jan 1, 1972 - EMT 250

Description:

EMT (a German company) are credited with the first digital reverb unit, the EMT 250. They have recently created a digital plugin that replicates the EMT 250. EMT released a primitive digital reverb in 1972, the rack mount 144, but its capabilities were limited, and very few survive. But in 1976, EMT teamed up with American electronics company Dynatron to create the EMT 250 Electronic Reverberator Unit-and the first "practical" digital reverb was born.
