Reviews"The effect is shattering! Maybe there'll come a time when this sort of processor is built into amplifiers...made my music sound the way I knew that it should."
- Music Technology
"BBE increases intelligibility ...restores harmonics and improves clarity ...recaptured natural sparkle and punch."- Mix
"...it's awesome - making every guitar sound distinct and articulate... gorgeous, full tone."
- Fret's Magazine
An important point: This unit requires a line level signal to operate. The signal produced by a guitar, bass, or microphone is not amplified and not a line level signal. Therefore, you shouldn't plug them straight into the Sonic Maximizer. You will first need to route these signals through a mixer or preamp.
