Good article! I'll have to try that technique sometime...

It still blows my mind how people throw money away on these $3000 "Exciter" units...

Well, it's not the same technique as the Exciter, since I believe that the original thing adds artificial harmonics. This, on the other side, brings existing high harmonics to the front.

But the result seems to be pretty similar, he even says is more natural.
