Subject: RE: [AN1x-list] Aural Exciter

From: "Gustavo Bravetti" <cwavemm@...>

I think u can use it for boost mid to high frequencies, to add sharp and
clear to your sound.

Sounds like add some high harmonics that the dry sound haven’t or have at
very low levels.

Mae be like an eq for boost high frequencies, but with the diference that
not work over all the spectrum like a normal eq.


Mae be i’m wrong, i write this based on my own experience.

You're on the right track. I'm not sure if "runs them through and
overdrive" is correct, but the Aural Exciter seems to add a high frequency
presence, and maybe even some extra harmonics (???)

>Is this correct, or does it also do some animation (like a chorus)?

I don't believe so.

>Is this effect unique to Yamaha?

No, it's licensed from Aphex.

>Is it similar to the sonic maximizer (BBE)?

The END RESULT is similar. Whether the two methods use the same process is
difficult to figure out, as both companies consider their process something
of a trade secret, and so are not very forthcoming on the details.
