Because AD/DA converters were such an expensive component at the time, it was decided to use the converters in the delays that already where in many studio's. DMX15R Digital Reverb (1981)ĪMS's first reverb was an expansion of the DMX 15-80. The DMX later included pitch changing and up to 32 seconds of delay. THe DMX 15-80 is a stereo version of the machine and later the DMX included "loop triggering" launching the use of digital sampling.
One of the early users of the AMS DMX 15-80 was Manchester record producer Martin Hannett. In 1978, AMS introduced the world's first microprocessor controlled, 15-bit digital delay line, the AMS DMX 15-80. This was used by ELO, 10cc and Paul McCartney, who used it on the Wings' London Town album in 1978. Their first product was the DM-20 Tape Phase Simulator.
#DYNACORD EMINENT II MANUAL PROFESSIONAL#
They were originally Aerospace engineers before getting into professional studio equipment for the manipulation and control of sound. Early years.ĪMS was founded by Mark Crabtree and Stuart Nevison in 1976. The company later merged with Neve Electronics to form AMS Neve. There's also a direct preamp, line output that bypasses the power amp stage.Were a manufacturer of professional studio equipment. The onboard 55 watt power amplifier is driven by 2 x E元4 tubes and matches 4, 8 or 16 ohm speakers. Again, with volume, treble & bass controls.ġ more independent input channel for line level signals. Each input features a transformer manufactured by Beyerdynamic and supports microphones with impedance ranging from 150 to 500 ohm.Ģ additional input channels suitable for direct signals from electric guitar and/or electric bass guitar. It incorporates 2 independent, balanced Microphone input channels with volume, treble & bass controls. It came out of the Dynacord factory in late 1961 in order to serve as an all purpose mixing unit. German built quality from start to finish in this masterpiece of sound engineering! EMINENT is a VERY versatile piece of equipment, suitable for professional use by musicians and recording studios alike. Model EMINENT was first introduced in 1962 and was the flagship mixing amplifier of Dynacord during the 1962-1966 period. Their models rivaled the best from England's Vox, Selmer and Marshall and USA's Fender, Gibson and Ampeg.īoth in building & sound quality. "Vintage, Made in West Germany early 1960's.ĭynacord produced during the sixties in West Germany, top-of-the-line professional equipment for musicians.

You can get a nice fat distortion when turning up the pre-amp gain and the master down. Sounds very clear and crisp, would be great for keys, acoustic guitar as will as many other amplified instruments. there is a master volume as well as master bass and treble controls.
