Welcome to the world of impulse shaping!
The nvelope 500 is capable of making subtle or drastic chang-
es to a sound by providing control over its attack and sustain
characteristics. This is very useful for reshaping individual
tones, and is a wonderful tool in any mixing situation as well.
The nvelope 500 operates independently of the specific level
of a signal, and (unlike with compressors) you do not have to
spend a lot of time trying to balance a set of complex controls
to quickly get the results you seek.
With its unique Dual Band mode, the nvelope 500 gives you
enhanced control over processing, and can easily handle com-
plex program material. Its dynamics sections can also be by-
passed, allowing it to function as a flexible high/low shelf EQ.
We’re sure you’ll be happy to know the nvelope 500 offers true
dual mono or linked stereo operation whether you are using it
in Full Range, Dual Band or EQ mode.
