Where guitar recording interface and valve preamp combine

The idea of recording our guitars in an easier, better-sounding and therefore more enjoyable way is not a new challenge, and companies have been keen to take it on, with varying degrees of success. The UK mixing console and interface experts Audient have teamed with cab emulation experts Two Notes for Sono, an interface that’s not just aimed squarely at guitarists, but offers potential use for players away from recording too. And some of the credit due for that belongs to its valve preamp.

Peer through the grill of Sono’s stylish metal housing and you’ll spy a full-voltage 12AX7 valve waiting to be fired up for action. You can dial in analog warmth for your tones with the gain control; either solo or alongside your own pedals. An onboard three-band EQ on the Sono furthers the tactile ‘amp’ feel.
