Ursa Major Space Station

soundonsound.com

The Ursa Major Space Station SST-282 impresses with its vintage charm and modern enhancements. Its unique sound character, stemming from accurately recreated original algorithms, now includes a sophisticated new Room program. The compact design with an attractive control surface is a plus, offering rich, customizable effects. However, its reliance on digital I/O, lack of preset memories, and a cumbersome manual could deter some users. While it demands hands-on control and doesn't suit preset-dependent users, those seeking vintage-style reverbs and interesting delay effects will find this unit rewarding. Overall, it's a well-designed, superb-sounding effects processor.
