Endless Analog CLASP
— System
inventor Chris Estes will tour U.K. studios for demonstration sessions
this spring —
NASHVILLE,
TN, March 8, 2011 — Endless
Analog announces that it has appointed KMR
Audio as its U.K. dealer for its CLASP® (Closed Loop Analog
Signal Processor), the critically acclaimed pro audio product that
invisibly merges real analog tape with Pro Tools and other DAWs. The
system has been on demonstration since mid-February in KMR's dedicated
listening room at the company’s London headquarters. CLASP’s
inventor Chris Estes and his team will be in the U.K. this spring
to help hold demonstrations at area recording studios. Interested
studios should contact KMR as soon as possible, as demonstrations
are limited and will be booked on a first-come-first-served basis.
KMR
Sales Manager Stefan Pope exclaimed, “CLASP is probably the
most exciting thing to happen to the recording industry for ten years.
It means that the analog tape sound we all love is now available to
everyone without sacrificing time or flexibility! When tape-based
recording was largely replaced by DAW’s, it left a sonic void
that plug-ins have not been able to fill, hence the trend for returning
to analog tape for some parts of the recording process. CLASP is tape
at digital speed. It routes all audio to tape then lines it up with
sample accuracy in the DAW in real time. All the functionality of
the DAW remains, but your computer will sound like your tape machine.
You’ll spend more time recording, and no time waiting for transfers,
Lynx boxes or SMPTE. Even better, tape costs are low. A single reel
can last up to 10,000 hours!”
KMR
Managing Director Keith Malin added, “We are honored to be working
with such an exciting, innovative company as Endless Analog!”
Estes,
also the President and Founder of Endless Analog, stated, “We
are very excited to be partnering with KMR in the U.K., and I am looking
forward to our studio tour in the spring. With Britain’s venerable
history in recording and audio production, it is fitting that the
U.K. should take a particular interest in CLASP. So many classic recordings
were done using analog tape machines, and CLASP truly bridges the
concept of recording using analog tape with the convenience and efficiency
of digital workflow.”
