A boy can dream…

"Somebody" should come out with a more modern version that uses read/writeable CDs or DVDs and then simulate all the magnetic artifacts and aspects over top ...

I saw a guy once use a floppy disk and drive with an arduino board setup that he set up like this I think. He could also scratch his guitar playing like a dj. I think it was on YouTube years ago. Would be cool to take the technology people have no need for anymore. Dirty cheap parts.
 
Jokes aside, this is a marvelous feat of modern engineering and I'm sure it will sound awesome.

The only caveat with anything Binson being how do you plan on using it?

I feel some people have romantic notions about what a Binson is capable of given the modern lens we view delay capabilities though. Many don;t realize the old Binsons only had about 330ms of delay time MAX and that they don't do crazy multi-head delay stuff like everyone thinks.

One thing to note is that in the video from Namm, they state that the drum speed can be reduced to 50% from the original, which would mean 660ms of delay time on this one. Definitely a nice update from the old Binson units.
