Yeah Josh has a good sense for production and he and the others have really upped their game.
Not a pedal as such, but it would replace my colour box pedal (as well as my current audio interface) with real Neve 1073 sound
It is a few thousand US$ beyond what I would pay for an interface, but would be so nice to have in home studio
SSL does this too with the SSL2/2+; It has a SSL4k button to add, basically, noise. But pleasing warm SSL 4000 noise
Plus its knob goes to 11.
same type of thing (and real SSL desks are awesome) but its a toy compared to the Neve one
that Neve is straight to the top of the class sh*t
Sure, and you pay for it, just saying it’s a neat idea SSL is kind of doing now too.
It’s also more or less the last thing I would want in a recording interface (I never used 4k mode on my SSL2) - I would much rather record clean and optionally add the Neve or SSL tonal qualities via plugins and EQ later. But YMMV.
I could see this being awesome on a DI though for live use.
That SSL stuff is great semi-pro gear (would love to have some) but the Neve is true pro level, it is basically pulling a real Neve 1073 channel strip out of a real pro studio desk along with a top level digital audio interface
it is crazy good but it is out of my league for gear level needed by a long way anyway
From what you have described about your music production (in other posts), I honestly think you would love it alot!! if you ever tried it, but I totally get your record clean as possible philosophy too
Yep no arguments, Neve gear is famous and top notch. And I would love it.
But in terms of workflow practicality (for me, let me be clear I am not projecting here, you do you ), it’s also one of those things like a REDDI that, while awesome to have and definitely top notch, is also something doable for a whole lot less in a nice controlled home environment.
The REDDI is actually a good analog. If I owned a club, the stage would definitely be wired to the mixer via REDDIs. But for here at my place, it’s way useless for my workflow and I can get the tonal quality via other means.
You might like the Neve 88m. It’s compact and much more affordable (though still expensive). There’s indeed a significant quality and price difference between entry-level, semi-pro, and pro-level gear, but the gap is narrowing due to better software as well.
thanks I will check it out
haven’t had a zoom in a long time, but good to see them still making solid stuff at a solid price
this video is really really long. it’s long because the guys just didn’t want to stop playing with this pedal, i have never seen them get this excited about anything before. really unique take on a multi-efx pedal.
Well finally. I wished for this pedal on this thread a couple years ago. It lives! Gregor just did an episode on it.
yeah I just watched that. it looks really fun and cool but I’m not sure how you would integrate it if you wanted to use it for more than as a go between for 2 pedals without cable swapping.
ok, I try to wait 24hrs after I see an interesting pedal before buying them…this has successfully stopped many impulse pedal buys in the past year
however I broke that rule here after seeing this XO pedal post only an hour ago I have already ordered one
I am looking forward to adding it to my signal chain already
lol the purr at the end did it for me
I used to be very tempted by this - to the point that I actually ordered one but had to cancel. If I still used hardware preamps I would 100% want this. Looks like a fun build too.

It’s a kit containing the preamp circuit of a Gallien-Kruger 400RB
That harp stuff was pure witchcraft!!
She made a simple synthesizer out of the pedals
