Sony DPS-V77 Stereo Multi Effects Processor - Used  From Sony

Overview

The Sony DPS-V77 is a professional 1U rackmount stereo multi-effects processor engineered to deliver high-resolution digital signal processing for professional recording, mixing, and mastering environments. Designed as a single, ultra-versatile solution, the DPS-V77 combines key algorithms from Sony's famed standalone DPS series—including the DPS-R7 (Reverb), DPS-D7 (Delay), DPS-M7 (Modulation), and DPS-F7 (Dynamic/Filter)—into one powerful multi-effects unit.

Dual-Block DSP Architecture

Featuring 52-bit internal quantization processing with 24-bit A/D conversion, the DPS-V77 provides exceptional dynamic range and audio fidelity. The core architecture is structured around two independent effect blocks plus dedicated EQ blocks, allowing algorithms to be routed in serial or parallel configurations for complex multi-effects creation.

Preset Morphing & Real-Time Control

The DPS-V77 introduces a Preset Morphing function that enables smooth, automated crossfading between two distinct presets without audible audio dropouts or artifacts. Real-time parameter modulation (RTC) is fully supported via MIDI control, assignable foot pedals, or front-panel controls.

Comprehensive I/O & Navigation

Built for seamless integration into both analog and digital studio setups, the unit features balanced XLR and 1/4" TRS analog inputs and outputs, as well as digital I/O supporting both AES/EBU and S/PDIF formats. Front-panel editing is streamlined via a large backlit graphic display, dedicated numeric keypad, and a dual-concentric jog/shuttle wheel for rapid parameter adjustment.

Key Features

• Comprehensive Algorithm Selection: Pulls algorithms from the renowned DPS-R7, D7, M7, and F7 processors, including rich halls, plates, delays, pitch-shifters, choruses, and filter effects.

• Dual DSP Block Topology: Two fully configurable effect blocks with flexible serial or parallel routing options.

• Preset Morphing: Enables seamless, continuous crossfading between two effects in real time without sound interruption.

• Flexible Memory Structure: Provides 198 Factory Presets alongside 198 User Preset Locations for storing custom effect configurations.

• High-Resolution Conversion: 1-bit A/D (24-bit resolution) and 20-bit D/A conversion with 52-bit internal processing quantization.

• Analog & Digital I/O: XLR balanced and 1/4" unbalanced analog I/O alongside digital I/O via optional break-out cables (AES/EBU & S/PDIF).

• Full MIDI & Real-Time Control: Full MIDI implementation for program changes, parameter automation (RTC), and continuous pedal control.
