Cranborne Audio Carnaby HE2

A natural evolution of Cranborne's Carnaby 500, the HE2 2-channel Harmonic EQ provides two of their breakthrough analog harmonic saturation circuits with a handful of convenient features for getting the most out of this creative spectral processor. Perfect for stereo, dual-mono, or mid-side applications, the HE2 is ready to bring powerful shaping and saturation in an easily digestible 3-band EQ arrangement.

Effortlessly lift the air and breath of vocals and acoustic instruments, dial in mid-range emphasis, or boost and warm your low end with 3-bands of analog saturation in different flavors. 20dB of input or output gain control gives you a dynamic response, adding more harmonic energy as the circuits are driven harder. The HE2 is conveniently capable of handling mid/side encoding and decoding, making it a perfect solution for creating stereo depth in processing all within a single unit. Taking things even further, a bypassable TRS insert is available on each channel for connecting other outboard gear after the mid/side encoding but before the Harmonic EQ.

Make the most of your sources, stems, and mixes with the HE2's musical and user-friendly design, ready to bring out the best of just about any signal you throw into it. With rich analog character, inventive design, and a handful of convenient I/O and digital control, the HE2 is sure to add powerful spectral processing to any modern studio workflow.
