KMR DEMO ROOM: Latest Video
Written by Rab @KMRIn our latest KMR DEMO ROOM video, we put Cranborne Audio's innovative Carnaby HE2 HarmonicEQ through its paces. No talking, just audio...
Cranborne Audio CARNABY HE2 is a highly featured, stereo 3-band HarmonicEQ® analogue equalizer based on Cranborne’s innovative “saturation core” EQ circuit - the first truly new analogue EQ processing design in four decades.
Unlike conventional EQ’s, Carnaby HE2 exhibits a dynamic response, intensifying total boost/cut and harmonics as the circuits are driven harder. It’s a very different way of achieving audio equalization, while still using familiar parametric controls.
In addition to the three LO, MID and HI bands, Hi Cut and Lo Cut filters allow users to boost the saturation further and then shave off very high and low frequencies to tighten up the audio. All EQ bands can be individually bypassed for detailed control.
A dedicated plug-in allows total recall and realtime parameter automation from your DAW via USB or network remote control.
Carnaby HE2 offers a wide range of sonic flexibility while remaining very simple to use - either for surgical sculpting or broad sweep shaping with plenty of harmonic character.
In this demo video, all instruments have been independently processed using Carnaby HE2. We start by listening to the whole track, then break it down and build it up with each track processed/bypassed so you can judge the effect on each individual instrument.
