The Ibis from Crane Song is an analog stereo/dual mono equalizer with 4 bands and low-cut per channel. A special feature is the name of the controls: note names and frequencies at a glance. This is to be achieved above all by the
"Translation" between musician jargon and sound engineer jargon. Also the bandwidth control has a similar name - the settings range from 0.2 octaves to 4 octaves per band and a boost / cut range of 12 dB.
Besides the useful feature the sound is of course in the foreground. While the exact low-cut filter works excellently in the range of 20 Hz - 150 Hz at 12 or 24 dB per octave, the individual bands provide a wonderful analog sound. In addition, the Ibis EQ - like most Crane Song products - works with Class A switching technology. At the same time, a"Color" function is available to the user, which can be used either for the entire signal path or for each individual frequency band.
The stable housing, the flexible, intuitive processing possibilities and the unique sound make the IBIS equalizer from Crane Song a very good companion in the studio area.
