Grace Design Roxi & Felix Preamps | Full Demo and Review

We gave the latest offerings from Grace Designs a run: the ROXi & FELiX2 Preamplifier Pedals.
Back in the '90s, brothers Mike and Eben Grace were grooving to the tunes of the Grateful Dead, but they weren't just fans; they were Deadheads on a mission. Fuelled by their passion for capturing live performances, these brothers set out to revolutionise the audio industry. Fast forward to today, and Grace Designs stands as a beacon of quality and innovation in the world of sound engineering.
The FELiX2 is a dual preamplifier tailored for stringed instruments. Built with the stage performer in mind, this box of wonders offers two channels that can be utilised separately or blended seamlessly. With a comprehensive selection of EQ options, including high pass filters, low shelves, and parametric mid EQs, the FELiX2 puts precise sound sculpting at your fingertips. Whether you're strumming a guitar or plucking a banjo, this preamp delivers unparalleled control and clarity.
Next up is the ROXi - a compact yet mighty standalone mic preamp. Designed to meet the demands of vocalists and instrumentalists alike, ROXi boasts pristine sound quality and versatile EQ settings. The inclusion of an FX send and return adds a layer of creativity, allowing performers to add their own personal touch to every note. From soulful crooning to blistering guitar solos, ROXi ensures that your sound is heard with clarity and precision.
We had the pleasure of testing these preamplifiers in action during a live demonstration by Jas and Owen. The FELiX2, with its dual channels and comprehensive EQ options, allowed them to effortlessly switch between the banjo and vocals to tailor their sound to perfection. The ROXi delivered crystal-clear vocals with a touch of reverb, adding depth and dimension to the performance. From the stage to the studio, the FELiX2 and ROXi proved to be indispensable tools for any musician looking to take their sound to the next level.

These answer a very specific problem incredibly well!

I wish I could afford one. I am doing my best using onboard fishman aura (from 15 years ago) and an HX effects to cut out crap frequencies. It's tedious and mediocre at best.
