Eventide Orville is loaded with features that put it in a class by itself. It has four analogue inputs, four analogue outputs, four digital inputs, and four digital outputs that can all be used simultaneously. Routing among them is completely flexible (“anything to anything”)!
What’s more, Orville houses two independent signal processors, each having four inputs and four outputs (imaginatively dubbed “DSP A” and “DSP B”). The two processors can be run in parallel, in series, or in any mutant variation thereof.
The variety and depth of the programs that run on the DSPs are truly amazing, from lush reverbs, to choruses, to flanges, to delays, to pitch shifters, to dynamics, to EQs, to filters, to distortions, to synthesisers, to samplers, to ring modulators, and everything in-between.
Most frequency and time-dependent parameters (e.g. delays, LFO’s) synchronise to a system tempo for ease of use. And if that’s not enough, DSP A boasts nearly three minutes of sample time in addition to the 40 seconds of delay time found on both DSP A and DSP B!
And for the user who is interested in making his or her own programs (if the huge number of factory programs aren’t enough!), Orville continues the “modular programming paradigm” that made the DSP4000 famous.
Programs are composed of individual building blocks, or “modules,” that allow the user to create original programs. Inspiration and creativity are given no bounds.
