Got it from a friend’s studio and use it in every mix, mainly as my main snare reverb. Have used it as a (vocal) hall reverb as well. Overall a very very affordable effect unit with great sound! Can’t recommend it enough.

This unity was my “secret” of a spectacular strings recording during many years and made me a engineer to go when a strings or a entire orchestra should be nice recorded. In that time (90s 2000s) I worked in a excellent big studio in São Paulo, Brasil, but the room was quite poor for a big ensemble. So I fed the signal from the ambient microphones to the unity using the first program you find when turn It on, the “reference” reverb.

This program come in 4.1s of release, so I always corrected it to 3.1 then I blended the return to the channels from mic ambience, just enough to create a rich room I had not in reality and recorded all the thing together, this way no one realized my secret to achieve that fantastic sound. Was stunning, that fucking unity fix better with strings than unitys far more expensive as L480 or TC3000/6000! I still with my own here but the strings recording was drop down to less than one in a year…

Also If someone need a rotor speaker there is in my opinion no one unity better than Dynacord DRP 15!
