VESTAX / DCR-2500F

The first product of the Vestax brand's revival! The DCR-2500F is a revolutionary parametric isolator that allows you to freely adjust the crossover points in addition to the three knobs Lo, Mid, and Hi. It also has a resonance function at the crossover point, and can be used as a high-pass, low-pass, band-pass, or notch filter effect.

●This is a high-performance isolator that inherits the basic circuit of the famous isolator VESTAX DCR-1500. ●The two crossover frequencies, which have a wide range of settings, can be easily adjusted steplessly while playing. Not only can it accommodate kick and hi-hat frequency bands that differ depending on the song, but the act of moving the crossover frequency itself can produce different effects. (High pass filter, low pass filter, mid pass filter, notch filter) ●The resonance functions synchronized with the two crossover frequencies can provide filter effect effects in addition to the conventional isolator. ●The switching noise has been solved by adopting a VCA circuit to eliminate the small noise when switching the effect on/off. You can safely turn the effect on/off in quiet songs. In addition, since the lever is made of metal, there is no need to worry about it breaking even during intense transformer play. ●The volume control and level meter are installed, so you can not only set the volume to match the connected device, but you can also visually check whether the LR signal is coming in, which is reassuring in a dark and narrow DJ booth. The on/off status of the effect can be checked by the color of the LED at the tip of the lever (green for ON, red for OFF). ●When connecting the input from a small-output device, you can easily match levels by turning on the +10dB gain switch located next to the jack. ●To facilitate smooth rotation, the simple cylindrical knob has no protrusions that may catch on your fingertips, and is all luxuriously machined from machined aluminum. ●Its compact size makes it easy to carry around. ●Made in Japan ●Body dimensions/weight: 152 (W) x 111 (D) x 55 (H) mm (not including knobs, including feet) 1.6 kg (not including power adapter) (Maximum dimensions: Approx. 152 (W) x 115.5 (D) x 69.5 (H) mm including knobs, feet, and RCA jack heads) ●Power supply: DC24V 0.5A (center positive) Please use the dedicated power adapter included Power adapter input AC100V to 240V (switching type) ●Power consumption: 2.8W (unit alone) Power consumption including AC adapter is 3.5W Specifications ●Rated input: -10dBu 1 stereo system (RCA pin jack) / with +10dB level matching switch Impedance 490kΩ (1kHz) ●Rated output: -10dBu 1 stereo system (RCA pin jack) Impedance 35Ω (1kHz) *Number of isolator bands: 3 bands (LOW/MID/HI) *Isolation level adjustment range: -∞ to +6dB (0dB with knob in center position) *Crossover frequency adjustment range: LOW-MID 68Hz to 705Hz (knob in center position, 270Hz) MID-HI 2.85kHz to 16.5kHz (knob in center position, 4.9kHz) *Resonance peak level: +10dBu when knob is at MAX (LOW, MID, HI in center position) +4.5dBu (LOW, MID or HI in -∞ position) *Frequency characteristics (effect ON, LOW, MID, HI in center position, RES.
