Sculpt Your Sound with the nvelope 500

Reshape the sound of your tracks, stems, or entire mix with the elysia nvelope 500 analog transient shaper module. This unique, discrete Class A 500 Series EQ and dynamics processor lets you dial in the attack of your tracks to give them more or less punch in the mix. It's perfect for your drum buses, guitars, keyboards, and much more. The sustain control increases or decreases the sustain of your track, helping you place it where you want it in the mix. Add the perfect amount of highs or lows with the nvelope 500’s powerful frequency controls. The elysia nvelope 500’s 41-step pots makes precise settings recall and experimentation with new settings quick and easy.

Three modes of operation

The functional and flexible elysia nvelope 500 gives you three great modes of operation: full range, dual band, and EQ. Full range mode lets you tweak the attack and sustain of your track. Dual band mode gives you control of the attack and sustain, like full range mode, but adds frequency controls to determine the start and end frequencies that are affected. With EQ mode the nvelope 500 turns into a shelf filter where attack and sustain controls turn into cut/boost controls to dial in your ideal frequencies. You can also mix the channels of the elysia nvelope 500 to have one full range channel and one dual-band channel at the same time!

Dual mono or stereo linked operation

With dual mono and stereo functions, the elysia nvelope 500 adds even more flexibility. In dual mono mode, you can process the bass drum and snare on separate channels simultaneously. Tweak your synth track in stereo mode for punch and detail while setting a different EQ on each side. Sweetwater’s take: For single tracks to stems and full mixes, the elysia nvelope 500 is a powerful tool for sculpting radio-ready audio productions with your unique sonic signature.

Sweet

Wow, this unit does exactly what is advertised. I have only worked with this for a week now, and my first impression is it is great for percussion instruments. An absolute must for kick, snare and toms. This would be a great circuit on every channel of any analog console, especially for a live sound console. Very useful for being creative. I only wish the eq had a shelving setting. The eq is very smooth, but I could see myself tracking with it as a LP / HP filter for vocals, but not as a bell eq. All in all I am very impressed and thank you to Wayne at Sweetwater for turning me on to this gem.

Great Sound Shaper

Great for shaping the envelopes of your sounds just right. Can help bring out some bite and/or punch on instruments but especially useful on drums to make them huge or fit them more tightly into the space of a particular song. Some of what this unit does can be done on a standard compressor but if you want to bring your tone shaping to the next level and let the compressor worry about smoothing volume levels and really shape the transients, this unit is great. The shelving EQ sounds great too!
