SPL Vitalizer

[F5D]

Ok, here's a short demo: http://www.quandace.com/spl_vitalizer_demo.mp3

I ran 2 apple loops thru the vitalizer at 24bit 44.1kHz. These loops may not be the best ones to demonstrate the unit but I guess you get the idea what it can do. At first I turn the "bass" softer, then add brilliance to the maximum and decrease it a little bit. Finally I use the stereo expander, again to maximum and decrease a little. You can hear the unprocessed and processed audio a couple of times in the demo.

The stereo expander works very well and doesn't rotate the stereo image left or right like some behringer stuff does (crap anyway). These loops may not demonstrate the spread the best possible way but it is very good sounding. The brilliance knob boosts the highs and may sound harsh if you turn it too much but it's very useful too. The bass knob together with process knob work well and you can either boost low frequencies and get that "oomph" or if the audio has too much it, you can turn the bass knob to tight which cuts the bass a little (I'm not exactly sure what it does).

Anyway, this is a good fx unit if you can find one used. I will be using this for mastering and for individual tracks.

Ok, I have to continue testing the uad1 neve eq now which I also bought today! Sounds super smooth...
