This is an interesting product from my fellow Black Country folk at Laney, the Laney IRT Pulse is a tube driven boost pedal plus an audio interface that can connect to your DAW directly via USB and as an added bonus feature it also allows re-amping at the touch of a button. The IRT Pulse contains 2 ECC83 or 12AX7 tubes and features two modes REGULAR and HOT. Regular allows you to dial in a small amount of tube drive giving you a really nice amount of natural break up whilst hot mode switches you into real IRONHEART lead tone and everything in between. The IRT-PULSE comes equipped with a switchable on-board cabinet emulation – the same as the great sounding cabinet emulation as the IRT-STUDIO, meaning you can use the on-board emulation or record it dry and add an IR from you DAW.
“The USB2.0 Bidirectional interface simultaneously sends an amped and a dry signal to your DAW via different channels, allowing you to re-amp the dry signal later using the leadless re-amp feature – simply hit the re-amp button and your original dry guitar track is re routed via the USB socket back through the IRT-PULSE.”
