Reflex Dynamic Midi Reverberator

What we like about this Japanese Akaï sampler is first of all the sound, the polyphony, the resonant filter, and the 8 separate outputs. A good choice for the Home Studio.

High quality samples, very powerful filtering. A studio beast in 1U 19" Rack format. Optional front panel sound cards are still available. 14500 Francs in 1994. A very nice opportunity at a good price-quality ratio nowadays. 297 "Z-Plane" filters including flangers, parametric, translation, etc. A few notes and we understand all the E-MU genius.  

One year after the success of the original Yamaha SPX-90 (released in late 1985/early 1986), Yamaha launched the Yamaha SPX-90II. The two processors are identical in terms of specifications and effects offered, the only difference is that the Yamaha SPX-90II has twice as much memory for delays. The Yamaha SPX-90II is a blend of advanced acoustic research and digital technology designed to offer musicians and home recording enthusiasts a wide range of exciting effects. The Yamaha SPX-90II digital multi-effects processor uses highly refined Large Scale-Integration (LSI) technology to create natural reverberation. Not only is its assortment of 30 presets complete enough to suit most studio and performance applications, the SPX90II also allows you to create up to 60 additional effects and store them for instant recall. The SPX90II can create effects that go beyond simple reverb, although the quality of the reverb itself is truly superior. A variety of echo, delay and special effects - each with full parameter settings - are accessible at the touch of a button. And because the SPX90II is MIDI compatible, it can be programmed to apply separate reverb effects to a variety of MIDI-compatible instruments. The Yamaha SPX90II digital multi-effects processor is extremely useful in a wide variety of applications: acoustic, electric, PA, MIDI instruments, and home recording systems.

Based on S-DISC (TM) processing technology, the true stereo effects processor uses a 44.1 kHz sample rate and 18-bit conversion to provide a myriad of tools including stereo reverbs, multi-tap delays, choruses, flashes, tremolos, detuning, and parametric equalizers. With 99 factory programs included, up to 99 user-defined program combinations can be easily edited and recorded via the Studio Twin's simple user interface. The processor also responds to MIDI, so programs can be changed on the fly via a simple user interface.

The K-Station is a whole new take on the original Bass Station Keyboard that put British synth makers Novation on the analog synth map! Essentially, the K-Station is an extremely well laid-out and superbly designed 2-octave keyboard version of their new A-Station rack module. It features 8 voices of analog modeled sounds with FM, 12-band vocoder, arpeggiator, reverb and delay effects, 400 user rewritable program memories, and more. Unlike the crowded interface and puny LCD display screen found on the A-Station, the K-Station has a beautiful layout with easy access to its knobs, sliders and buttons. And finally there's a large LCD display!
