I wonder what Mike and Jeff think about this. I find it amusing as the even things like the quality of knobs used seem cheaper than the DIY versions.

 

[emrr]

wow

 

[Potato Cakes]

Exactly

Love it.

I wonder if we can get a GS thread going debating does it "sound" like the original.

Who are Mike and Jeff and what clone is this based on?

Which meaningless groupdiy meltdown and/or sales person disappearance did I miss this time.

I'm assuming hairball and capi!

I'm actually suprised warm audio hasn't done an 1176 in 500 series yet.

Wasn't BAE one of the first guys to make a killing off racking old neve modules? I don't think I have seen a commercial product of his out in the field besides racked neve and api modules.

Maybe we will have an ssl inspired compressor by BAE in the next year too.  ;D

CAPI FC526 is an 1176 dreamt as if API had made it.

Then that makes me late to the party...

Wow there's even a "slam" 'all buttons in' switch.

 

[pucho812]

Well it looks quite similar to the capi fc526 on the outside except for different style knobs and butons. I can't confirm the inside at this time.
