The elysia xfilter Equalizer is a true linked stereo equalizer with the heart and soul of elysia's flagship EQ: the museq. The elysia xfilter gives you the expensive sound of an all class-A equalizer in a surprisingly affordable package, with a precise stereo image based on computer-selected, stepped pots and low tolerance film caps.
elysia's xfilter is serious about flexibility. It offers high and low shelf bands which can be switched into high and low cut filters with resonance, two mid peak filters with wide and narrow Q, plus additional passive LC stages with shielded coils for a glorious top end.
With its exceptionally open sound, straight transient projection and solid punch, the xfilter is the perfect match for your xpressor or any other piece of delicious outboard gear!
elysia xfilter Equalizer Features
- 100% Class-A Topology - Expensive boutique sound made affordable. Discrete input, output and mix stages plus the complete audio path running in constant class-A mode are the basis for an exceptionally transparent, wide and open sounding EQ
- True Stereo Operation - Two channels, just one set of controllers. As one of the few exceptions in the market, the xfilter processes both of its channels with just one set of controllers a true stereo linked EQ
- Resonance High & Low Cut Filters - Extremely useful secret weapons. The shelving filters can be switched into high and low cut filters with an additional resonance peak. Not ordinary, but extremely useful
- Switchable Filter Quality - Wide and narrow Q for the parametric mids. The quality of the peak filters can be switched from a wide to a narrow Q factor which remains independent from the setting of the gain controller
- Additional Passive High-Band - Magic LC polish for opening up the top end. The beautiful sheen only passive filters can deliver... the xfilter has it all. An additional LC filter with shielded coils gives you the 'Passive Massage'
- Stepped Controllers - All potentiometers on the xfilter have 41 steps, which is a great help for recalling your previous sessions fast and precisely
- Computer-Selected Potentiometers - Every single dual and quad layer pot we buy is measured with custom computer routines, and only the good ones go into production
- Special Low Tolerance Capacitors - Computer-selected for better stereo accuracy. The special series of film caps used for the xfilter performs twice as good as the industry standard in terms of component tolerance
- Ground Layer Shield - One of the four layers of both PCBs is a full copper plane which helps to reduce interferences caused by electric fields
- Stepped Controllers - Fast and easy recall guaranteed
- Made in Germany - Build quality without compromise
