MW1 Studio Tool - Reviewed in MIX Magazine!

2008-03-28T10:28:52Z

Barry Rudolph reviewed the MW1 Studio Tool in the March 2008 issue of MIX Magazine.

Here's an excerpt for you...

"The MW1 is a highly flexible studio tool that fosters creativity in any engineer/producer with its universal connectivity and level/impedance-matching abilities. I was able to configure the box in a variety of ways with no added noise or loss of tone."

The MW1 Studio Tool in Premier Guitar Magazine...

Meet the MW1 - in the 2008 March Issue of Premier Guitar Magazine
Read the full review online.

Here is an excerpt:

"What the MW1 has done is totally streamline my guitar recording process. In one single-space rack box, I’ve got a high-end D.I., amp splitter, re-amp unit and a simple, great way to use my stompboxes in a mix. Plus, it keeps all of my cables neat and out of the way, which lets me think about nothing but the performance."

MW1 Studio Tool reviewed in Pro Sound News

2008-01-11T11:04:12Z

Rich Tozzoli reviewed the MW1 Studio Tool in the December 2007 issue of Pro Sound News. Read the review on page 32.

Here's an excerpt:

'I can't speak enough about the overall "usefulness" of this unit. It's a killer multipurpose tool for recording guitar, bass and keys. The DI sounded tremendous on all my guitars, and I got huge deep tones out of my old Fender Precision, baritone guitar and even a lap steel. The clean boost is great for sending pristine audio to my amps and I can't wait to do some re-amping. Bravo to the folks at Creation Audio Labs and Michael Wagener.'

King's X and Michael Wagener stopped by Creation Audio Labs

2007-02-08T14:06:13Z

Michael Wagener stopped by Creation Audio Labs yesterday with some special guests - DUg Pinnick, Ty Tabor and Jerry Gaskill of King's X.

We installed a Redeemer circuit in one of Ty's guitars and he left with a MK.4.23 Boost pedal - This made everyone happy because that meant Ty could finally return dUg's MK.4.23 (apparently he had "borrowed" it when dUg told him to check it out and it never made it's way back to dUg's side of stage).

We enjoyed the time with them. They are currently in the studio with Michael Wagener working on their next album. Keep your eyes and ears open for more details. Check out their website www.kingsxonline.com.

Introducing the MW1 Studio Tool, NAMM 2007, the Orlando Guitar Show (Jan. 26-28th) and Real Amping ™

2008-02-04T01:44:57Z

Happy New Year from Creation Audio Labs!

We just returned from the 2007 NAMM show in Anaheim where we debuted our newest product - the MW1 STUDIO TOOL!

We asked WORLD RENOWN ENGINEER / PRODUCER MICHAEL WAGENER what he wanted in his studio to get the guitar tone he is famous for. Then we designed it. Now it is available to you!

This new Real-Amping™ device takes re-amping to a whole new level! Pro-audio meets instrument level signal with a transformerless D.I., ultra clean boost, impedance adjustment and plenty of features/uses to make the recording process smoother! Like all Creation Audio Labs products you won't believe just how transparent the MW1 really is... Hearing truly is believing! Check out www.creationaudiolabs.com/mw1studiotool for more details!

More information on Real Amping™ services can be found at www.michaelwagener.com.

We are now accepting PRE-ORDERS with an expected ship date of APRIL 2007!

We'll post photos from the NAMM show soon!

Introducing the MK.4.23 BOOST pedal - Redefining clean, transparent boost for guitar and bass!

2006-06-26T10:22:25Z

Click here to visit the official product webpage. Click here to order!

Simply put, this is the cleanest, quietest and most sonically transparent boost pedal out there. You won't believe what you hear... and what you DON'T hear!

The MK.4.23 gives you from zero to +24dB of crystal clear boost to dial in to your liking. Noiseless boost with no signal distortion, zero tone coloration and quiet switching when you engage the circuit. YOUR TONE, only more of it without adding the noise typically associated with an increase in gain.

We also think you'll like what you see. The sleek, 16 gauge stainless steel body and white LED's quite literally reflect premium materials and craftsmanship that will attract as much attention as your tone does. The small footprint and pedal board friendly design of the MK.4.23 means that you can add mega punch to your effects arsenal with minimum impact on your pedal board or gig bag space.

Use the MK.4.23 as a straight forward boost pushing your amp, as a gain tool in front of your pedals, as a volume boost after your pedals or even in your effects loop on your amplifier for killer power amp boost!

The MK.4.23 can also be used directly to mixers/recorders with high fidelity results. World renown producer/engineer Michael Wagener uses this unit at his WireWorld Studios (www.michaelwagener.com). The Creation Audio Labs MK.4.23 and the REDEEMER circuit were both used extensively on the new Skid Row album slated for release in late 2006. Get more album details at www.skidrow.com.

The MK.4.23 BOOST from Creation Audio Labs:
For guitar and bass
Zero to +24 dB boost
No signal distortion
No tone coloration
No phase reversal
Quiet switching
Hand wired and built in the U.S.A.

We recommend an external power supply (>80mA tip negative) such as the Visual Sound 1-Spot.
An internal battery is optional.

The MK.4.23 officially launches at Summer NAMM in Austin, July 14th-16th 2006. Come visit us at Booth 1338 and test drive the MK.4.23 BOOST and the REDEEMER circuit!
