Aguilar Amplification’s Limited Edition NYC Gold Skyline Tone Hammer Preamp pedal celebrates the company’s deep roots, with custom graphics encapsulating the essence of New York City. Each unit features a sharp platinum silkscreen over a matte gold sparkle finish. The Tone Hammer is an important preamp/direct box for any bassist’s toolbox. The Tone Hammer features fully sweepable midrange frequencies in addition to bass and treble controls. With the Tone Hammer’s D.I., players are set for either studio or stage. To give this tone shaping unit the ultimate flexibility, Aguilar Amplification has introduce its proprietary Adaptive Gain Shaping circuitry (AGS), which lets the player kick in an additional gain structure and EQ with the stomp of a button.
Yorkville Sound has added two models to its NX range of loudspeakers. The NX8P and NX12P (pictured) represent a modern update to this classic series, with advanced DSP, precise limiting, extended connectivity and superior sound. NX8P features an 8-inch woofer and 2,600 watts of peak power. For even more volume, the new NX12P offers a 12-inch driver and 4,850 peak watts. Both models work equally well as front-of-house speakers, monitor wedges or side-fill cabinets. They feature an onboard three-channel mixer so they can be used without an external console in small P.A. applications. Unique among the NX series, they also support Bluetooth audio, including wireless stereo playback between two cabinets.
