Tantek Tanrak - "Tantek Tanrak review by Ian Waugh, published in EMM aug. 1986"

Klark Teknik DN 504 - "A great – though aging - quad comp"
I’ve personnally mostly used this Quad Compressor live. It was old and looked used and battered, but it still worked wonder. It’s a really sturdy and reliable model! Up to par with the manufacturer’…
Urei / Jbl LA-4 - "Simple, yet efficient"
I've owned the Silverface and Blackface versions. Their sounds slightly differ: the Silver favors high mids, while the black is richer in the low mids, but it's really, really subtle! What's nice …
Boss VF-1 - "A swiss army knife updated from Boss earlier half rack Multi-FX"
For which specific applications or uses have you chosen this product? Mainly bass guitar really, second electric guitar, and studio mainstay effects processor. In what context do you currently u…
Boss SE-70 Super Effects Processor - "Very Good Swiss Army Knife of effects, still in 2016"
For which specific applications or uses have you chosen this product? All studio effects, live PA, reverb, limiting, and mostly synths, guitar fx, and bass. In what context do you currently use …
Roland SVC-350 Vocoder - "The OG Robo Voice"
There's a ton of Vocoders out there, but this one is the classic 80's Bboy version! It just cuts right through the music like no other and is also the one used to make the classic "aah, this stuff is…
Micmix Master Room XL-210 - "2 Channel spring reverb"
I use this in a studio setting. Has input level control, three band EQ controls and a Mix (Wet/Dry) control plus a very nice I/O. Great on vocals, acoustic guitar... very adjustable... works on almo…
Zoom 1201 - "Idiot proof FX utility"
Certainly not high-end, and lacking in deep editing capability or anything much in the way of multi-FX, the unassuming 1201 still became something of a minor cult item amongst late-1990s home studio …
DigiTech Vocalist Live 3 - "L'arme fatale du chanteur"
Je ne reviendrais pas sur les spéifications que l'on trouve partout! Je l'utilise pour ma voix deux fonctions principalement: * L'Egalisation, et le compresseur en permanence pour 'arrondir la …
Oberheim GM-1000 - "GREAT EFFECTS HAS UNIQUE PITCHSHIFTERS"
This is one of the best effects units i have in my collection it has 500 sound patches 250 can be edited and shaped to your liking what i find interesting about this unit is the unique pitchshifters …
Lexicon PCM 70 - "Best Ever"
The sound quality is the best reverb on the market even by todays standards. I have used a strymon big sky and multiple reverb pedals, and reverb racks ( FX500 yamaha, ALESIS MIDIVERB 2, ALESIS Quadr…
Alesis QuadraVerb - "amazing rack for the money"
This rack is wonderful, I would recommend always using an FX loop with this, or a Main In. I run this quadraverb PLUS with my strymon timeline into the fx loop of my AXE FX 2, it sounds amazing. thro…
Warm Audio WA76 Limiting Amplifier - "Warm Audio gives me the warm fuzzies"
I have been using less expensive equipment in my project studio for years now and my recordings have sounded... thin to say the least. I recently found out about Warm Audio WA-76 from my music stor…
Waves L2 UltraMaximizer - "Very good product"
This ‘ultramaximizer’ (essentially a look-ahead stereo mastering limiter) is the only digital unit to make the cut. Compression is one of those areas where DSP-based units have traditionally been not…
Evans (Sound Creator) ES-5 - "Great!"
I use the Evans as my main echo in the studio and live for "roots" Dub. In addition to looking good, it's sturdy. Speed is stabe, less unpredictible than a RE201 as far as the wow and compatible tape…
