Kilpatrick Audio has announced that their REDOX hardware reverb effect is coming in November 2018.
At the 2018 NAMM Show, we talked with creator Andrew Kilpatrick, who gave us a preview of REDOX & their Torgue compressor. Being a prototype unit demo’d at NAMM, though, it was hard to get much of an idea of what this will sound like:
They say that REDOX is ‘designed from the ground up to be a companion for electronic musicians and producers looking for a universal reverb solution for both studio and stage’.
Features (preliminary):
- Stereo algorithmic reverb with high dynamic range processing
- Many reverb algorithms to choose fron, including:
- Kilpatrick Audio’s signature Lush Puppy algorithms great for fast synths, drums and guitar
- Classic old-school reverbs perfect for old-school synth sounds
- Multi-tap delay effects with a selectable number of taps
- Smooth hall and room types perfect for vocals and instruments
- Super long and smooth reverbs perfect for creating ambient textures
- MOD effects work along with reverbs to create other kinds of effects
- Adjustable predelay on all reverbs up to 200ms
- Pristine analog audio front-end with 24 bit converters and >100dB dynamic range (ADC to DAC)
- High dynamic-range floating point signal processing prevents internal clipping
- Low-latency signal processing of less than 1ms
- High-quality LCD screen shows settings and metering
- Quick-access parameter controls for MOD control, reverb filter and size
- Dedicated MOD controls allow the MOD effect to be controlled in real-time
- 1/4″ line audio jacks using Neutrik connectors
- MIDI control of all functions via USB or DIN MIDI
- Internal memory for storage of up to 99 presets plus live settings
- 5V USB powered – great for portable use
- Integrated VESA mounting holes permits secure mounting
- Dimensions, weight and more details coming soon
Audio demos are still to come.
Pricing and Availability
The REDOX is expected to be available in November 2018, priced around US $489.
Kilpatrick Audio stuff is always really well made and thought out, but I cant really think of an effect or sound source that is more impossible to judge without sound demos as reverb. Seems priced & specced close to the OTO BAM effects, so will need to be up there in terms of quality.
Agree with you. Andrew doesn’t do a project unless he’s planning to do it extremely well. His stuff is always very smart. Will be curious to see how this fares.
sup wit dat torque doe?
