Cranborne CARNABY HE2
The Carnaby HE2 is an evolution of the Carnaby 500, incorporating Cranborne Audio's patented HarmonicEQ® concept. It is a three-band stereo analog equalizer capable of sculpting sound through harmonic saturation instead of traditional filters.
This technology enriches signals with natural musical coloration while maintaining the precision and control of a classic parametric equalizer. The Carnaby HE2 also features full digital control (USB and Ethernet), mid/side processing, and hardware inserts per channel, making it ideal for mastering, sound design, and professional hybrid studios.
