Aural Xpanders

In the art of audio sound capture, the recording engineer must contend with and balance many sonic issues (external noise bleed, structure-borne resonance, off-axis colorations) in order to arrive at sounds that are truly sonically robust.

Aural•Xpanders give the recording engineer a high degree of control by providing the capability to filter the undesirable external overtones that tend to push the engineer to over-process on the back-end during the mixing stage.

Aural•Xpanders offer the recording engineer a means of tonal control and passive filtering before the sound ever hits the signal path and before ever reaching for a knob or booting-up a plug-in.

Aural Xpanders include:

• 1 x 14" Xpander baffle
• 2 x 8" Tri•Xpander (triangular) baffles
• 4 x 6" Trap•Xpander (trapezoidal) baffles
• 6 x PlatFeet™ structural resonance interrupters (enough to float 2 tripod/round-based mic stands or 2 cymbal stands or 2 floor toms)

Platfeet™ - Used as sound isolation platforms for mic stands, floor toms or cymbals, platfeet absorb structural borne resonance before it ever reaches your microphone.

Xpander™ and Tri-Xpanders™ - Isolate your microphones during the recording process to eliminate external noise bleed and filter those undesirable external overtones.

Trap-Xpander™ - Place directly behind the drum mic to virtually eliminate off-axis colorations between your snare and high-hat.
