Value For Money : Excellent
It's actually a double mono dynamics processor (x2 so ..!) Tube (100% analog sound).
It has two input / output XLR and jack 6.35. It's a 19 "one.

UTILIZATION

Operation is very simple: a drive, a charisma, an output and a bypass on each tract. Rglage rate and color saturation (which can be pushed into a corner with no maximum saturation of the speakers thanks output, which allows "dirty" sound or not if DSIR) lamps knob with one (drive) for example.
The rglage can be done "by ear" in the limited buttons (but sufficient), and therefore have control pretty quickly!
The manual is simple but only in German and English.

SOUND QUALITY

It's the bomb! The German high-end quality in short, is a dynamics processor very SPECIFICATIONS,
which actually allows to add the warmth and color tubes Stereo or mono signal (x2), while "boosting" the same signal fawn trs really works! I use it as an insert on my soundcraft ES (end of string on the output mix) to color a "pure analog sound gron" my mixes, live or prods that kind of sound card my Mac (despite In the words of the opinion below, the charisma2 is primarily used this type of treatment, but since this processor is set more "ear" ... do as the new user can be trs not good lol) So really trs trs useful on a digital signal that will always be pure, it is true but a little flat and empty without the warmth and analog sound EHJV lamps, this brings to perfection the Charisma2, if that is what is desired in the sound of his productions as I do ..!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year + and I love the "potato", the warmth and color it brings to my sound gnrale!
It is so easy rgler (with a good ear!), Even for a nophyte (like me actually). It is a seller of a Paris shop that had spoken to me after my search for solutions in this direction to boost my sound (too low digital and my taste), it was more than this "solution" does not increase the volume btement gnral (not saturated), what really makes this processor rev property. Otherwise they must be ordered and wait at least three weeks because the demand for assembled Allemage (hand-made, class !!!). I've been OCCAZ in France by a former importer in SPL, model expo nikel and not too expensive (300) saw the original price (in 450), which remains an excellent qualitprix saw the machine.
We had spoken to me I had information on it, I tried one and I got it, if I had bought a processor of this type (which nalready no other brand I know ), it's clear I would re-the same choice! View or invest in a Charisma 8 (my rve ..!).
