The nvelope Dual-Channel Analog Transient Shaper by elysia is a rack-mounted dynamics unit that packs the power of three processors into a single box, rendering it a rewarding tool for tracking and mixing engineers. Utilizing custom-designed, high-quality electronics, the nvelope is a powerful and useful transient shaper, allowing for precise control over the envelope of a signal by shaping its attack and sustain levels. Born from the transient shaping technology invented by company founder Ruben Tilgner in the late '90s, elysia has improved upon this tech with an intuitive user interface and high-grade, discrete analog circuitry.
By adjusting the attack, percussive sounds such as slapped bass, drums, or piano can either be tamed or accentuated, while the sustain adjustment allows for precise control over room sound and space; blend sounds into mixes more easily than ever. Full range mode delivers big drum sounds or edgy guitar attacks with just a few turns of a knob, while dual band mode offers a more granular approach with separate attack and sustain controls for multiple frequencies. When dynamics processing isn't necessary, the whole transient shaper can be bypassed to transform the nvelope into a dual-band shelving equalizer. Hand built and tested in Germany to exacting standards, the nvelope by elysia is a singular, top-notch processor that performs well beyond its price point.
