It is with a heavy heart that we must inform you of the passing of our dear friend and partner, Professor Paul Rossiter. Many of you may know him as the brilliant mind behind the development of the TVS3 echo unit, which brought joy to countless individuals across the globe. Paul's contributions to our community and beyond were invaluable, and his legacy will continue to resonate. Spike and Gary TVS Specialty Products

Hello Spike
With Patrice Bastien and Alain de Provence we had many discussions with Paul some time ago about Hank's SEP document. These exchanges were of high quality and with the rigor of an authentic researcher Paul lent us his ear and shared his knowledge, among other things, on the construction by Patrice Bastien of Hank's MS clone Paul, I will keep your emails carefully Thank you Spike for translating all my compassion and esteem to his family.
regards
Bernard from France

So sad to hear this tragic news. To us he freely gave much time and knowledge. He was a true gentleman. A legend to us fans and always ready to share his knowledge. We may have lost a friend but this is insignificant to the loss that Gary, Spike and more importantly his family must be feeling. Thank you and RIP.

Spike, my deepest condolences to Paul's family; and my heartfelt sympathies to you and Gary.
I had no inkling of health issues (but it may explain the winding up of TVS production). I'm actually feeling rather numb. Through rigorous logic and the application of actual science Paul 'cracked the code' of Hank's classic early guitar and echo tones way better than anyone else - and packaged this magic in the wonderfully accessible TVS units. I am forever grateful to Paul (and you guys) for this easily available 'miracle' whenever I wish to plug in switch it on.
I'm still absorbing this news ...
My Kindest Regards,
Dick Busser

Paul was a friendly and decent man he had a fantastic electronics knowledge some of which he learned from his dad.
I contacted Paul a few years ago now about building me a TVS3 and he informed me that he would not be building any more of these amazing units. That was not the end though....Paul being who he was knew just how much I wanted a TVS3, so he looked around in Australia,online? maybe I don't know, but he found a guy in Sydney who was selling his dads TVS3 and Paul comtacted me with this guy's details.After talking to this guy we ageed a price of £1600 which I considered pretty good for a second hand TVS3, I would have payed a LOT more because I desperately wanted to get my hands on one of these ( already legendary ) units.
I had a word with Paul and told him I had talked to the guy in Sydney and had agreed a price of £1600, he suggested for me to ask the guy to send it to HIM in Perth and HE would check it over for me and give the TVS3 a clean bill of health. Paul checked it out for me and said it LOOKED and BEHAVED like NEW.
Paul packed it up for me and arranged ALL the shipping & insurance etc and shipped it over here to England for me. As you can imagine...after paying for the guy to ship the TVS3 from Sydney to Paul in Perth and paying Paul for everything HIS end it cost me a LOT more than £1600 but knowing Paul had personally checked over my TVS3 gave me great peace of mind.
Paul has helped me a LOT over the last few years answering my many questions etc that was the kind of person he was and although I never got to actually meet Paul, I considered him my friend.
I personally will miss him and I know all of you will too....as I said his LEGACY, the TVS3 will always keep Paul in my memory.
Wherever you are Paul....a heartfelt THANK YOU for all your help.
Steph.

My condolences to Paul's friends and Family. A sad loss to our community, I'm sure we have all benefited from his contributions on this and other forums. Although I've never used a TVS I have learnt so much from the various discussions, as I'm sure we all have. RIP Paul.
