Powerful By Design
TC1210 perfectly recreates the coveted sound of the TC 1210 Spatial Expander + Stereo Chorus Flanger, which has found its way into the hands of great artists such as Eric Clapton, Aphex Twin and Alex Lifeson. Based on the original schematics and careful measurements, TC1210 captures all the details, including the beautiful inaccuracies of the analog circuitry that made the original a thing of legendary status.

Metering & More
Besides input and output meters for signal monitoring directly on the hardware interface, the optional hardware add-on for TC1210 provides an innovative “Sigma LFO meter”, which reflects your modulation and helps you intuitively adjust the effect. The hands-on controls let you tune all tone-defining parameters, including the complexity of the stereo pattern, the combination of modulation effects and much more.
