Lovely MS feature
Anonymous 27.06.2016
I bought the Karacter out of pure curiosity as I already own a few other Elysia racks that I really love. It's a great piece of gear that adds dimension and color in a nice way, I really love the MS feature that do magic on most pads or strings. I don't think i will add it to my master console as i first thought but i'm sure that i will use it a lot on individual sounds or groups. Good stuff!

Karacter indeed
the uncle 21.02.2021
Love this unit, it sits on my master bus when mixing and it's used in the M/S mode to add different kinds of distortion/saturation and it can just elevate the sound to another level. It is super versatile with the possibility to do parallel processing. Can really recommend this unit to anyone looking for an intuitive and playful way to get more out of your sound and bring it alive.

It adds a lot of karacter
Josveiga 16.07.2023
This unit is really versatile. You can use it in solo instruments to add some color or in mixing and mastering applications. It could be really subtle or aggresive, depending on your needs. Highly recommended!

De entrada diré que tiene una calidad de construcción muy buena y que lo uso bastante más de lo que pensaba en el momento que lo compré.
Lo uso en mi home studio para saturar voces, pianos verticales y de cola y de tipo rhodes y wurli, órganos, sintetizadores, baterías (en cajas funciona muy bien)... tanto para darles algo de vida (sobretodo con instrumentos de plug-ins) como para crear efectos variados como el Lo-Fi.
Los controles son sencillos y la variedad de saturación que puedes aplicar es muy respetable, desde muy leve a casi una destrucción del sonido original, es más, ahora ya no uso saturatodores digitales por mucho que tenga que sacar señal del DAW a Hardware.

Pros: mucha variedad en la paleta de saturación(saturación estandar, tipo FET y tipo "Valvular") y de mucha calidad
Contras: su función es unidireccional, sirve para lo que es y ya está.
