OVERVIEW AND QUICKSTART
THE BIG PICTURE
The members of the Eventide DSP7000 family are programmable, multipurpose, 24-bit/96kHz digital audio
signal processors with UltraShifter
capability and are the stereo, single-processor companion product
range to the Eventide’s Orville. That’s a lot of adjectives! They are the successors to a long, proud line of
digital signal processors that stretches back to a time when most audio manufacturers didn’t know digital
audio from Morse code.
We’ve loaded the DSP7000 with features that put it in a class by itself. The variety and depth of its programs
are truly amazing, from lush reverbs, to choruses, to flanges, to delays, to pitch shifters, to dynamics, to
EQs, to filters, to distortions, to synthesizers, to samplers, to ring modulators, and to everything in-between.
The DSP7000 can do it all. And if that’s not enough, the DSP7500 boasts nearly three minutes of sample
time
in addition
to the 40 seconds of delay time!
And for the user who is interested in making his or her
own
programs (if the huge number of factory pro-
grams aren’t enough!), the DSP7000 family 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. . .
