Re: [analogue_systems] RS290 Flash Update and more

2003-07-01 by Peter Grenader

All of the above - actually, all of the below.  The RS290 is a DSP-based
delay, which is fast enough to give you chorus and flanging effects, and
slow enough for that age-old echoplex thing   thing   thing   thing   thing
thing   thing...

The best part of it though, is the fact that it is set up for analog control
- so if it were set up as a flanger, an external voltage can be supplied
which would bring the repeat rate down to the echoplex range but quick -
it's all very fun.  A matter of fact, all of the I/Os on the unit have an
external control input.  If you've got a pot to shape something, there's a
VC input for it as well.

There are up to two independant assign pots (depending on if you have the
expander, which I would strongly suggest you do so that future OSs and
presets can be loaded).  These assign pots also have their own VC input and
are assignable through the unit's software to control anyone of a number of
things, including:  pan position, damping, bit depth, stereo echo depth, LFO
frequency, LFO amount and more.  And yes, there is also an internal software
LFO which can also be assigned to a bunch of stuff inside the unit as well.

The unit also turns into a roast beef sandwitch at midnight, and will
mysteriously appear again in the morning as a delay unit --> A tribute the
the excellence of Bob Willian's programmer's knowledge.
