I've been waiting for this device since god knows when!
I'm talking about an analog device that will recreate the ensemble effekt of old stringer machines like the Rhapsody or Solina... or more precisely: The Eminent Unique 310 that Jarre used A LOT on his Oxygene and Equinoxe albums... that lush phased strings.
I've had the phaser (Electro Harmonix Smallstone Phaser) for quite some time now, and this phaser is alfa omega, but it cannot do the whole job of those strings by itself, and the whole secret is the combination of the stringer ensemble effect put through the Smallstone Phaser (slightly modified version of the phaser though).
Even analog chorus or ensemble effect pedals wont do it correctly, as the stringer ensemble effect is rather complicated and complex, so unless you had one of those rare Eminents or Solina's, it's just not really obtainable.
Untill now I guess...
A fully analog Ensemble effects unit, that recreate the Stringer Ensemble effect, and is even made from the Solina (eminent) curcuit and components, and has even more adjustable parameters!
This thing is just incredible! ... Italian made, and I've been put on the ordering list now... can't wait!!!
