Announcing the Model TS-22 Pentode Filterbank by Metasonix
 October 22, 2000The TS-22 is another unique and distinctive
all-tube electronic music product from Metasonix.
It consists of four bandpass filters, wired in parallel
and driven by a special optocircuit, so that they
will sweep simultaneously.
The filters sweep a one-octave range, and are offset
from each other by one octave, starting at A=55 Hz. Unlike any filter on the current market, each filter
in the TS-22 has its individual tune knob - each calibrated
in equally-tempered intervals, from A to A. Each filter also has its individual RESONANCE control,
to allow disabling each filter or cranking it
up to oscillation. And the final output tube is usable as a VCA, optionally.
By using the TS-22 with the TS-21 and (soon to come)
TS-23, it's possible to build a complete synthesizer
voice, of great complexity and all-tube construction.
Insuring a totally different sound from what you've
experienced before.
Applications:
- Perfect for subtle effects or for gross mangling of any signal: guitar,
synth, vocals, etc.
-
sound design in a recording setting
-
studio effects
-
big, big sound!
Size: 19" EIA rackmount cabinet, 2U height.
Oonly readily-available tubes in Metasonix products.
The TS-21 is hand-made and hand-wired, point to
point style, in the USA.
