Tascam RS-30 Recording Simulator boxed

80s digital reverb/exciter. Big sound in a small box, plus interesting digital distortion possibilities.

Video below.

Sounds as you might expect: like a cheap recreation of one setting on an AMS. You may or may not regard this as a good thing; we do! It's pretty big and boomy, and at higher settings we use it as another method for mangling sounds (we've got other boxes to use if we actually want subtle/realistic reverb). And the functionality (mono/stereo, wet/dry etc) is good - see the spec below.

Predictably we've also abused it by overloading the inputs, and you can get some great low-fi digital distortion out of it with some signals.
