TC1210-DT - Spatial Expander

TC1210-DT is an exceptional stereo expander and modulation unit that brings the performance of the famed TC 1210 magic to your studio. With its innovative fusion of hardware and software, it captures the amazing sound and versatility of the iconic rack unit, and gives you unique tactile controls that will fuel your creativity and spice up your workflow. With TC1210-DT in your sonic arsenal, your stereo image will never be the same. Powered by an ever-present Haas effect, TC1210-DT conjures up beautiful and dynamic modulation, static widening and psychoacoustic enhancements that will breathe life and thickness into your tracks. In essence: it makes everything sound great!

Praised for its organic and silky effects, as well as its ability to enhance the other effects in your signal chain, TC1210-DT takes modulation to the next level. With two separate and independent chorus-flanger engines, it infuses exceptional warmth and identity into your music, allowing you to easily sculpt the ideal sonic texture and intensity – for subtle tweaks or thick and chewy modulation. Now you can add the sound of this legendary rack processor to your DAW. The sleek desktop control unit puts all key parameters right at your fingertips, allowing you to explore and experiment to your heart’s content. With TC1210-DT’s intuitive hands-on interface, you get total creative control of your sound design.

TC1210-DT perfectly recreates the coveted sound of the TC 1210 Spatial Expander + Stereo Chorus Flanger, which has found its way into the hands of great artists such as Eric Clapton, Aphex Twin and Alex Lifeson. Based on the original schematics and careful measurements, TC1210-DT captures all the details, including the beautiful inaccuracies of the analog circuitry that made the original a thing of legendary status. Since all the processing is handled by your DAW, you can load as many instances as needed for your mix. When connected directly to your USB port, TC1210-DT’s desktop controller provides ultra-intuitive control over even the most minute nuance of your effect. This creates the perfect synergy between software and hardware, and makes TC1210-DT the ideal addition to any modern studio environment.

Ranging from subtle enhancements to dramatic stereo expansions, TC1210-DT is extremely versatile. Designed to sit perfectly in any mix, it applies its Midas touch to everything from string ensembles to lead vocals, roaring drum synths and expressive guitar tracks. And with its full mix down compatibility, your music will always sound great – even when played back on mono devices, such as mobile phones and DAB radios. TC1210-DT’s Signature Presets will fuel your inspiration and add instant character to your mixing or recording session. Custom-built by some of the greatest producers and engineers around, these are record-ready settings that will push the sound and character of the TC1210-DT to its full potential. And best of all? They’re on the house. You’re welcome!

Besides input and output meters for signal monitoring directly on the hardware interface, TC1210-DT provides an innovative “Sigma LFO meter”, which reflects your modulation and helps you intuitively adjust the effect. The hands-on controls let you tune all tone-defining parameters, including the complexity of the stereo pattern, the combination of modulation effects and much more. TC1210-DT is an awesome addition to any console, mixing desk or bedroom recording station – and supports all modern plug-in standards. This lets you make full use of DAW automation and project recall, and gives you the freedom to work with any audio software you prefer.
