PAR Excellence at AES for DACS' Eightch

DACS' latest product, debuted at the AES Convention in San Francisco, was chosen by Pro Audio Review as one of the ‘hottest new products' at the show. This operationally simple 8 channel volume control, fills the space between crude passive units and sophisticated surround sound controllers. Fraser Jones, President of DACS' US distributor Independent Audio, said “The combination of the highest performance and operational simplicity makes the Eightch very versatile – I can see it being used in music studios, post production environments, in listening rooms and even in domestic situations.”

Pearl microphones join DACS line up, and Cycling '74 release MODE plugins

We've finally found the time to update our news section, and in good time too.  Pearl microphones are the latest addition to our distribution lines, the Swedish manufactured "any application" mics range from inexpensive dynamics to M & S stereo condensers, and are soon be reviewed in the UK press.  Watch this space......

Cycling '74, the award winning software developers, have released a new set of plugins -  MODE.  A combination of classic synthesis and effects techniques, with state of the art control and sleek graphic interface, Cycling '74 joined forces with the Creative Synth team to create a set of plugins that break new ground, and not your bank!

DACS distribute Ursa Major SST-206 reverb, Cycling '74 release Jitter for Win XP, and Ms.Pinky's I.W.S. hits UK.

Sounds Expo provoked a brilliant response to our new products and distribution lines, giving the UK it's first glimpse of the Ursa Major SST-206 Space Station reverb.  Brought out in 1978, it's been re-launched sporting a new 24 Bit "room" reverb and AES/EBU connections, whilst still maintaining it's original "garage-grunge" reverb and echo settings.

Ms.Pinky's I.W.S. set, an affordable vinyl control for .wav, .mp3 and .aif files, is now available from DACS.  The timecoded vinyl and software works as a way of playing your digital audio files using normal analogue turntables, as well as acting as a control for Max/MSP.  And talking of Cycling '74, Jitter for Windows XP has been released and is now shipping.  Contact us for more details.
