Lighter, more open in the midrange, and with that little bit of extra presence around the snare and vocal area that mastering engineers often seem to love. They are not inexpensive at $4,500, however they are also competing with the reality of high-end monitors, room treatment, and the space needed to make all of that work properly.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember69\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">Audeze also had the <a href=\"https:\/\/sweetwater.sjv.io\/Bn73g4\">LCD-S20<\/a>, which I have been using as a replacement for the old Sony 7506 type of workflow. Closed back, practical, a little more forward, great for tracking and filming, and much more comfortable sonically than the usual \u201csession headphone that bites your head off\u201d situation.

The whole concept is brilliant, instead of just copying an Echoplex or another tape delay, it leans into the rack world, Lexicon PCM42 style weirdness, miscalibrated limiters, pumping repeats, crunchy feedback paths, and delays that feel alive under your fingers.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember72\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">That is always what I love about pedals like this. You play something simple, two notes, maybe a chord, and suddenly it sounds like a record.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember73\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">Electronic Audio Experiments also had some fantastic pedals of their own. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.electronicaudioexperiments.com\/pedals\/halberd\">Halberd<\/a> was loud, clear, raw, and not trying to be a Tube Screamer, Bluesbreaker, Rat, or anything else obvious. The Prismatic Wall was particularly inspiring, essentially the old studio trick of using a grand piano as a resonant reverb tank, turned into a pedal. Wrong in all the right ways.

That is a big deal when you are moving fast and trying to keep the creative energy in the room.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember77\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-64822 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/GrooveSynthesis3rdWave_03-MIFQyTRwO5uCKw7urMc_1PRwDGCKbVsJ.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"375\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/GrooveSynthesis3rdWave_03-MIFQyTRwO5uCKw7urMc_1PRwDGCKbVsJ.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/GrooveSynthesis3rdWave_03-MIFQyTRwO5uCKw7urMc_1PRwDGCKbVsJ-150x56.jpg 150w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/GrooveSynthesis3rdWave_03-MIFQyTRwO5uCKw7urMc_1PRwDGCKbVsJ-768x288.jpg 768w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/GrooveSynthesis3rdWave_03-MIFQyTRwO5uCKw7urMc_1PRwDGCKbVsJ-80x30.jpg 80w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/GrooveSynthesis3rdWave_03-MIFQyTRwO5uCKw7urMc_1PRwDGCKbVsJ-320x120.jpg 320w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/GrooveSynthesis3rdWave_03-MIFQyTRwO5uCKw7urMc_1PRwDGCKbVsJ-770x289.jpg 770w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/GrooveSynthesis3rdWave_03-MIFQyTRwO5uCKw7urMc_1PRwDGCKbVsJ-40x15.jpg 40w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/GrooveSynthesis3rdWave_03-MIFQyTRwO5uCKw7urMc_1PRwDGCKbVsJ-160x60.jpg 160w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/GrooveSynthesis3rdWave_03-MIFQyTRwO5uCKw7urMc_1PRwDGCKbVsJ-20x8.jpg 20w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/GrooveSynthesis3rdWave_03-MIFQyTRwO5uCKw7urMc_1PRwDGCKbVsJ-640x240.jpg 640w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/GrooveSynthesis3rdWave_03-MIFQyTRwO5uCKw7urMc_1PRwDGCKbVsJ-385x144.jpg 385w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">Then came <a class=\"RGJGMvQfeXbqYCuKFscEcQGjxIzjdhbqwc \" tabindex=\"0\" href=\"https:\/\/www.groovesynthesis.com\/?utm_source=chatgpt.com\" target=\"_self\" data-test-app-aware-link=\"\">Groove Synthesis<\/a>, which was one of those \u201cSuperBooth only\u201d moments where you suddenly find yourself standing in front of something that feels like several instruments at once.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember78\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">The starting point is the PPG Wave, that glassy, slightly odd, beautifully digital sound that defined so much music. Depeche Mode, Propaganda, those wonderful 80s textures that still feel futuristic. However, Groove Synthesis have taken that concept far beyond nostalgia. Classic analogue waveforms, PPG-style wavetables, modern high-resolution wavetables, sampling, modulation between the different engines, sequencing, effects, multiple outputs, and an MPC-style sequencer.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember79\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">What I loved was the explanation of why the PPG sounded the way it did. Not just \u201caliasing\u201d as a catch-all phrase, however the imaging created by the limitations of the original memory and playback system. Beautiful garbage at the top, harmonically related to the note, and absolutely part of the magic.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Groove Synthesis 3rd Wave Wavetable Synth: <a href=\"https:\/\/sweetwater.sjv.io\/enNK3D\">https:\/\/sweetwater.sjv.io\/enNK3D <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Groove Synthesis 3rd Wave Desktop: <a href=\"https:\/\/sweetwater.sjv.io\/X4NY04\">https:\/\/sweetwater.sjv.io\/X4NY04 <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Groove Synthesis 3rd Wave 8m Synth: <a href=\"https:\/\/sweetwater.sjv.io\/n4yLro\">https:\/\/sweetwater.sjv.io\/n4yLro<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"ember80\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">That is the spirit of SuperBooth.

