Red Sound XS-FX BPM, tempo synced effects processor

This is a fully functional XSFX RedSound Effects unit. It analyses the incoming audio to automatically detect BPM, letting you apply one or more tempo‑synced effects and tweak them live using the onboard controls. There’s also a manual tap‑tempo option. RedSound produced only a limited number of these before the company closed, so they’re not easy to find. The unit shows light cosmetic wear from normal use but operates exactly as it should. It comes with the original power supply.
Inputs include phono, mic, and line, with balanced line outputs—so it can double as a phono preamp when the effects are dialed out. Overall it’s in excellent condition.
