How we made our biggest library ever
The sound that is going through The Stack is dancing around (the room). It’s more than stereo, it feels three dimensional.
Aaron Guice - Afrorack Founder
A monstrous ensemble of electronic equipment captured through the largest amount of amps ever recorded.
Featuring: The Colossus (aka Dave), 8 x Lyras-8 S, modular rig (aka the Wall) 4 x electric guitars, 2 x bass guitars, 2 x Deckard’s Dream MkII, 2 x Juno 6, 2 x Sequential Prophets, an original Roland Tr-808
Expression Through amplification
Four amp levels make up The Stack. Each effortlessly activated via Aperture’s unique controls. Achieve new seismic levels of expression by controlling dynamics and the number of amps simultaneously. Moving from the smallest Aperture setting, the tight and precise sound from fewer amps building with ferocity and intensity as you open up the Aperture ring giving you a range of sounds you are unlikely to hear again — an imagined Aperture in sound.
