Reloop IQ2+ and IQ2+ USB

Geschreven door Reind Dooyeweerd woensdag, 12 maart 2008 13:15

Nog meer Reloop nieuws, namelijk de nieuwe IQ2+ mixers. Het gaat hier om 2 kanaals mixers met een ingebouwde effect unit welke voorzien is van een dry/wet fader (zoals het hoort ;-) ). De mixer is zowel met als zonder USB in/uitgang te verkrijgen en is voor zover nu bekend alleen leverbaar in het zwart (zelfde idee als de blackfire reeks). Of er nog een 3 en 4 kanaals variant van deze mixer komt, wat hij gaat kosten en wanneer het apparaat leverbaar is ga ik morgen eens naar informeren.

Reloop IQ2+ and IQ2+ USB
The Reloop IQ.2+ is the foundation of Reloop's new generation of remix mixers. With the Reloop IQ.+ series Reloop establishes an integral mixer concept that fuses creativity, handling, and design resulting in a new mixer standard: intelligent quality. The IQ.2+ proves its qualities as remixer due to its extensive DSP effect unit that even exhibits a manual filter with a stageless low pass/high pass modulation. The effects feature a OneTouch pulsing. The three crossfader effects, Filter X, Delay X, and Pitch X, which manually and automatically improve the channel cross-fade are innovative and intuitive. The result: a real fusion of both tracks in the mix. The large display guarantees a perfect overview of all effects and beatcounter parameters. The IQ.2+ is also convincing due to its mixing and scratching capacities: adjustable high-quality faders, handy equalizer potentiometers, minifader for cue mix and dry/wet as well as the oversized, vintage-styled master volume turning knob enable easy control. The IQ mixer's design is singularly aggressive and well arranged at the same time: the upper cover panel has a feeble rubberpaint finish, the lower panel is made of brushed aluminum. In contrast, the glowing red knob illumination and LEDs are distinctive. The IQ.2+: the first step into a new mixer era.

IQ2+ USB
The IQ.2+ USB rounds off the concept of intelligent quality and it facilitates the integration of Reloop's new remix mixer into computer-supported peripherals. Two high-speed USB ports allow the simultaneous master signal output and input of USB sources. This way the IQ.2+ USB becomes the interface of a digital sound experience.
