Is The BBE Sonic Maximizer Simply a Bass and/or Treble Boost?
Furthermore, the ''Sonic Maximizer'' is not the only device that performs similar phase shifting or group delay. Thus, it may be "overcompensating" or "undercompensating"; and there is no way to adjust this. Even if there was, you would have to analyze every piece of your signal chain to know the "correct" value; and BBE would have to provide the technical details of how their product works for you to dial it in. It seems they are instead content to keep the device shrouded in mystique and hype, perhaps hoping to fool gullible customers who don't take the time to really test their claims into believing they are improving their tone.
 
I have personally owned the ''Sonic Stomp'' pedal, and I found it to be useless for guitar applications. For reference, the Low Contour control's EQ is centered around 50 hZ and the Process's around 5 khZ.
