The new Space Station SST-206 combines the reissue of the Ursa Major Space Station, a classic reverb and effects unit, with a powerful modern reverberation system in a case smaller than a typical paperback book. The SST-206, easily held in one hand during operation, is based on a 150MHz 24 bit Motorola DSP chip. The new Space Station measures 6.4 x 4.8 x 0.6 inches, provides AES/EBU digital I/O, and accepts 24 bit audio at 48 or 44.1kHz. It is powered by a small external supply built into the breakout cable and operates from all overseas and domestic AC mains.
| Pure Delay | 16 patterns of 8 delay tap times, from 1 to 255ms with 1ms resolution |
| Reverb | |
| Echo | A family of effects that include feedback of short time delays that give resonant filter frequency responses with high Q factors. Under 30ms delay results in a filter as opposed to echo, and increased delay from 30-255ms results in a smooth transition to echo effects. |
The reissue offers early Space Station enthusiasts a chance to replace their older units with a smaller, more reliable device. Unlike the original Space Station, which was a 3U rack mount product, the entire SST-206 product fits into what appears to be its remote control. The remote is the reverb. The entire product is packaged in one small box to reduce its cost, and at the same time give users access to every reverb control from the sweet spot at the console. You don’t have to get down on your hands and knees in the dark to adjust this reverb in an equipment rack. In fact, there’s nothing to mount in a rack."
