to be a part of the birth of a hallmark piece of recording gear, Zaorski acknowledges that a good time was had by all. “People are familiar with the EMT 250,” he explained.
When asked to comment, Zaorski noted that as a packaging of the original EMT 250 algorithms into a box fresh for the year 2000, the Dynatron 255 seems to represent the best of both worlds for the legion modern-day aficionados of the EMT 250’s sound. A mere 250 of the 250’s were produced, and the surviving systems have the distinction of being one of the most sought-after “vintage” digital effects units. Barry Blesser determined the algorithms, and Ralph Zaorski (most recently a co-developer of the Dynatron 255) created the hardware for the EMT 250, which continues to set the standard for that effect with its classic sound 25 years after its introduction. In 1975, the US engineering contract firm Dynatron completed the R&D for the 250, an entirely electronic unit that re-revolutionized reverberation.
so anyways, I thought i'd add it as a bit of info & links etc, pooling as much stuff as I can find so people can see what these items look like at least & get some info - here's a top-panel picture of the 250: EMT 250 the EMT digital reverb, introduced in 1976, someone pointed out some errors we'd made, so i've redone the page which was chucked together rather quickly a few years back - EMT previously had bigtime studio hits with the 140 plate reverb (which sometimes get's modified to stereo) then a stereo 140 version & then the smaller and more manageable 240 goldfoil plate.
