Cranborne CARNABY 500
ABOUT THE PRODUCT
The Cranborne Audio Carnaby 500 marks a world first in the world of analog signal processing. It is the first Harmonic EQ™ analog equalizer in the 500 series format. Unlike traditional equalizers that manipulate the signal via filters, the Carnaby 500 uses harmonic saturation to amplify or attenuate frequencies.
This technology enriches audio sources, stems, and mixes by generating musical harmonics specific to each frequency band, delivering a rich, warm, and highly musical sound. The dynamic approach to equalization makes each adjustment interactive and organic, while maintaining an intuitive parametric EQ-style interface.
