Analogoutfittersnammpresskit.Pdf II. OUR STORY Analog Outfitters is a rapidly growing boutique amplifier company that builds world-class guitar amplifiers, speaker cabinets, and related products. Our manufacturing process is truly unique in that the vast major- ity of our raw materials come from unwanted or otherwise obsolete organs made by such manufacturers as Baldwin, Hammond, and Wurlitzer. These companies manufactured their organs with the best mate- rials available. As a result, all of our speaker cabinets are made from up-cycled wood from species such as mahogany, redwood, walnut, and maple. Additionally, our amplifiers benefit from the use of vintage output transformers that impart a classic tone unrivaled by companies who are forced to use modern output transformers. Analog Outfitters officially began in 2002 in a basement workshop in Champaign, IL. Ben Juday had spent the three previous years at the University of Illinois pursuing a graduate degree in Geography with the ultimate goal of being a college professor. In 2000, Ben had the great fortune of meeting physics pro- fessor Steve Errede who was teaching a class entitled “Physics of Electronic Musical Instruments”. Ben asked Professor Errede if he could sit in on the course, and they became fast friends and Errede became an unofficial mentor to Ben. 15 years later, this collaborative relationship continues with Errede playing an integral design role in almost all of Analog Outfitters products. From 2002 thru 2011, Analog Outfitters specialized in repairs and live sound. These 9 years were for- mative in giving the team at Analog Outfitters a thorough understanding of the technical side of the music business. After repairing thousands of pieces of equipment, the team learned what designs stood up to the rigors of the road, and what designs failed after 6 months. In 2011, Ben Juday decided to build a custom amplifier for fun with no intentions of starting an amplifier business. He had hundreds of old Hammond organ amplifiers lying around the shop, as well as some old signs and some empty scientific equipment cases. After much trial and error, the first Sarge amplifier was born. The rest, as they say, is history. ORGANIC 15 SPECS: Constructed from high quality woods such as redwood (2) EL-84 OUTPUT TUBES and mahogany, the ORGANIC 15 is the perfect amplifier for those seeking a powerful and versatile amp (2)12AX7 PREAMPLIFIER TUBES that comes with personality. Up-cycled from original (1) 5U4GB RECTIFIER TUBE Hammond models, the ORGANIC 15 is a piece 4 OHMS OUTPUT IMPEDANCE of music history and an excellent addition to any 15 WATT CLASS A POWER musician’s arsenal. The ORGANIC 15 gives all of the powerful performance of the Sarge inside of a beautifully VINTAGE POWER AND OUTPUT TRANSFORMERS crafted hardwood cabinet. CATHODYNE PHASE INVERTER THE SARGE SPECS: Enclosed in a unique enclosure constructed from recycled (2) EL84 POWER TUBES steel, the Sarge is built tough and highly portable for any occasion. Each enclosure is slightly different due to parts (2) 12AX7 PREAMPLIFIER TUBES sourcing, and features a unique case that is able to withstand (1) 5Y3 RECTIFIER TUBE any potential damage. Small enough to fit on any cabinet, 8 OHMS OUTPUT IMPEDANCE the amplifier is powered by two EL84s in the power section, 15 WATT CLASS A POWER two 12AX7s in a preamp setting and a 5Y3 rectifier. This allows the Sarge to provide a gritty and authoritative VINTAGE POWER AND OUTPUT TRANSFORMERS tone that is able to make itself heard regardless of the composition of the sound. THE SUPER SARGE SPECS: The Super Sarge is a more powerful version of our Sarge (4) EL84 POWER TUBES model, with four EL84 power tubes. This model resulted from a collaborative effort between Analog Outfitters and (2) 12AX7 PREAMP TUBES Nels Cline of Wilco. Nels wanted an amplifier with the tone of (1) 5U4 RECTIFIER the Sarge but with more clean headroom for live applications; 4 OR 8 OHMS OUTPUT IMPEDANCE the resulting amplifier is equally at home in the studio or on 35 WATT CLASS A POWER stage. VINTAGE OUTPUT TRANSFORMER ROAD AMP SPECS: The Road Amp is specifically designed to be tough, (2) 6V6 OUTPUT TUBES and its outer shell is constructed from decommissioned road signs; having proven themselves for decades on (1) 12AX7 PREAMPLIFIER TUBE the side of America’s streets, these signs are now ready (1) 12AU7 PHASE INVERTER TUBE to be reborn as the unique case for our new line (1) 5U4GB RECTIFIER TUBE of tone machines. Like our other amplifiers, the Road 8 OHMS OUTPUT IMPEDANCE Amp is built from vintage Hammond organ amplifiers repurposed to create the sparkling tone that only vintage 20 WATT CLASS A POWER transformers can produce. VINTAGE POWER AND OUTPUT TRANSFORMERS CASE MADE FROM DECOMMISSIONED ROAD SIGN COMBO AMP SPECS: By popular demand this beautiful AO Combo Amplifier (4) EL84 POWER TUBES was born.

