The Aphex 204 adds big bass, crisp vocals and Denver studio CCM has just added one to their long list of high end studio gear. It is a professional two channel audio processor where each channel independently has an Aphex Aural Exciter section and an Optical Big Bottom section. The unit therefore may be operated on a stereo pair or as completely separate channels for use in mixdown sessions. Having trouble getting the right sound for your bass, beats, or any instrument with a low end, come to CCM and check out the Aphex 204!
In the current age of computer plug-in-everythings , the Aphex 204 may be a unit not so well know to some engineers. Here are some interesting facts:
The patented Aural Exciter enhances detail, clarity and imaging. It has even been scientifically proven to increase intelligibility. It pulls a vocal or an instrument up out of a mix. It punches up an entire mix, even in a noisy or reverberant environment.
Also, the new Optical Big Bottom adds low-end punch with deeper, more powerful bass. This enhanced bass can be packed into your tracks without overloading the recorder and into your PA system without adding more amps or speakers.
The Aural Exciter restores the subtle nuances that are often damaged in the recording process. Its patented Transient Discriminate Harmonics Generator determines which parts of the signal need harmonic enhancement while other “enhancers” do not have this intelligence, making their effect much less musical. The effect creates more space around each element of the mix and greater overall dimensionality. Additionally, the Big Bottom gives more and deeper bass without overloading the recording medium. Also, record your stereo masters, CDs, and car tapes through the Model 204 – they will sound better no matter what the source or where you play them back, this even applies to heavily bit rate reduced audio sources such as MP3 files. ![]()
