Big Vintage Sound, Without the Big Vintage Price Tag!

Nail that '70s sound! With the ME-1NV on your desktop, you've got an easy way into a more modern-classic British sound. This baby has all the integrity, accuracy, and "tunability" you'd expect from and old-school pre. And you'll be amazed at the sonic flexibility packed into this one, thanks to the impedance selector on the front panel. Go on and use the ME-1NV to go from crystal-clear tones to slightly warmer, rounder sounds. You can use the front-panel DI to warm up your guitar or sound modules. And, of course, you've got a microphone input to get your recordings into the pro leagues. With an ultra-quiet noise floor for practically "stealth" sound and super-rich, super-textured vocal sounds, the ME-1NV is your ticket for vintage "Big Iron" sound — with modern reliability. There's no question why this one is a best seller.
