This affordable amp modeller gives the big boys a run for their money

- Michael Astley-Brown

Amp modelling has truly come of age, but the problem for many is the price. It was a breath of fresh air, then, when Chinese effects underdog Mooer launched its Micro Preamps last year, serving up a variety of individual modelled preamps for £99 apiece. Now, it’s packaged the whole lot together in one gig-friendly unit that might just revolutionise your rig: meet the Preamp Live.
