TC Electronic announces what every bass player has been waiting for - an amp rig without compromise TC Electronic announces what every bass player has been waiting for - an amp rig without compromise
For years, bass players have had to compromise with their amp rigs - but not anymore. TC Electronic enters the bass player market with an amp system without compromise - now bass players really can have it all
When it comes to designing revolutionary products, TC Electronic is used to taking the rulebook and ripping it up. After three decades of doing just that in the guitar, studio and desktop music making markets - and designing many award-winning and revolutionary products along the way - the company has now applied its considerable expertise to the bass market, with stunning results. The RH450 bass head, RS cabinets and RC4 remote combine to deliver an incredible bass rig that has been designed without compromise and one that will, quite simply, revolutionize the world of bass amplification. RH450 retails at a recommended price of EUR 950 excl. VAT, RS210 retails at a suggested price of EUR 480 excl. VAT, RS212 retails at a suggested price of EUR 580 and RC4 retails at a suggested retailprice of EUR 190 excl. VAT and all these fantastic units ship Q1 2009.
With RH450, RS and RC4, TC Electronic turns the bass amp market on its head with a system that delivers everything and loses nothing. It boasts a big sound, the best in new technology, ease of use and convenience - yet is practical, flexible and durable enough to be used on the road, in rehearsal rooms and in the studio.
RH450
BIG on power, BIG on personality
RH450 is loud and proud and hides some extraordinary technology behind its more traditional fascia. TC Electronic has a long heritage of designing amps, and with its Active Power Management has effectively designed an amp in RH450 that behaves very much like a tube amp with 450 Watts of power. The unit has traditional tone controls but also includes groundbreaking features to really give the amp a personality and sound all of its own. TubeTone emulates all of the characteristics of a traditional tube circuit to deliver an unparalleled and rich experience, while SpectraComp offers the best in studio quality compression for a live situation. With its per string compression, SpectraComp delivers more bite and punch than any other compressor in any other bass amp system. Importantly, as well at the ideal tone players can quickly and easily get the right pitch with RH450s on-board Tuner. Having a tuner is a fundamental need for bass players, yet so many other amp systems lack this essential asset.
Ultimate flexibility, ultimate portability - RH450 is the ideal amp for the studio, road and rehearsal room because bass players can easily take it anywhere they like and use it for whatever they like. With three on board user memories they can quickly swap sounds or instruments mid gig - an instant solution for those who want to recall their favourite sonic combinations or who take more than one bass guitar with them on tour. And for the touring musician, RH450s Auto-sensing PSU means that players can plug and play safely in whatever country they are in - no fuse changing necessary. But RH450 isnt just a great amp for touring. The Rehearsal Input socket allows bass players to plug in a variety of audio sources so they can play along with whatever tunes they like for practice, while the Recording Output connection, with a 96kHz direct to digital connection, also makes RH450 the perfect bass solution for the recording studio.
New technology, traditional values - RH450 is for every bass player.
With over 20 years experience at the forefront of Signal Processing technology, TC Electronic delivers the best in cutting edge features within RH450, but the unit is exceptionally easy to use thanks to the clear layout of the front panel and easily accessible back panel. RH450 will therefore appeal to all bass players, from those new to the bass right up to the professional player who appreciates the finer points of bass playing.
Finally, a system that delivers everything that a bass player needs in an amp. But theres more!
RS; the perfect on-stage cabinet solution
RH450 is available as a standalone unit or combined with custom made RS210 or RS212 bass cabinets. Where RH450 will transform the bass amp market, RS is a system that will revolutionize on-stage performance. Bass players who use traditional 4 x 10 cabs are always faced with the same problem when playing live: placing a 4 x 10 cabinet on the floor means they get great bottom end but no pitch recognition, but put it on a stand and they get great pitch but no low end. The solution is to use RS210s convenient vertical 4-driver stacking system that gives players the best of both worlds - great sound and pitch - and in a system thats light and portable enough for them to carry from gig to gig. RS212 is a 12 version that is as easy to stack as the 210, and both can be used in combination, making on-stage placement of cabinets a breeze.
RC4; total control at any time
Last but not least is the optional RC4 remote control system. Designed as a floor controller for RH450, RC4 offers a tuner indicator, three preset foot buttons to change the three user memories, and a mute button. RC4 is conveniently powered from the amp and is a great addition to the system.
TC Electronic welcomes bass players to a new era of amplification!
RH450, RS and RC4 herald a new dawn for bass amplification - suddenly the bass amp market has a 21st century product with revolutionary features, new technology and traditional values. Quite simply, no other amp rig blends the bes
