Sintefex FX8000 Replicator

The Holly Grail of recording, mixing, and mastering professional audio. Sintefex FX8000 replicates any analog audio device into a digital replica, from the response of a certain loudspeaker to tape delays or spring reverb. Even the sound print of a cassette recorder or vinyl plate. A universe of audio effects, EQ, compressors, delays, reverb and many more!

It is in top condition and handled with the utmost respect and care.

Winner of the Studio Sound SSAIRA Award for Best Combined Outboard Device, 2001.

The SINTEFEX FX8000 REPLICATOR is a unique product which can capture an analogue signal path and reproduce it digitally, accurately simulating the frequency response and distortion characteristics of the original. For the first time you can

· Choose from a large library of sampled analogue EQ’s, compressors and sampled signal paths to add an analogue sound without leaving the digital domain.

· Capture a favourite signal path forever for reuse at any future time

· Capture a mono process and apply it identically across multiple channels, e.g. a 5.1 surround mix · Store favourite compressors for instant recall with a wider range of control that the original

· Get your favourite compressor sound accurately linked in stereo or surround mixes

· Work wholly digitally and get that indefinable analogue sound

· You can even switch off the non-linearity if you like the analogue sound but need it digitally clean. Replicator goes beyond the well know process of linear convolution (at least it is well known to DSP experts even if they never let you get at it before!).

Replicator’s unique and patented non-linear technology takes it beyond this to reproduce the analogue characteristic of the sound changing when you drive the unit harder.
