Is the original Echorec such a famous thing? If they wanted to replicate a tape delay wouldn't they go for at least the Echoplex?

It's a pretty unique thing, using a spinning disc, rather than tape or chips to create the delay. 

Good detailed writeup here:  http://www.gilmourish.com/?page_id=74

It's a really great delay sound, so I could see it being popular. Though not sure it justifies a whole big-size pedal for that alone. Maybe it'll just be Timeline2.

One possibility is that it's a Timeline 2 with an Echorec built in.

I was wondering about the big box drive pedal idea.  Wonder if you could build in cabinet emulation, and compete with all the modellers out there.

Well I guess @Gassage would buy a shedload ... but it would be hardly a major announcement from a company that has a wide range of echoey pedals ..  ;-)

On the other hand they could be going into amp modelling .. that would be big and a departure from purely effects.

I am chairman of the Strymon haters club. Not a chance.

What happens if they come out with a pedal that perfectly replicates David Gilmour's sound, that you can't distinguish from all the Cornish ones?

Nope. I am stubborn.

What would you do if Gilmour himself started using one?

I've been told that Strymon is producing a pedal called the Gilmore - Timeline shaped unit with Dave's basic pedal board for all those classic tones .. ;-)

Anderton's have posted something cryptic ... could be more than one announcement so an Echorec  could be on the cards but not the big announcement. They hint at a multi-FX box with delays and reverbs etc from other Strymon pedals. Could be a load of balls but then why post it?

Well, have a look at my board and I think you'll find, out of 14 pedals I own, there's one that's the same as Gilmour's, which is an electric mistress.

So why would I?

Well, he certainly has bought a Ram's Head Muff and an original Powerboost off me.

No I fear he did ‘other things’ to them. 

darcym

rack mount versions of the big box has been something they have hinted at in the past 

Dominic

I think it will be an Expensive pedal............they're very good at those.

VJIves

This will have to be tiny and incredible to make me feel any regret at all for buying the Boonar.

Flawless digital emulation of a stacked Boss Metal Zone and a Dod American Metal.

Yep, looks like it. It's what they're good at though, I guess. An Echorec was always going to be the grail for them, really, let's face it.

hotpickups

I'm gonna sound a heathen I know but in a live context who the hell can tell the difference with different delay types   I won't be buying one
