SPL BiG, the Stereo Image Bigger Maker is now available in 19″ rack format.
BiG Studio spectacularly enlarges the stereo image and opens up new creative ways of sound shaping.
BiG Studio expands the possibilities of sound shaping with a new tube circuit. The Tube Harmonics control refines the harmonic spectrum of every signal, making it more vivid, detailed and increased in size – bigger than life!
Visually, BiG Studio sports the black design of the SPL Studio series.
The internal audio voltage of +/-18V ensures great sound!
BiG [Studio] enlarges the stereo image in a new manner and opens up new creative ways of sound shaping.
Intuitive with just three controls.
Range
With the Range control, the frequency range which should be processed can be selected.
Stage
With the Stage control, the frequency range previously selected with the Range control can be moved backwards or forwards on the stereo stage.
Bigness
The Bigness control adjusts the intensity
of the stereo image shaping.
Black magic?
In BiG [Studio] a difference signal derived from the input signal is processed by an analog filter network before mixed back to the original signal in a special mixing stage. This is not only simple M/S processing but a completely different and new way of stereo-processing.
The processed stereo signal, when summed to mono, creates a clean mono signal without phase shifts, cancellations, or other unwanted artifacts.
Tube Magic
Tube Harmonics
The Tube Harmonics control adjusts the intensity of the harmonics generated in the tube.
Harmonics
When the Harmonics switch is activated, the tube circuit which generates harmonics is in the signal path.
If this switch flashes, the device is in “warm-up” mode. The tubes are being brought to the optimum operating temperature.
More bass!
The bass switch can be used to activate an additional bass boost
at the end of the BiG [Studio] processing chain.
The bass boost is performed by a filter similar to the one
used in the AirBass function of the SPL IRON Mastering Compressor.
Let's go!
PWR
The PWR LED indicates that BiG [Studio] is powered
and that the device is switched on via the On switch
on the rear of the device and is ready for operation.
On
The On switch activates BiG [Studio]. When activated, the switch lights up. If the device is in bypass mode,
the switch is not illuminated.
