DISC TC Electronic D-Two Rack FX Processor

Full Description

High Quality Delays & Effects

The TC Electronic D-Two Rack FX Processor combines modern day technology with cutting edge innovation, delivering one of the most versatile reverb/delay FX processors on the market. The C Electronic D-Two features a comprehensive collection of delay types and effects including: Filter, Spatial, Reverse Delay, Dynamic Delay, Chorus and Ping-Pong. The wide array of reverbs and effect types allow you to get the most out of both instrument and vocal recordings. The Spatial delay is ideal for adding a sense of width to your sound. The Filter can be added to your delay for a softer and more natural sounding delay. The Reverse Delay is highly unique at processing the signal and adding a backwards delay. Dynamic and Ping-Pong delays are also included for traditional sounding effects. All of these effects are processed using the integrated 24-bit AD/DA converter for extreme sound reproduction that captures your audio in immense detail.

Three Conifguration Modes

The D-Two Multitap Rhythm Delay boasts three operational modes that range from traditional configurations to useful modes for varied applications. The 'Traditional' mode is configured like a traditional reverb/delay unit. The 'Straight' mode gives you the ability to control the number of repeats for your delay. The 'Rhythm' mode allows you to input the tempo using the tap tempo function for quick and easy tempo configuration.

In-Depth Control

In addition to the three configuration modes, the TC Electronic D-Two features a wide range of parameters for optimal control. One of the most unique features on the D-Two FX Processor is the Absolute repeat control which allows you to control every aspect of your repeats, giving you the ability to sculpt and mould your effects with extreme precision. The front panel features a Rhythm Tap button that allows you to tap the tempo/rhythm you need directly into the unit, and set the tempo for the delays. It features 50 factory presets in total and 100 user locations for saving your own presets and settings.

Design & Connectivity

The compact yet robust design of the TC Electronics D-Two is perfectly suited for studio environments. The rack-mountable design only takes up a single unit (1U) of space in a standard studio rack, ideal for the space-conscious user. The front-panel of the unit features all major functions and controls including the Delay Line and D-Two Delay Line sections for optimal control over your effects. The bright and streamlined display, provides information on everything from input metering to delay times, preset numbers and more. The D-Two FX Processor also features a wide range of connectivity including dual 1/4-inch I/O and MIDI connectivity. Also included is a digital S/PDIF I/O running at 44.1-48kHz for optimal audio performance.
