Mark Levinson, Cello’s founder realized that tone control adjustments were necessary to obtain the most natural, lifelike sound from many recordings.

Every recording engineer uses a monitoring system that is unique and because the tonal balance of each system is different, each recording is different. Recording engineers primarily use equalization to optimize tonal balance for the best sound on their system, hence the design of the Audio Palette.

The Audio Palette is capable of advancing musical realism of recorded music more than any other single component. When it’s used correctly, tonal balance can be corrected from the most delicate and subtle adjustments for the best recordings, to the most extreme and dramatic adjustments for vintage material to restore the vitality and life to recordings of music without sonic deterioration.

The Audio Palette unique controls can be used by record companies, mastering laboratories, and discriminating home listeners.
