The Catalinbread instructions recommending it being near the end of your pedal chain but it probably doesn't matter with it and the Eccamatic. One idea you might like is to put the Echorec before the Eccamatic and set the latter to the Reverb/Trem mode with the Trem off, using the Echorec for the echo and the Eccamatic to add some (or plenty of) reverb.

Probably the most basic default position for the Echorec is at the end or towards the end of your pedalboard. When placed after dirt pedals,
you’ll get more separation of the repeats and a more open sound. When placed before dirt pedals, you’ll get a sound where the repeats and
dry signal are more wrapped into one since the dirt pedal is compressing things together. But if you place the Echorec before a touch sensitive
overdrive pedal (such as one of our Foundation pedals like the RAH or the DLS), it will preserve and even enhance the dynamic qualities of the
overdrive pedal. Same with placing it before an overdriven non-master volume amp - you can go from clean to crunch without touching a knob
or foot switch.
