Description:

Buzz. Beep and bloop. We’re high on the lo-fi sounds of “old-school” games, toys and terminals and the Mainframe Bit Crusher takes us back in time to when Pac Man and Donkey Kong ruled the arcades, to when the Commodore 64 was high tech.

It provides sample rate reduction ranging from 48kHz to 110Hz. A little background… the sample rate is the number of times per second that a sample or snapshot of an analog signal is taken. For example, CDs (remember them?) had a sample rate of 44.1kHz which means that the original analog signal is sampled 44,100 times per second.

The sample rate defines the frequency range that can be reproduced while maintaining good fidelity. When the sample rate is reduced the quality of the audio is degraded and aliasing occurs. Aliasing means audible artifacts created when higher frequencies are sampled at an inadequate rate and the result is distortion. The Mainframe’s sample rate range is wide enough to take you from sounds that are quite pristine to sounds that are unrecognizable when compared to the input signal.

It also provides bit crushing ranging from 24-bit to 1-bit. What does that mean? Bit crushing is bit depth reduction. Back to our CD example… CDs used a 16-bit bit depth meaning that each of its samples was represented by 16-bits of information. Higher bit depths can accurately represent a greater dynamic range while bit crushing increases the number of sampling errors and creatively degrades the sound to bring us back to those nasty “old school” sounds we love.

The Mainframe’s selectable High/Low/Band-Pass filter lets the user shape the artifacts of the bit crushing and sample rate. Another very cool feature is its Sample Rate Tuning Mode where the pedal analyzes your input signal in real-time and sets the sample rate to match the pitch of your signal, or a set interval above your signal. This allows you to set the sample rate to match the key of a song, or it will continually adjust the sample rate based on what you play!

QUICK SPECS:
• Sample Rate Reduction ranging from 48kHz to 110Hz
• Bit Depth Reduction ranging from 24-bit to 1-bit
• Selectable High/Low/Band-Pass filter to shape the artifacts of the bit crushing and sample rate reduction
• Sample Rate Tuning Mode allows you to set the sample rate to match the key of a song, or continually adjust the sample rate based on what you play on your instrument
• Programmable preset or expression pedal setting allows you to save your sound or control any combination of the Mainframe’s knobs with an external expression pedal
• Secondary knob parameters allow you to fine-tune the Mainframe’s effect.
• High quality buffered bypass and silent switching
• Comes equipped with an Electro-Harmonix 9.6DC-200mA PSU

    **Reliable and Efficient: Nilight 50FT 14AWG Speaker Wire Review**
    Size: 14AWG-50FT
    I recently set up my home theater system using the Nilight 50FT 14AWG Copper Clad Aluminum Wire, and I'm quite satisfied with its performance. The 14 gauge thickness is ideal for ensuring high-quality sound transmission, which is crucial for a setup like a 5.1 surround sound system. Although it's not pure copper, which some audiophiles might prefer, the copper clad aluminum (CCA) used in this wire provides a great balance of quality and value. It's flexible, lightweight, and offers good corrosion resistance, making it an excellent alternative to more expensive pure copper wires. The wire comes in a 50-foot length, which was just enough for my setup with speakers placed at various points around the room. One of the features I appreciate most about this product is the color-coded PVC jacket. It simplifies the installation process by making it easy to differentiate polarity, reducing the risk of errors during setup. The wire is also easy to handle; it cuts and strips smoothly, allowing for a clean and secure connection. The environmental PVC jacket provides good elasticity and fire resistance, adding an extra layer of safety to its use in home environments. While the jacket is thick, it's important to note that it isn't shielded, so I made sure to route it away from power cords to avoid potential interference. Overall, the Nilight 14AWG wire is an excellent choice for anyone looking to install a reliable and effective speaker system at home. It's straightforward to use, provides great performance, and comes at a cost-effective price point. I would definitely consider purchasing it again for future projects. Whether you're setting up a new system or upgrading an existing one, this wire is definitely worth considering.

    Ordered a spool of wire to install a new light bar and rock lights on my Jeep. Did the trick and cheaper than most other brands.

    Decent copper clad aluminum
    Size: 14AWG-50FT
    If you want the best wire, you should probably go with pure copper wire. It is more expensive but conducts better and thus is more efficient and less likely to heat up. If you are doing a low power, short run of cable, however, this wire should serve your purposes well. My purposes for such wire are varied. I am a licensed ham, like to build circuits, and have an electrical engineering degree. Depending on the specific tasks I'm on, some I'll gladly use this wire, others I'll go with pure copper. In comparison to other similar copper clad aluminum wire I've used in the past, the wire is pretty flexible and easy to work with. I also prefer the softer insulation like this has. You need to fit the wire to the job but if you have the job this is right for, it'll serve you well.

    good wire for the price
    Size: 14AWG-50FT
    This speaker wire is of good quality. I don’t know what to say about it besides that its 14 gauge, which is a bit on the thick side, but good for getting high quality sound or for doing long runs of cable. Its not pure copper, but that's not really necessary unless you are an audiophile and even then, i wonder if its really noticeable. The 50 feet it comes with is enough for a 5.1 surround system, as long as your speakers aren’t too far away. I haven't noticed any weird sounds from my system after setting it up with this cable. The housing is relatively thick but not shielded, so I was careful to keep it away from power cords. All in all this is good cable, especially for the price, and I would purchase it again.

    Not as good as pure copper, but maybe good enough
    Size: 14AWG-50FT, Size: 14AWG-50FT
    This wire is copper-clad aluminum, which means you sacrifice some conductivity for a for a less expensive conductor. This wire is very lightly clad with copper - the thinness of the copper coating is obvious from a casual observation (see image). I measured 4-wire resistance across the entire length (50') of wire - it comes out to 0.34 ohms on each lead. This is a bit less than double what you'd expect from an equivalent length of the same gauge of multistrand copper, so if you're planning on running a long length of this it might be prudent to pretend that you're working with a slightly smaller gauge than you actually are. That is exactly the approach I'm taking with it, and it works well for me within that context.
