There are two channels:

channel A: XLR or jack 6.5; XLR or jack 6.5
b channel: same

2 knobs for channel A, channel B the same for

the knob: lo contour and process for each channel.

Button BBE process, if lean on it, it is running: wow!
The channels are independent (one can use mono) but you can use the maximizer of a stereo signal, exit right on channel A for example and left channel output B (that clear?)

UTILIZATION

No more simple,

you branches,
t'allumes BBE,
You hear the sound that passes
BBE process of leaping the button, ET ben the process starts up, the sound changes
And then you turn the knobs according to the channel on which you are and rules to the ear.

In short, no simple nan?

SOUND QUALITY

So is the effect of the process is immediate, highly effective

The lo contour knob: As the name suggests, it affects mainly the low frequencies

knob the process: at high frequencies I think (I know something personal but not too much as the result is there!)
In the end (it's just a test 2 days that I have):

I put myself in the ass of my mpc 60, which has its particular sound with a sound somewhat altered anyway. I used the internal mixer to mix the MPC (just). In short: use the Master signal

What I get out of Maximizer: the signal returned as they like is cleaned, reinforced. Finally, by and large, the signal alterations suffered by the various sampling, treatments, ... I've done to make my instruments are as deleted, as each sound is enhanced, even without dénaturerl'essence, sound specific signal (for me especially the grain of the MBM 60 that I like, for example).

+ Deep bass frequencies better defined, more rounded, acute clearer, more precise

I hope I was clear and you have got the message ...

Be careful though: do not go there not as a bourrain (yeah what ...). It's all about finesse, to the ear.

OVERALL OPINION

In the end,

I think it's a great product that can be used both in mastering, and for mixing. For me, it can be put anywhere, but to use with intelligence anyway (yeah not have to be stupid either, this product is not an end in itself).

Anyway, I think once you've tasted, it becomes indispensable.

Value for money: great in OCCAZ, but the new price is not so high either ... So I would say excellent.
I can only advise you.
