News Troots-Effects FT1 Dub Filter

Created in 2008 by Tooney Roots, the little french company offers gear for Dub and Reggae producers as well as for DJs.

Mathieu Georges, aka Tooney Roots, is a french technician, sound engineer, musician and producer. He debuted with the recreation of famous sound generators from the 1970s: Sirens, Synare clones, synth drums… 

As a Dub fan, he pays homage to King Tubby’s with his FT1 Dub Analog Filter, a multimode VCF with LFO and switch that recreates the passive “step” filter effects also used by the Jamaican sound engineer “Scientist”.

All Troots products are hand-made in the south of France in very small quantities and part of the work is outsourced to Marc Bareille, another famous electronics engineer (Analog Lab).

All the effets have a two-year warranty.

 

Products currently available are:

  • SD1 Discrete Dub Siren : solid-state sound generator (LFO + VCO) for sirens, bips, tones… 150€
  • TR7 Syndrum: op amp synth drum based on the Coron DS7 cloned by Marc Bareille. 230€
  • FT1 Dub Filter: discrete analogue VCF with LP/BP/HP/Phazing + LFO & Step Cut (similar to a cutoff knob but with an 8-way switch, all voltage controlled). 370€
  • AD1 Echo: emulates tape echos and Bucket Bridade Delays, Lo-Fi echo with LPF over feedback + LFO to emulate wow, tremolo, chorus… 250€
