BSS TCS-804 Dual Channel Digital Delay

 

 

The TCS-804 is a 2-channel dual-tap or single-channel quad-tap digital delay line designed for critical speaker systems displacement and "Delay Towers" distance correction in large arenas. It can also be used as a sonically transparent, stereo time corrector for disc mastering, transfer or satellite broadcast applications.

 

The unit features:

• A 1O5dB usable dynamic range

• Time and distance displays in feet, meters, inches, and milliseconds

• Minimum delay steps of 10 microseconds

• Maximum of 650mS (stereo) or 1.3S (mono), expandable to 1.3S/2.6S

• A 100kHz sampling rate

• 12 non-volatile user programmable memories (no batteries required)

• Master/slaving via MIDI; an electronics security lockout

• Automatic delay-time temperature compensation via an optional probe
