Neunaber Audio Neuron - Gain Intelligence Preamp Pedal with Speaker Simulator

Neuron Gain Intelligence - Guitar Preamp w/ Speaker Simulator, Presets and MIDI

Organic tone meets cutting edge innovation.

Neuron achieves a seamless array of incredible amp tones in a compact pedal — from sparkling clean to heavy distortion and everything in between. A multistage, dynamic gain architecture yields unparalleled control over the desired amount of distortion — effortlessly producing harmonic structures that range from subtle to dense and complex. One of its most salient features is its feel, which is almost hyper-realistic when compared to an amplifier.

Neuron is the culmination of years of research and development. Neunaber studied the gain circuits of pedals and amps — both tube and solid state — to learn not only how they sound good, but why. Then they developed new and unique algorithms to test their findings, then refined these algorithms based on what they learned.

Their goal was never to emulate or mimic other gear. This would imply that there is no room for improvement — or at least, no room for unique greatness. Each technological medium has strengths and weaknesses, and to use one medium to emulate another denies its inherent power and versatility.
