1. Introduction

TC1210 is a thorough recreation of the famed TC 1210 Spatial Expander + Stereo Chorus Flanger rack unit - the same sound, the same feel, but with updated controls to t in with a modern DAW-based workow.
Based on the original schematics and careful measurements of several refurbished units, the new TC1210 emulates the analog circuitry and innovative dual-engine modulation down to the very last detail. To make absolutely sure the sound, versatility and tone came out awless, we even had studio pros and longtime 1210 users such as Tony Maserati work alongside our development team.
And it really does sound fantastic both as a modulation eect and as a spatial expander on anything from strings and keys to vocals, roaring drums, synths and expressive guitar tracks.
TC1210 is a one-of-a-kind in the world of DAWs, just like the original was the absolute rst of its kind when we designed it back in 1985.
We hope you’ll enjoy it as much as we do!
