The World’s FIRST Digital Reverb: EMT 250 Part 1 Demo with a Sequential Circuits Prophet-5


video upload by foleytronics fx repair

"This is a 1976 EMT 250 digital reverb, one of not very many ever made. It came to the shop screaming white noise in my ear as soon as you turn it on, which ended up being a RAM issue. 12 bit (quasi 15 bit according to the manual as it converts the signal to floating point while it processes the signal, though I think they meant 16 bit as the RAM array is 8k x 16), 24 khz sample rate, probably around a 10 kHz roll off.

Part I discusses how to use it and you can hear some sound demos, part II will explore the circuitry of the unit a little more.
