An awful lot of FILTER CAPS there, for those who know anything about the inner workings of your gear, that's a very strong hint. Different styles of caps. I'm guessing some are filtering, some are coupling. Either way, there's color modules involved. But I like how they took a play from my design book and used white soldermask and black ink.

It's mashed potatoes! Just a big prank, Brad made mashed potatoes. An awful lot of FILTER CAPS there, for those who know anything about the inner workings of your gear, that's a very strong hint. Hmmm...Food... Filter... Caps... Wait... portaFILTER... CAPpuccino'S... is this the official LTL Espresso Machine? LTL Espresso? Now we're talking!

You're one of the few who would recognize all that, but being one of our resident genii here, I expected as much! LOL You never disappoint.

My educated guess is silverbullet with color module support.

Oh, wait...evidently that Hitmaker 4000 card has been out for a while. Doh! In that case, maybe my initial hope / suspicion about this new box might be true πππ

More knobs. Filters. New PSU which probably made it's real debut with the D3a from Audioscape which is a rack mounted 500 unit. This is a big bad expanded Chop Shop Eq with Colour modules. Or Chopshop mashed with silver bullet thing. Something with the Chopshop though.

Also the real question we should be asking is how this count down works.
1 is tomorrow..does that mean liftoff is tomorrow? or isn't liftoff at 0 so that would be Saturday.
This is the most important question of the day..

I've been using them for all my board designs since the very first Chop Shop PCB went into production back in 2013. It's been part of the LTL signature look from day 1. Still looks killer. cheers, Brad

Oh, I assumed tomorrow was the announcement anyways; figured that the maintenance was a matter of adding a new product, deleting the old one, etc.
Initiating liftoff on the count of zero and all.

Beautiful piece of gear. I think you guys went for the right direction to improve what was already a classic.
I'm sure it'll be a success.

Silver bullet v2! Silver Bullet mk2 - Evolution of a Modern Classic The Silver Bullet mk2 is the culmination of over 7 years of dreaming, designing, and building: a flagship 2RU stereo Bus/Line/Mic Tone-Amp that brings real analog mojo and streamlined workflow to the modern DAW-based studio. The mk2 maintains the hallmark intuitive workflow and sought after sonics of the original mk1 unit thanks to the familiar cascading A/N Tone-Amp architecture, abundance of I/O and the built-in matrix router. The mk2 improves and expands on this concept via the addition of: β
User customisable MOJO A 3rd MOJO amp option with 2 x HITMAKER 4000 Colour modules preloaded. β
Expanded EQ Section An expanded 3 band Baxandal style EQ with a Pultec inspired low end and a smooth and expensive sounding top end. β
Stereo Image Enhancement A new analog ASPECT RATIO circuit for instant musical enhancement of stereo width, height, and clarity of your mix. β
Improved Metering An upgraded 20 segment stereo meter giving accurate visual feedback on signal level, peaks and overs. β
Fully Balanced Inserts Simplify integration with outboard equipment by using using standard TRS cables. β
Hypermatter PSU A redesigned and improved power supply able to render dynamic sound with revealing detail, dimension, and gut-punching authority. Pre-order Now Silver Bullet mk2 is available for preorder now while stock lasts. Silver Bullet mk2 - $2599 Visit the Louder Than liftoff website here for more info store.louderthanliftoff.com/pro.../silver-bullet-mk2
