Klanghabitat CASSIOPEIA API 500 Module Vacuum Tube Universal Saturator

Thank you for looking.
We are selling various products due to a reorganization of studio equipment.

This brand is produced in Germany, a country with many professional music equipment manufacturers such as RME, and is currently gaining attention worldwide.

This is a genuine domestic product purchased from Miyaji Gakki.
It is a vacuum tube saturator, and compared to other products with similar structures, it provides a very elegant saturation.
It can be used for individual instrument sounds, mixes, and stereo use, making it suitable for mastering as well.
It creates a 3D sound that naturally brings the sound forward.
The saturation level can be adjusted by controlling how much vacuum tube is used, how much of that sound is mixed, and the master volume.
While simple, the controls are sufficient and necessary.

As shown in photo 3, there is a thin line from rubbing when mounted, but it is in clean condition overall.
Domestic genuine product price: 148,000 yen

Includes a bonus plugin version license worth approximately 8,000 yen.

For those who are looking for this, or for those who want a 3D sound that cannot be achieved with plugins, this is a great opportunity.

No returns or exchanges accepted except for initial defects.

Below is a brief summary of reviews, including those from overseas.
