The Mammut Low-End Shaper is a revolutionary analog audio processor designed to tame, glue, and enhance frequencies up to 200 Hz. With unparalleled precision, it allows musicians, audio engineers, and producers to sculpt their low-end frequencies like never before. This all-analog stereo device seamlessly integrates modern convenience, offering plugin-based remote control and recallability via an Ethernet connection. At the heart of Mammut is a proprietary compressor/expander circuit designed to generate harmonics that refine and enhance low-frequency content while retaining punch and clarity. Additional features such as high-pass filtering, a variable low-shelf EQ, and a powerful saturation stage make it an essential tool for bass shaping in both studio and live environments. Key Features: High-Pass Filter: Precision filtering from 16 Hz to 44 Hz with selectable slope settings Variable Low-Shelf EQ: Custom-designed EQ for accurate low-frequency sculpting from 26 Hz to 106 Hz Compressor/Expander Core: Independent attack/release controls, soft knee option, and makeup gain from -6 dB to +6 dB Saturation Module: Selectable odd (transformer) and even (silicon) harmonics with pre/post compression switching Crossover & Listen Mode: Frequency separation up to 200 Hz with dedicated harmonic listening option Relay-Based Bypass: Hard bypass at inputs and outputs for a completely transparent signal path Remote Plugin Control: Seamless control over Ethernet with VST3, AU, and AAX support Flexible Operation: Dual mono or M/S mode for creative channel interactions Advanced Sonic Precision: The Mammut incorporates a unique high-pass filter topology that emphasizes desirable bass content while eliminating sub-frequency rumble. Its custom low-shelf EQ mimics the vintage boost-cut technique, delivering enhanced sonic textures that behave differently than traditional EQs. Proprietary Compression/Expansion: With ratios from 1.25:1 to 4:1 for compression and 1:1.25 to 1:4 for expansion, the Mammut’s compressor/expander circuit ensures precise frequency control. The independent attack and release settings provide the flexibility to tame bass-heavy sounds without sacrificing punch, while the sidechain circuit enhances the material musically with added harmonics. Integrated Saturation Stage: This module brings warmth and character to your audio. Select from transformer-driven odd harmonics or silicon-based even harmonics for sonic versatility. The pre/post compression switch allows further creative possibilities for dynamic signal processing.
