The Michelangelo is def worth a demo. Very broad, interactive curves, not surgical at all, but lots of extra tricks up its sleeve like the transient manipulation and tube compression. Awesome tweakable sweetening EQ.I’m trying to create a mental bookmark to come back to this.Haha, I have! Here's what I wrote about the Michelangelo on page 7:Tone Projects Michelangelo transient/body separation sounds very good to me. Have you tried it?It's incredibly hard to divide a signal into transients and sustain in real time without artifacts. I love most Eventide gear but the SplitEQ sounds like ass IMO.
Yup, the Michelangelo works completely differently than the SplitEQ, and it does not produce artifacts, but you have less control over the transients and sustain.
Per the manual, the transient processing in the Michelangelo does not use FFT, and if you open a band's popup menu to adjust the transient detection, the controls are "sensitivity" and "duration", so it sounds like it's operating in the amplitude and time domains only. This also makes sense because you can't for example solo the entire "Tonal" half of the source material as you can with the SplitEQ, which is where the artifacts really jump out.
I have SplitEQ from the anthology, but haven’t used it yet. Michelangelo Is something I wanted to test out.
I as I record more stuff from modular, I find more reason to want finer control over different things than when recording traditional instruments.
