Key Features
The Cherry Audio Rackmode Signal Processors is a meticulously modelled recreation of a famous analog effects rack from the late '70s. Designed in collaboration with award-winning synth and DSP designer Mark Barton, the Rackmode Signal Processors offer an indistinguishable sound from the original, carefully maintaining the charm and character through meticulous circuit-level modelling. Comprised of seven effects, the Cherry Audio Rackmode Signal Processors extend the signature sound of legendary musical artists of the era to your productions with the inclusion of a Vocoder, Phaser, Ring Modulator, String Filter, Frequency Shifter, Graphic EQ and Parametric EQ.
Each module within the rack has been designed with the modern producer in mind. Stereo processing, host-syncable LFOs and more allow you to manipulate your sounds in a myriad of unique ways to find the best sound for your project. Discover why this sound is still revered by industry legends such as Sylvia Massy, Genesis, Tangerine Dream, Jan Hammer, Mouse on Mars, and Coldplay without the incurred cost of vintage analog hardware.
Product Ref: 219020
Replicating the classic sounds of the rack-mounted Moog Signal Processors of the '70s and '80s, the Cherry Audio Rackmode Signal Processor is an authentic replication that features seven virtual effects for your sonic exploration. Designed in collaboration with Mark Barton (MRB), the Cherry Audio Rackmode Signal Processor is the first of its kind to create an all-in-one virtual recreation of this revered effects unit. Modelling the circuits down to the minutia, the collection is indistinguishable in sound to the original, harnessing the charm and vintage flair that only analog equipment can provide.
The collection includes a Vocoder (instrument and effects versions), Phaser, Ring Modulator, String Filter, Frequency Shifter, Graphic EQ and Parametric EQ. Designed with the modern producer in mind, these rack-effects still exude the class and tone of the original hardware, however have been updated to accommodate modern producers. Presets, syncable LFOs, stereo processing and full Apple Silicon M1 native support allows you to freely express your creativity in however way you need to enhance your music.
During a time of musical expansion in the late '70s and early '80s, the need for new and exciting musical instruments was evident. Keen to explore a new avenue, the Signal Processor was developed by Moog Music to present rack-mounted effects processed that could deliver the in-demand studio sounds of the era. Designed in collaboration with Harald Bode, the Signal Processor introduced exciting and experimental effects such as a 16-channel Vocoder, 12-stage Phaser, ten band graphic EQ, three-band parametric EQ amongst a horde of other Bode-designed modules.
The signature sound of the Cherry Audio Rackmount Processor is engraved in popular music DNA, where artists such as Genesis, Jan Jammer, Tangerine Dream and more all still utilise the unit to this day.
As so often is the case with rare vintage synthesizers, the cost of owning one will extend beyond most people's reach. Tracking down an original hardware counterpart could cost within the 10's of thousands for a good condition unit. Factor in the maintenance and upkeep, owning a physical unit isn't always as glamorous as it may appear. With the Cherry Audio Rackmode Signal Processor, the indistinguishable sound and response put these vintage studio effects in your DAW for a fraction of the price, with the added benefit of modern digital workflow and processing power.
For many, the Rackmode Signal Processor will present the first opportunity to hear these effects in action, offering you the chance to recreate your favourite synth sounds of the '70s and '80s. These classic sounds go hand-in-hand with modern production workflows and freedom of processing that modern computers offer, allowing you to create a virtual rack filled with effects to experiment with, carving your unique sonic identity.
