Frequently Asked Questions

The 'LB' refers to the Class A discrete amplifier design, resulting in a richer, more saturated tone with increased headroom and harmonic content.
While it’s primarily an EQ, the gain stage provides a usable preamp function, especially when used in an insert path for subtle coloration and gain boosting.
Ideally, use it on individual tracks or small groups where you want to add warmth and character; avoid using it on entire stereo mixes unless you’re intentionally aiming for a vintage vibe.
