A new low in bass...
Maybe we should have called it the Booty Shaker or the Boom Machine, the Butt Buster or the Marquis de Sub. But when we saw how this processor finds low frequencies and never lets go, the name was obvious: GRIP.
Far beyond a simple EQ or tone control, GRIP's proprietary digital sub-harmonic synthesis algorithm actually creates sub-bass signals that are harmonically related to, but not present in, the original sound. Of course, dedicated knobs also give you instant control over the character and level of what's already there - all with a no-compromise audio path. It's a dream machine for remixers, car stereo buffs, club owners, or anybody who's serious about getting low down with the lowdown.
It's the Alesis GRIP. And don't make us tell you to get a, well . . . you-know-what on it.

Lo cut knob adjusts steep highpass filter for tone changes and to protect speakers
Balanced 1/4 in. stereo inputs and outputs, mono 1/4 in. sub-bass output
16-segment LED meters for input, gain reduction, and bass
1U rackmount
