Alesis announces the introduction of Ineko(tm)-an ingenious, compact, desktop stereo effects processor-at Winter NAMM. With its metallic gun-gray, industrial design and over the top sounds, Ineko redefines effects processing by providing top-quality, user-friendly, real-time effects at an unbeatable price. Scheduled for release later this winter, Ineko lists at $199. Designed for music recording, DJ and dance applications, as well as recording and live performance, the new Alesis Ineko gives the user the power to control real-time effects via a simple intuitive user interface. The uncomplicated faceplate sports a 6 x 8 LED grid/program display which shows the 48 high-quality reverbs, delays, filters and their parameters. Three dedicated knobs control effects parameters, alleviating the need for confusing displays, menus and "soft" keys. The large knobs provide dedicated real-time control over key functions, making Ineko ideal for use in DJ applications, where effects are part of the performance. A bypass button gives users the ability to engage or disengage signal effects during use. While Ineko offers top quality reverb and delay programs, it also offers an arsenal of unique effects, from sub-harmonic synthesizer, fuzz, vibrowobbel and formant-filter, to frequency-shifter, band-limiter, decimator, vocoder and a range of more traditional effects such as chorus, vibrato, flanger and phasers. Effects are conveniently grouped by category. Product Marketing Manager Randy Neiman relates, "While the smaller self-contained 'porta-studio' type products continue to be popular among musicians, the effects typically found in those boxes are easily outgrown because they don't offer much in the way of versatility or imagination. We realize there are many musicians out there who just want interesting, signature effects-right now-and they don't have the time or inclination to delve into the technical and often tedious aspects of signal processing. Ineko gives musicians what they really want: immediate, one-of-a-kind effects that will make their music better." The competitively priced Ineko also features 24-bit converters, 1/4" stereo inputs and outputs, trim control and comes equipped with an Alesis P-3 power supply.
