KAB SOUVENIR VSP MK 2

VINTAGE SIGNAL PROCESSOR

KAB SOUVENIR VSP MK2 VINTAGE SIGNAL PROCESSOR
    Completely redesigned for 2001, the Souvenir VSP MK2 is a powerful yet easy to use sound restoration unit. The VSP's effective noise reduction circuitry makes your worst records sound good again. A wide array of controls let you get the very best from any vintage recording regardless of groove type or equalization. A great replacement for that tired Owl-1 and Owl Multifilter.

    Connections are gold plated and plentiful, Phono in and Bypass out, optional RCA Line In, RCA Aux Bypass, RCA Out and TRS Quasi Balanced Out(Passive)

    Your recordings will sound more vibrant, forceful, much cleaner and quieter. Best of all, it is all analog and truly real time. You use it as you would any peice of hi fi gear. No computer required.

    Connects between your turntable and AUX input. With the optional Line In you can even process older tapes made on standard Hi Fi Sets.

Stereo in, Mono out. Recommended 78 Rpm Phono cartridge: KS 500-27.
Dimensions are 16.73 x 5.5 x 1.72". Optional Rack Ends are available from Lansing Co.

    The really great features to take note of with the VSP MK2 are, I beleive, the high performance and flexibility. There simply are no fully integrated processors with this kind of flexibility. Read the features list carefully. The MK2 has a lot of capability.

    One of the biggest let downs with processing gear is that it is rarely optimized for vintage sound sources. The VSP MK2 is designed from the ground up to be a Vintage Signal Processor.

    Front panel controls are laid out in basic operational order. The Mono Mix control lets you balance the two sides of the groovewall and find the best "mix".

    The Optional Line In feature lets you use the VSP in a tape loop and also lets you re-process tapes or discs that were made with a modern stereo only. Selecting inverse RIAA undoes the modern stereo's RIAA EQ and lets you start fresh with a "Flat" input; Almost as if you had the original recordings again.

A great replacement for that tired Owl-1 and Owl Multifilter; benchmarks in their time but now long out of date.
