Millenia has announced the NSEQ-HF 500 series module. We have the details.
This is what Millenia say about their latest unit.
“Ever wonder how they get those amazing clear vocals or the sparkle of an acoustic guitar? The NSEQ's HF section has been used on countless recordings as a not-so secret trick to add musical sparkle to vocals, acoustic instruments and the entire mix. The most frequent comment we hear from our mastering clients: "...the 21k doesn't sound like an EQ ... It sounds like music."
NSEQ-4 ultra-low noise circuitry has been incorporated into the affordable NSEQ-HF 500 series module, including Millennia's all-discrete third generation Class A JFET FSA-03 EQ amplifier and true-differential all-discrete JFET DSA-01 Class A line amplifier, delivering unparalleled sonic reality.
Choose peaking or shelving filter shapes. Select 1 of 6 frequency centers from 4.8k to 21k and dial in the sound. The cut/boost range is +/- 18dB, controlled by a 21-position detented gain control. A gain range switch allows for finer adjustment by changing the range to +/- 9dB. The NSEQ-HF's Input switch compensates for the 6dB level difference when using an unbalanced input.”
