A must for subtle magic..
Rostislav K. 14.10.2013
Collecting 8 ch summing mixer with these modules...If you need some secret weapon during tracking or mixing you will love it!
Sorry for abstract comments but I would call its sound as subtle magic!

Adding a quality layer
Razimza 22.03.2021
Great product as it adds an extra pleasing layer to the sound. I only wish there was a stereo unit (instead of doing same knob twisting twice).

Vibe machine
Paris Parasidis 26.01.2023
This unit (2 of them) is on every mix I do. I can't replicate them with plugins, they do something to the sound that I like a lot. The functionality is as much as needed and its easy to recall. Would love to get a 2 channel rack mastering version in the future

These Units are AMAZING
Carlos1988 14.11.2022
Since the very first day I bought them, I use them on 99% of my mixes. The bass and round sound that offers is something very unique. Very happy with my two Neves!