The Scanner features an amazing vibrato and reverb The top of The Scanner is made from a high-quality, clear, sound. We made it out of repurposed vintage vibrato ¼” acrylic material.

With features such as MIDI and USB drawbars, these instruments provide the original organ connectivity, MIDI merge, ¼” jack for Leslie speed experience with none of the logistical drawbacks.

Martínez Ramírez, Emmanouil Benetos, Joshua D. Reiss Centre for Digital Music, Queen Mary University of London London, United Kingdom m.a.martinezramirez, emmanouil.benetos, [email protected] ABSTRACT center frequency is modulated by an LFO or an envelope follower, the effect is commonly called auto-wah. Audio processors whose parameters are modified periodically Delay-line based audio effects, as in the case of flanger and over time are often referred as time-varying or modulation based chorus, are based on the modulation of the length of the delay audio effects. Most existing methods for modeling these type of lines. A flanger is implemented via a modulated comb filter whose effect units are often optimized to a very specific circuit and cannot output is mixed with the input audio. Unlike the phaser, the notch be efficiently generalized to other time-varying effects. Based on and peak frequencies caused by the flanger’s sweep comb filter convolutional and recurrent neural networks, we propose a deep effect are equally spaced in the spectrum, thus causing the known learning architecture for generic black-box modeling of audio pro- metallic sound associated with this effect. A chorus occurs when cessors with long-term memory.

  • The LESLIE Speaker Model 950 Is a Single Channel Unit with Four Heavy Duty, Extended Range, 12" Loudspeakers
    OWNER'S MANUAL INTRODUCTION Electro Music/CBS Musical Instruments. A Division of Columbia Broadcasting System, Inc. Leslie is a Registered Trademark of CBS, Inc. I Printed In U.S.A. Document 100620, 20 July 1971 The LESLIE Speaker Model 950 is a single channel unit with four heavy duty, extended range, 12" loudspeakers. It is rated at 200 watts RMS output. The 950 may be connected to many console type organs with the same LESLIE console connector kits used for models 900 and 925. Combo organs and other instruments must be connected by means of the Deluxe Combo Preamp. (Specify the 7420 Connector Kit when ordering.) Model 950 can also be used in conjunction with LESLIE models 900 or 925 by means of an existing Deluxe Combo Preamp, or by connecting the 950 to the model 900 or 925 with power relay No.02l709 for l17V installations; No. 047738 for 234V/250V installations.) With a total output of 200 watts RMS, the 950 has ample power for matching the output of other combo amps on stage. But its uniqueness lies in its three-way light show, which is described below. When setting up the speaker, consider the audience. The acoustical reflectors on either side of the model 950 rotors are designed to direct all sound straight ahead. Furthermore, turning the 950 to either side will partially obscure the audience~ view of the rotors. Volume control adjustment is also important, and for three reasons: A. To prevent speaker distortion which could result in speaker damage, B. To provide adequate volume for flashing the ultraviolet lamps, hereafter referred to as blacklights C.
