BBE 362 Sonic Maximizer

The 362 series delivers the sound-improving benefits of a BBE SONIC MAXIMIZER™ signal processor with the convenience of ganged-stereo operation. To understand how BBE sound processing works, consider the characteristics of a loudspeaker and what we expect from one. Among a loudspeaker's most important requirements is the ability to reproduce transients — the brief high-energy bursts at the beginning of sounds. The transients then evolve into harmonics. It is the particular amplitudes and phase relationships of these transients and harmonics which add the unique color and character to each sound. Varying either the amplitude or the phase of the transients and harmonics within signal causes distortion of the sound's characteristics. By drastically altering the transient response of a sound, it's possible to make a cymbal crash seem like a car crash. Similarly, altering amplitude or phase relationships of the harmonics in a clarinet's tone can make it sound more like a flute, or a French horn like an oboe.

With BBE sound processing technology, music has great "live presence." Highs are clearer, naturally brilliant and more finely detailed. Lows are tight, well defined, and harmonically rich. Electric and acoustic guitars have sparkle, clarity, and definition. BBE¬ sound processing brings out the harmonic complexity and bite significantly increases cutting power. Each note of a chord becomes more distinct. Brings your guitar out of the "mud." Keyboards and synthesizers take on new realism. Percussive and plucked sounds are clear and sharp, chords are rich and full-textured, each note in the chord retains its integrity. Electric & acoustic basses take on that rich, earthy "CD" sound. Five string players love what it does to the "B" string. Extremely tight, punchy bottom end with all the presence, clarity and bite of the top end. Vocals cut through the amplified instrument so you can be heard better. Lyrics of the sound are no longer "buried in the mix". Recording studios, home and professional, on individual tracks, multi-track down to 2 track, cassette duplication and mastering, BBE sound processing brings out the full spectrum of sound. Mixes are fresh and sparkly. BBE sound processing expands the spatial dimension of stereo reverb and chorus. BBE sound processing will give you enough sparkle to restore instrument clarity or increase vocal intelligibility without appreciably adding level.
