   nook, this puppy is amazing.

   alex the engineer:
   

   Icelandic based engineer Alex Somers has purchased two Thermionic Culture models, the new Phoenix S/C side chain stereo valve compressor, and the Rooster stereo valve pre-amp,EQ, distortion.
   Alex used the units recently on the new Jonsi album and also has close working relationship with fellow Icelandic band Sigur Ros. < hahaha, that
   The Rooster
   "The Rooster is easily the most creative pre-amp around… the attitude knob is a dream come true! I love putting the whole drum stem into it during mixing, sounds so dirty!"
   The Phoenix
   "A perfect stereo bus compressor. sounds BIG."
