Super Saturation Goodness!

Ohhh boy, this is the pre amp ALL pre plugins should aspire to be! It sounds great on pretty much anything. It pushes elements to the front of the mix. When you listen to it you just want to keep adding more and more! Highly recommend, I'd give it 100 stars if I could!

Versatile Saturation with Incredible Tone Control

Saturation and distortion plugins are my go-to tools. I can’t get enough of them in all their different styles and tones. The 280 PRE stands out because it’s incredibly versatile and easy to dial in for almost any mix. The character of the distortion is unique, and the adjustable parameters make it adaptable to so many situations. Plus, the high pass and low pass filters sound incredible. I’m not exactly sure why they work so well, but they can really shift the tonal balance of a track or bus in a remarkable way. I highly recommend giving it a try.
