As promised, here is a comparison between the standard Doepfer tank and the Accutronics: http://www.distantdimensions.com/reverb_tank_demo.mp3 1. The first sound is the dry source. 2. Next is the 100% wet Doepfer/Belton tank with no feedback or emphasis. 3. Third is the Belton tank again with 50% emphasis and feedback just shy of oscillation. 4. Fourth is the Accutronics tank with no feedback or emphasis. 5. Lastly is the Accutronics with slightly too much feedback, which I turned down as it got too hot. As you can hear, there is some buzzing in the signal from the Accutronics. I haven't made any attempt to find an ideal placement for the unit yet, so the noise may be a result of that, or possibly the long audio cable which is hanging down directly behind several Doepfer power supplies. Hopefully it can be resolved easily, rather than being a consequence of selecting the wrong tank specifications. Fingers crossed... The two tanks have completely different sounds, and I'm happy to have both. --- In Doepfer_a100@yahoogroups.com, "deastman2" <deastman2@...> wrote: > > Will do. I should have it in about a week.
