The
RV7000 is a stereo effect unit
dedicated to highquality reverberation. This device is
set on embedding your sounds in the kind of rich, transparent
sounding reverb that only the most sophisticated reverb
machines are capable of. In short, it sounds amazing.
And despite its pro studio sound and million-dollar features,
this machine is very easy to use. Your basic reverb controls
are located on the main panel - for instant access and
control - and the rest, eight separate knobs for algorithms
and their parameters, can be accessed from a fold-out
remote at the touch of a button. |

No
studio setup is complete without a proper vocoder, so
here it is: the BV-512, superior sound quality, multitalented
and advanced - yet simple to use. Besides being a 4 to
512-band vocoder capable of modulating sound in both old-school
analog style and digital FFT fashion, this unit also doubles
as a fully automated equalizer with a twist. The BV-512
can be used for everything from classic robot vocals to
weird harmonic effects. |

Scream
4 features ten different damage methods or distortion
types, each with its own evil character: Overdrive, Distortion,
Fuzz, Tube, Tape, Feedback, Modulate, Warp, Digital and
Scream. |

UN-16 Unison An eighties button transformed
into a handy rack device. This is UN-16 Unison, the fattifier.
Unison is exactly what the name suggests; a software reincarnation
of that mysterious "Unison" button on those early eighties
synths. Transformed into a Reason rack unit. UN-16 Unison
fattens up incoming sound by emulating the effect of 4,
8 or 16 detuned versions of the incoming sound playing
the same note. In ultra-stereo. The result is rich and
wide and slightly similar to a chorus effect, only much
fancier. |

No
knobs, no buttons and no display. Spider Audio may not
be much to look at, but if you're a seasoned Reason producer,
it might be just the thing you've been searching for.
The Spider Audio utlity has two purposes in life: to merge
and to split audio. All this splitting and merging brings
more of the hardware studio's patching capabilities into
the software realm. Try merging multiple audio signals
and process them with the same insert effect, as in sending
three of Redrum's toms to the same compressor. Or try
splitting an instrument's output into four, and send them
to four different effect processors. |

Like
brother Audio, Spider CV lacks all the visual trademarks
of an effect device, because just like Spider Audio, it
isn't one. Spider CV is exactly the same kind of utlity
as Spider Audio, but here the splitting and merging is
performed on CV and gate signals. Which lets you get very
scientifical about your music: split the CV signals from
the Matrix Pattern Sequencer to trigger several synths
with the same pattern. Or merge the outputs of several
LFO's to create some very complex modulation patterns. |
