It's a 3-way crossover that applies a delay to the highest band and a slightly shorter delay to the mid-band while leaving the low band alone. That's all it does, though you have control over the levels for mixing the band back together. It's designed to help compensate for the poor alignment of drivers within large speaker cabinets (notice how the tweeters are further forward than the woofers?) used for PA systems. They have no place in any kind of studio.
only the aphex 250 plays with timing for bass signals, adds punch when timing is proper or look ahead.
all others are harmonic enhacers/gererators/regenerators.

creativity is the limit
