2. Asosiy xususiyatlar
- Vintage Tape Warmth: Experience the rich tape saturation and warmth heard on classic recordings from the '50s and '60s. Deco creates luscious tape compression, saturation, and time-based effects.
- Master of Saturation: Deco's Saturation side enhances your tone with variable gain, from warm and smooth to full overdrive. The Classic voice is derived from open reel mastering machines, while the all-new Cassette voice is based on the Auto Level Control (ALC) feature of high-end cassette decks from the '70s, providing a dynamic and fat tone with built-in compression.
- Vintage Studio Revival (Doubletracker): The Doubletracker side operates as two tape decks in series, achieving hyper-authentic vintage flanging, phasing, chorusing, slapback, and echo by changing the offset between the Reference and Lag decks via the Lag Time control.
- Full MIDI Control: Easily sync the Lag Deck’s delay time to MIDI Clock, use an expression pedal to control Blend, or switch between Classic and Cassette mode remotely. Features 300 preset locations.
- Yuqori darajadagi apparat: Includes a premium discrete Class A JFET analog input circuit, stereo inputs and outputs, rear-panel mono/stereo switch, TRS MIDI, USB-C for MIDI and preset management, and a powerful ARM processor.
