I’ve had it for 4 days, of course an update will follow if need be. This is an all-analog amp, with a 12ax7 preamp tube and a 12ax7 power tube. As the original output must be around 1 watt, its re-a…
Dreadbox Erebus - "A real chameleon with a vintage, mellow sound"

M-Audio Solaris - "Excellent Mic at any Price"

Sample Logic CG Infinity - "The melodic sound and ambiance that I love for sound for picture!!!"
I use it with Windows 10 and Cubase 8.5 on an i7 6700k through Kontakt 5.5 with 16 GB of RAM – and sometimes it’s not even enough, which is a real pity. It also can be used with the Kontakt Player. …

Parker Guitars Fly Bass 5 - "the best playing and feeling bass ever"

Parker Guitars Fly Deluxe - "I will never play a different guitar"

Roland D-05 - "The D-50 was my all time favorite keyboard, the D-05 reminds me why"
I've never thought much about the boutique series, especially since they're only 4 voice, although I'd consider one of the Juno models. Anyway, when I saw the re-issue of the D-50 I was very excited…
Roland D-05 - "Probably the best in the series"
Hi, I’m not a big fan of Roland’s Boutique series. I’ve owned the Juno, the Jupiter and the TR-09, and I’ve long hesitated before getting this D-05 in loving memory of my good ol’ D-550 ;-) Wel…
