lots of colour, but far from subtle

it is a great colour box, but the saturation is very bold. I like it on kicks, bass, and dirt mics. But not on anything fragile. I cannot recommend it for busses and surely not the 2-bus. Plugins sounded a lot cleaner and gave more control here. Though the TS500 is fun and nice to have in the tool kit.

Fantastic!

Very cool unit, as a 2bus master thing or to record some sources through it! Better than every software simulation!

Awesome!

For the record, I had never soldered before I bought my first Sound Skulptor kit (CP5176). My TS500 is a year old now, and still running strong! I use it on nearly everything as anything from light EQ and coloring to full on tape overdrive on vocals. Can be used in post processing too, but I try to get the sound in the ballpark on the front end.

Fantastic!

Brilliant unit. Bought two, easy build and set-up. Adds warmth and squeeze to everything, dial-able saturation. Sounds great on drumbus and mix bus. Thank you!
