The BBE Model 802 Sonic Maximizer is a piece of vintage audio processing equipment known for adding clarity and enhancing the high frequencies of audio signals. Here's a closer look at its features and considerations:
Features:
- Sonic Maximization: The BBE 802 utilizes BBE's proprietary process to enhance the high-frequency content of the audio. This can make the sound appear brighter, more detailed, and improve the perceived clarity, particularly in recordings or broadcasts where high frequencies might be attenuated.
- Phase Correction: The BBE 802 incorporates a phase correction circuit that aims to address potential phase issues within the audio signal. In theory, this can improve the overall stereo imaging and widen the perceived soundstage.
- Analog Design: The BBE 802 is an analog processor, meaning it manipulates the audio signal electronically through physical circuits.
Applications:
- Studio Processing: In recording studios, the BBE 802 was sometimes used as a mastering tool to add a touch of brightness and enhance clarity, particularly for recordings made with analog equipment which might have rolled off some highs.
- Live Sound Reinforcement: In live sound setups, it can be used to improve the perceived clarity of instruments or vocals in the PA system.