That immediately hit me because, like so many of us, I grew up with those old receivers, the loudness button pushed in, the tone controls cranked, and records sounding larger than life. Physical Graffiti through a 70s hi-fi with the loudness button on is not the same experience as listening totally flat on a modern system.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember82\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">Jonathan has taken inspiration from those old Japanese receiver EQ circuits, the Baxandall tone stacks, variable loudness controls, inductor-based midrange, high and low pass filters, and turned it into something for the studio. Proper relay bypass, detailed analogue design, through-hole components where it matters, and the usual Little Labs attention to detail. It is exactly the kind of idea that makes you wonder why more people have not done it already.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember83\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-64825 size-full lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.28.37-AM-1-scaled.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"438\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.28.37-AM-1-scaled.png 1080w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.28.37-AM-1-150x61.png 150w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.28.37-AM-1-768x312.png 768w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.28.37-AM-1-1536x624.png 1536w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.28.37-AM-1-2048x831.png 2048w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.28.37-AM-1-80x32.png 80w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.28.37-AM-1-320x130.png 320w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.28.37-AM-1-770x313.png 770w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.28.37-AM-1-40x16.png 40w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.28.37-AM-1-160x65.png 160w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.28.37-AM-1-20x8.png 20w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.28.37-AM-1-640x260.png 640w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.28.37-AM-1-385x156.png 385w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.28.37-AM-1-1540x625.png 1540w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">There were also wonderfully niche discoveries everywhere. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thejankoproject.com\/\">Janko Design Keyboard Project<\/a> were showing their modern take on the Jank\u00f3 keyboard layout, where chords and scales retain the same shape in every key, much like moving a barre chord on guitar. As a guitarist, that makes immediate sense. It takes a minute for your brain to adjust visually, however once it clicks, it feels incredibly logical. For music theory, education, and ergonomic playing, it is a fascinating idea.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember84\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">Then there were the makers behind the makers. Davall Gears, who make knobs and control components for companies like SSL and Allen &amp; Heath. KMK Solutions with low-profile, heavy-duty cables and clever connectors. These are the sorts of companies you might never normally see at a huge trade show, however they are part of the reason our favourite gear feels the way it feels.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sifam Controls: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sifam.co.uk\/\">https:\/\/www.sifam.co.uk\/<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"ember85\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">That is what I love about SuperBooth.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ember86\" class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-64826 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.34.53-AM-scaled.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"897\" height=\"466\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.34.53-AM-scaled.png 1080w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.34.53-AM-150x78.png 150w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.34.53-AM-768x399.png 768w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.34.53-AM-1536x798.png 1536w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.34.53-AM-2048x1064.png 2048w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.34.53-AM-80x42.png 80w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.34.53-AM-320x166.png 320w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.34.53-AM-289x150.png 289w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.34.53-AM-770x400.png 770w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.34.53-AM-40x21.png 40w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.34.53-AM-160x83.png 160w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.34.53-AM-20x10.png 20w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.34.53-AM-640x333.png 640w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.34.53-AM-577x300.png 577w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.34.53-AM-17x9.png 17w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.34.53-AM-385x200.png 385w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-08-at-1.34.53-AM-1540x800.png 1540w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 897px) 100vw, 897px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ember-view reader-text-block__paragraph\">It is not just the finished product.
