Born from the collaboration between AC noises and Andrea Degli Esposti from BunkerNoise, RICORDA is the first stereo unit in AC noises' current catalog. This innovative effect pedal pushes the boundaries of sonic exploration, offering musicians and sound designers a powerful tool for crafting immersive soundscapes. At the heart of RICORDA lies an incredibly powerful DSP, more commonly found in modular synthesizers than effect pedals. This advanced processing unit enables RICORDA to provide an extensive array of parameters for sculpting and shaping reverberant spaces. Users can control everything from the density and size of the grains to their feedback and stereo spread, opening up virtually limitless possibilities for sonic experimentation. RICORDA's versatility is further enhanced by its dual-mode operation: Primary Mode Features: Mono/Stereo Input Toggle Switch Comprehensive Reverb Controls (Mix, Decay, Size, Tone) Granular Parameters (Mix, Number, Size, Time) Octave Selection (0 or +12 semitones) Freeze/Loop Functionality Secondary Mode Enhancements: Advanced Reverb Parameters (Diffuse, LFO Speed, LFO Depth, Pre-Delay) Extended Granular Controls (Feedback, Spray, Stereo Spread, Pitch Offset) Output Configuration Options (True Stereo/Dual Mono) Pre/Post Granular Processing RICORDA's Freeze mode captures a momentary snapshot of the audio signal, sustaining it infinitely. This feature is ideal for creating drones or intricate sonic landscapes. The Loop function offers up to 2 minutes of recording time, with the ability to overdub layers infinitely. For maximum flexibility, RICORDA provides a USB-C port for future firmware updates, ensuring that the pedal can evolve alongside the needs of its users. Whether you're a guitarist seeking lush, expansive reverbs or an experimental sound artist pushing the boundaries of granular synthesis, RICORDA offers a deep well of creative potential. Ships fast and free, cuz that's how we be!
