Colombo Audio Electronics
Neural models of Colombo’s hand-built analogue pedals, with the controls of the originals.
Also on Anagram
Colombo Audio Electronics builds analogue pedals by hand, a tribute to the golden era of rock. Together with MOD, their sound became a collection of plugins: the tones of the originals, with the flexibility of a digital platform.
The pedals.
Plexi Breed
The sound of the plexi amp heads that made rock history. Two parallel gain stages: Normal, with body and low-end punch, and High Treble, the brighter channel. A toggle selects three models: JTM (the JTM45, with the sag of its rectifier valve), 1959 (the 100 W head, high headroom and detail) and 1987 (the 50 W, more distortion and a faster attack).
Lead Trilogy
British high gain of the 80s and 90s Marshall* heads, in three modes: Jubilee (asymmetrical clipping, sharp and creamy), 800 (loud and full of mids, it cuts through a band) and 900 (compressed and sustained, it brings out vibrato in lead lines).
Rocker 83
The 80s tone of the Rockman X100* pocket amp, with the controls of a normal distortion box. Edge gives a mellow crunch for rhythm; Dist is juicier, full of harmonics and sustain.
