It was time to rethink things…Sony invested time and money to develop their next major effort in digital studio effects, the DPS series released in 1991. The Mu-R201 was hugely successful in Japan, but no so much elsewhere. In 1986 Sony released the Sony MU-R201, a far more affordable reverb, and a true stereo in and out reverb for the first time. It was some years before Sony introduced a new product, but they never made another digital reverb at that price point again. The Sony DRE-2000 has been loved by Chris Lord Alge for many years and he has created some amazing mixes using the Sony DRE-2000 for reverb duties. The Sony DRE-2000 was launched in 1981, and was a very expensive product for it’s time, and still are if you can find a working unit. Sony entered the world of digital studio effects with a bang, a big bang.
