This Drive has THE SOUND. EAE Limelight V2 | Secret Weapons Demo & Review



Published
Despite what is implied by my vast collection of stereo reverbs and delays, the bedrock of my musical identity is firmly seated in the emo and post hardcore scene of the mid 00's. Thats where I cut my teeth and, as an adult, it's still where I find the most joy in music. The Limelight is a collaboration between Electronic Audio Experiments and post-hardcore heavyweights Touchè Amore that seeks to nail the marriage of single coil guitars and fender amps to the driving and blistering intensity of punk infused hardcore. And nail it it does. This 2in1 features a fantastic clean boost with a subtle bass roll off and a three voiced BB-esque (but only vaguely) drive that offers an almost dizzying array of tonal variety and gain ranges. The Limelight nails "the sound" for me.
