The BBE 362 Sonic Maximizer delivers the sound-improving benefits of a Discreet Stereo BBE SONIC MAXIMIZER™ signal processor with the convenience of ganged controls With the patented BBE Process, music has a great "live presence". Unlike some "exciter" devices which add artificial harmonics to the signal, BBE adds nothing artificial but instead restructures it to faithfully allow all the detail and nuance to be heard. Highs frequencies are clear, naturally brilliant and finely detailed. Lows are tight, well defined and harmonically rich. Electric and acoustic guitars have sparkle, clarity and definition. BBE brings out the harmonic complexity so each note of a chord becomes more distinct. Electric & acoustic basses take on a rich, earthy "CD" sound. BBE yields extremely tight, punchy bottom end without sacrificing the presence, clarity and bite on the top end. Vocals cut through the amplified instruments so you’re no longer "buried in the mix". Sound contractors know that vocal intelligibility is paramount to a successful PA installation and client satisfaction. No other audio processor brings natural clarity and crisp definition to the spoken word like BBE does. That's why BBE Sonic Maximizer processors can be found installed in PA systems ranging from the massive network in New York's JFK airport to the thousands of houses of worship around the world. Recording studios use BBE on individual tracks, mixdown, and of course in mastering. Mixes with BBE are fresh and sparkly, restoring instrument clarity and vocal intelligibility without appreciably adding level. BBE improves effect processing by expanding the spatial dimension of stereo reverb and chorus. Whether in an individual instrument rack or across a full mix, BBE makes a dramatic improvement in the quality of effects and neutralizes their tendency to muffle instrument and vocal characteristics.

I own it. I've used this model on electric and acoustic guitars, and on vocals. Taking all the tech-speak out of it, the only way to really describe what this does is to say that it adds "sparkle" to the sound. This doesn't replace proper EQ - you still need to roll off some mids and take the boom out of the low end on an acoustic, for example - but it does help instruments and vocals cut through. It restores clarity to vocals and helps guitars "ring" with good harmonics without adding any other off-flavors (like chorusing or flanging). I currently use this in an effects loop on a Mackie mixing board to add depth and sparkle to the main mix in live settings (five-piece rock band, instruments miced or line in). I also use it for live solo acoustic work on both the guitar and vocals, and in recordings (direct in and mixdown). It is the best $100 you'll ever drop on a piece of musical equipment.

I've been using one of these in an equipment rack at home that I use to convert old analog source material: open-reel, 8 track, cassette and records. For those of you under 30, yes, that's what we called vinyl back in the days before consumer digital audio was available: there were two main categories - LPs: 12" 33-1/3 RPM, and singles: 7" 45 RPM. Plus, our parents even had old 10" 78 RPM shellac records in MONO (that's MONAURAL, not MONONUCLEOSIS)!
I use this setup to archive and preserve mostly rare, hard to find, or out of print material on record or tape before the medium they're on degenerates to the point where the signal can no longer be preserved with any quality.
Anyway, I use this along with a compressor/noisegate set as a limiter, and a graphic EQ set to restore lost frequencies and boost amplitude to max before distortion, to dub first to MD (minidisc). After the minidisc dub, I create track breaks, and the opticially dub to CD, after which I load the CD into my computer and rip the tracks to 192K MP3s.
It's amazing the quality I can obtain from an old well-preserved cassette or record with this in the signal chain. It really does make old songs sound new again. I have dubbed several recordings from well-preserved cassettes and albums, that other than the presence of slight surface/media noise, actually sound better than some of the hasty CD re-releases of old records that have found their way to market.

This is nice that the adjustments you make are for both channels. Make set up much faster.
