Sushi Box Effects Unveils Neptunium
A Compact Tube Preamp with XLR D.I. Sushi Box Effects has officially released the Neptunium, a compact yet powerful tube preamp designed for musicians seeking a high-quality direct input solution. The Neptunium takes inspiration from the acclaimed Noble preamp, channeling its signature warmth and clarity into a significantly smaller enclosure. A Miniature Powerhouse At the core of the Neptunium is the design philosophy behind Nobelium, Sushi Box Effects’ previous iteration inspired by the Noble preamp. While the Nobelium incorporated a full preamp with XLR D.I., the Neptunium focuses on refining the XLR output section into a more space-efficient package without sacrificing tonal integrity. The two-band boost-only tonestack, modeled after the classic Fender/Marshall/Vox EQ, offers a simple yet effective way to shape tone. With both controls at zero, users can achieve a flat response, ensuring versatility for various playing styles and instrument types. Key Features Final Thoughts With the release of Neptunium, Sushi Box Effects continues its tradition of crafting high-quality tube-based pedals that cater to gigging musicians and recording artists alike. Whether used as a warmth-enhancing DI box, a tube preamp for pedalboards, or a direct-to-interface solution for home recording, the Neptunium promises to deliver professional-grade tone in a compact footprint.
