Add dynamic saturation and overdrive effects to your musical productions and creative content with Boost X from INITIAL AUDIO, a powerful plug-in for your DAW. Unlike traditional saturation effects that offer a one-size-fits-all approach that never changes, Boost X's sophisticated algorithm can react dynamically to the input signal, applying just the right amount of distortion at precise threshold settings. This nuanced processing method helps to preserve the dynamics of the original performance, allowing even quiet sounds to be overdriven without any gain in volume. Boost X also compensates for perceived loudness, bringing the loudness down even further—adding nice, rich harmonics to your sound without destroying the balance of your mix.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. can I get one with frequency range band B or range D?

A: No, the B (626 - 668 MHz) and D (780 - 822 MHz) frequency bands are not available for use in the United States and components for these ranges are not sold by US dealers.

Q: 2. Work with shotgun mic?

A: Hello Don - the SKP 100 G4 will work with shotgun microphones that feature battery power, such as the Sennheiser MKE 600. If you'd like to use this transmitter with a microphone that requires phantom power, please look into the SKP 500 G4 as this will provide +48V for shotguns like the MKH 416 and MKH 8060. Please note that this item is a transmitter and you'll need a full system, including a receiver, for your shoot. Options for consideration might include the EW 100 ENG G4, EW 500 FILM G4 or EW 500 BOOM G4.

Q: 3. How many versions of this product are there? And what are the differences between them?

A: There are 3 versions. The standard FetHead for dynamic and ribbon mics, the FetHead filter that adds a high pass filter to the standard design, and the FetHead Phantom which is for use with condenser mics (and does not have the high pass filter).

Q: 4. Will the model work with the Sennheiser G3 wireless receivers?

A: Yes it will. The G4 series are completely backwards compatible.

Q: 5. Will this work with the AVX system? If not is there any similar product that will?

A: Unfortunately it will not. They are in 2 different frequency blocks. There is nothing like this transmitter for the AVX. If you need one you can get a Rode wireless that has only a mic plug and a receiver. This is the B&H part number B&H # RONSH.

Q: 6. will this work with a plain Shure SM-58?

A: Yes it will with the Shure SM-58 as well as any other dynamic microphone on the market that sports an XLR connector.

Q: 7. Plan on using this product with my Rode NTG2 and dr-40. which version do i buy?

A: I do all of my low end noise removal with SoundSoap or Izotope RX5. I would go with the version without the high pass filter. If you are using a ribbon mic that requires you to use a lot of gain, then the version with the high pass filter would probably serve you well.

Q: 8. Will this work with the EW100-S3 model?

A: The SKP-100 G4 transmitter will work with EW100 G3 receivers as long as the frequency bands match.

Q: 9. Will this work with tv news style interviewer microphone and Sennheiser G3 wireless system?

A: If your mic is a Dynamic microphone with an XLR connection, it will work. While this G4 Plug-on transmitter is backwards compatible with the G3 Wireless systems, make sure you order it with the same Frequency range as your existing G3 wireless system as otherwise it will not work.

Q: 10. I am considering to order a FetHead for my dynamic mic and wondering if there will be any sound or gain difference between 1) when plugging the FetHead into my mixer/recorder(Zoom F4) first and then plugging the XLR cable to the mic and 2) when plugging the cable into my Zoom F4 first and then plugging the FetHead into my mic? I am not sure if plugging the FetHead into the mixer/recorder first is even possible or not because all the YouTube reviewers use their FetHeads directly on their mics.

A: if you plug in the fathead at your mixer, you would be amplifying the noise level from your cable run as well as your mic level. The fatheads use is to get it as close to your micrphone as possible, prior to your cable run. If youre simply trying to boost gain on a short , noiseless cable run, either end is fine I suppose.
